In his Instagram post last June 21, Rocco called Jin Goo his "twin brother," however, the Kapuso actor clarified in an interview recently that he is not convinced he's a look-alike of the Korean actor.

"Brinush off ko lang no'ng 2016 pa kasi after umere ng Encantadia, nagte-trend pa rin 'yong pangalan ko. [Sabi ko,] 'sino si Jin Go?' I never saw [my resemblance with him.] Actually, until now hindi ko pa rin nakikita 'yung resemblance," Rocco shared with entertainment reporters during his pictorial for MMFF 2019 movie Write About Love last November 13.

Rocco then shared he was also surprised that even his DOTS Ph's co-star Jennylyn Mercado believes he and Jin Goo share similarities. "Si Jen no'ng unang day niya sa set [sabi niya,] 'Rocco, kamukha mo talaga si Jin Goo.' [Sabi ko,] 'ikaw din?'"
