Oh, Hello, Cary Joji Fukunaga! Internet Gushes Over True Detective Director After 2014 Emmys Win

Who is this man and where has he been hiding all of our lives?!

Here's a true mystery: Where has Cary Joji Fukunaga been hiding all of our lives?!

The True Detective director took the stage tonight at the 2014 Emmys to accept the award for Outstanding Directing, and quickly caught people by surprise because, well, he's hot.

Since his work is all behind the camera, many (even fans of the show) were stunned that the Cary Joji Fukunaga that stood before them now was a well-dressed, handsome young man with great facial bone structure and cute (albeit a little corny) jokes.

Oh, and there's that braid, but we're willing to overlook that.

With his win, Fukunaga quickly took over the Internet, becoming the Emmys crush for a number of viewers, which is fitting seeing how it is Man Crush Monday.

Take a look at some of the tweets that gush over the 37-year-old Oakland, Calif., native:
