Your first encounter with Korean actor Choi Woo-shik would either be when he played Kim Ki-woo in Academy Award winner for Best Picture 'Parasite', or as one of the passengers in hit zombie movie 'Train to Busan' back in 2016. Either way, this multi-faceted 31-year-old actor already has quite a number of films and TV shows under his belt. These days, he plays the role of young artist/illustrator Choi Ung in 'Our Beloved Summer', in which he acts alongside Korean actress Kim Da-mi of 'Itaewon Class' fame.

Don't be fooled by this baby-faced actor, as his roles rarely ever allow him to play innocent characters. His disarming charm, good looks, and boy-next-door vibe are what crushes are made of, but then again, Woo-shik has got a lot more tricks up his sleeve.
