Kaye Jan 04 2026 2:08 am What a great veteran actor. He delivers every role with excellence. AJ Aug 24 2025 9:05 pm After 5 years, he's back in another KBS2 weekend family drama. Anna Jun 09 2025 5:17 pm What an excellent transformation in "Heavenly Ever After"! Cheon Ho-Jin is a director of the Heaven and a king of the Hell at the same time. Jillibean Apr 28 2025 10:07 pm Working since 1977!! Amazing actor! Let's see, I counted them up. I've seen him in 21 dramas so far. Whenever I see him in another Korean drama I smile. I have confidence to know he will give me another great performance. Anne Lang Mar 09 2025 10:44 pm One of the few actually handsome male actors my age that takes care of himself too! He’s an amazing actor. Would like to be in his Fan club? Abundant Life Feb 21 2025 7:06 am So believable in My Golden Life. Best Acotor. watching from Africa kdrama lover Jan 04 2025 3:25 pm Really love his character in My Golden Life!! Please stay healthy and I can't wait for your other drama!! Der Nov 27 2024 6:19 pm He’s the best! Probably one of the best Korean actor in the showbiz. He’s so versatile. I loved him in everything I’ve seen, even when he was a bad guy. City Hunter, Smile You, Gaksital, Once Again, Twinkling Watermelon, My Liberation Notes, Joseon Attorney, Seo Young My Daughter - just everything! HULAROCK May 30 2024 7:13 pm There is him and then there is Kim Hae- Sook who he acted with in Saving Mrs. Go. There is an element of a golden touch a true legend . Every drama I have watched him in was the greatest . He made me cry, laugh and felt disdain, he has carried out each role to the highest degree. In Once Again I could not stop weeping when he found his sister. He has taken his character to another level when the audience watches your performance and feels its real is a true gift . Whenever I see his name I am always sure to watch the movie or drama it does not disappoint. I hope he reads this . Such talent he should win more awards . Amosia Feb 11 2024 9:57 am He is one of the best, I love him I watched My daughter seo young - my golden life - save me 2 - once again - beyound devil - my liberation notes from him I suggest watch save me 2 - once again and my liberation notes from him m.z Aug 01 2023 9:17 pm i just watch his drama "house of bluebird" his face remind me of Lee Byung-Hun (mr.sunshine actor). have related family? im sure when he young, he look handsome guy. :D Angell May 05 2023 2:53 am I only saw him in these 3 dramas: My Golden Life, Once Again and My liberation notes but his acting was perfect in all of them. Made me cry so many times! Sasta Sep 04 2022 5:58 am This ajushi is the best acting as abujin Hyp Apr 17 2022 5:22 pm Lovely portrayed father figure in My Golden Life. shaheraaa Sep 29 2021 11:16 pm uncle ho-jin i stan you!<33 stay safe!! Jojo Apr 25 2021 8:47 am I love him in My Golden Life. He made me cry so much. Keep it going sir!! I’m gonna watch all of his drama and movies ? Bunga Kaktus Apr 24 2021 12:44 pm Thank you for playing the character in the drama so well ... You remind me of my father. About how he sacrificed for his children (especially for us siblings). I would also like to thank the writer of this drama story, because it made me realize, that no matter how bad our parents are, they are still parents. No matter how much we hate or resent them, we must remember that without them, we would not be able to see this world, and experience the bittersweetness of life. They are getting older, and one day we will also experience the same thing .. I don’t know what else to type for expressing my feelings after watching the drama ... After all, I'm not good at explaining things, so maybe people who read this comment are also confused thinking about what I really want to convey. But one thing is for sure, I am so thankful that this drama has awakened me from my dream which is it's just a dream. I was 10 years old when my parents divorced. And both of them are still alive despite being unwell now. And to hope that they can unite as a married couple again, that will never exist ... I am quite grateful to the writer, for writing the storyline that never led to the divorce between Seo Jian’s parents & Choi Eunseok’s parents even though it almost happened. Whatever the pain of the wound, No matter how deep we fall, Never lose hope. Sofia Jan 24 2021 12:25 am He is a great actor!i watched my golden life and you are amazing!you made me cry. ..? Lolii Jan 01 2021 8:59 am Congratulations for winning the grand prize!!! Well deserve. Ur an amazing father in once again! He is such a great actor. He is best in historical dramas. Sep 11 2020 11:46 pm Great actor. Love him in Historical dramas. When he was King Yi the acting was wonderful. Perpetua Jul 08 2020 7:19 pm The best role I have seen him in, in my opinion was in Six Flying Dragons...there are specific scenes that come to mind when I think of that show and he is in most of them. I wish him the best. Joshua Pesigan Jul 05 2020 5:28 am he made me cry so much in last episode. great job and thank you so much lrt Aug 06 2019 8:39 am He's just great in any role.

Arihant Dec 31 2017 10:55 pm A big fan of his after his turn in City Hunter-filled with amazing performance.Was blown away by his acting in My Daughter Seo yeong and in most of his other dramas .He should portray good upstanding characters -he is awesome in them! Vitana Nov 30 2017 4:19 pm He makes an amazing job in My golden life. Great actor! Sabila.718to415 Oct 17 2016 4:45 pm He is truly one of the rare actors who can convey emotions without saying a word; his smile, his eyes, the look that pierces through the camera transcends and connects with the audience. Not to overlook -no pun intended, he is strikingly handsome even when the role calls for him to be less than (handsome). After seeing him as Lee Seong Gye in Six Flying Dragons, reminded me why this ahjussi is just too awesome for words. A versatile actor who can rival -if not surpass- other western actors. A masterful, phenomenal and prolific actor. His body of work that spans over three decade is proof. Much respect to a great actor. Idol 4ever. Looking forward to see more of your brilliant acting. Chloe-USA Oct 10 2016 9:14 pm You are an amazing talent!!!! A captivating talent!!!! I am a total fan and always look for your projects!!! No matter what the role...you never disappoint your audience!!!! Kudos on always giving an award-worthy performance!!!!! Bravo!!! Sylvia Sep 24 2016 4:37 pm Wow the deeper I get into watching 6 flying dragons this actor is just awesome. The strength, the charisma he has is emencly exciting. He commands attention yet he's humble when he enters a room. U r such an excellent actor. U put ur heart n soul into ur acting. Those steely eyes let u know he isn't playing around. God bless u. U have been blessed from the heavens. Sylvia Sep 24 2016 1:16 am Luv this actor. Excellent job n 6 flying dragons. Can't wait to c all his other movies, series. kay Jul 19 2016 11:39 am I think I saw you at JFK airport new York....almost 3 years ago...were you in new York that time...I was surprise to see you and did not know where I saw you before, during that thinking I block your passage, after realizing I move to give u passage and you look at me node at me... since then every time I see you in a drama that moment when my eyes met with your eyes comes to my mind ...you are among very few actors who use their eyes very wisely during acting. love your acting keep up good work,,,,,,,,,,,i am kay from new York.. I AM NOT a Korean... love to watch you and jin je hee ..so take care Deborah May 17 2016 8:17 am This man is truly and extraordinary actor. He can execute such a wide variety of roles. Kudos, I have not seen a Korean Drama he was not great in! Diana May 09 2016 9:48 am I loved your show so much, you played a great David Kim!! I hope you make more shows like this because I cannot get enough of watching them. Nancy Mar 06 2016 2:07 pm For those of you who think he doesn't express much emotion, check out episode 30 of Saving Mrs Bong Shil after he sneaks a kiss on Mrs.Bong Shil's forehead. The scene is towards the end. He was hilarious. Whenever I see him, he reminds me of Billy Dee Williams cool. Nancy Mar 05 2016 1:10 pm So very handsome! naik Feb 27 2016 7:01 pm i saw him in different dramas across a series of genres..i dont understand why his acting and expressions are always the same ..irrespective of his character whether he is a king,a father,a villain,a commoner ..his acting,dialogue delivery everything are exactly the same..i dont understand why he gets to play such wide range of roles patience Jul 20 2015 5:52 am Hmm u are an icon.I love your actions wen acting.you are setting a standard. Stainless Steel tube Manufacturer Apr 24 2015 6:44 am Very Versatile Actor. Have seen him many dramas! Mick Feb 16 2015 11:27 pm Really good actor...Played a great 'bad guy' role in Dr. Stranger curtie-breil Oct 30 2014 8:46 am Wow!!! You are a talented man and you are so good in acting You have so many movies and dramas .... Filomena Sep 30 2014 5:13 am A very good actor. He really plays his parts very well. I really enjoy watching his movies/dramas. Kai Jun 28 2014 12:38 am The first thing I noticed about him is that he doesn't express a lot of emotion (which is not good if you are an actor). That's why he may not be the best actor in Korean but he is undoubtedly one of the coolest man I have seen in Korean movies. I really like to watch him playing the father role in films. He is somehow represents 90% of the father figure that I have always been imaging all my life. Chun ho-jin is Liam Neeson of Korea. Korean directors! please star him as leading characters in action movies. He would make a super badass in action movies and a perfect father figure in family dramas. You may not be attracted to him as first because he doesn't express too much emotion. He is not like the young Korean actors who always make their eyes red and cry their sh1t out 90% of the length of a movie. CHUN HO-JIN is just COOL !!! Suseela May 11 2014 5:41 am Great actor and always required by many drama projects. He can make you believe from acting as a poor man or even as a prime minister. So many drama's in his pipeline he must have a lot of money! hahahaha Chris Dec 04 2013 1:49 am Wah, Cheon Ho-Jin. I've seen at least half a dozen of his projects and will continue to watch more. He may be a year younger than my own dad, but I have the biggest crush on him. He's a good actor, good looking, and even when playing a less than stand-up guy, he never fails to to win my heart. Vodoleiskaya Oct 08 2013 8:44 pm I love this amazing actor, he plays very well and has a nice face, which can express different emotions ... As Joo Won, he is my favorite actor in the drama "Good Doctor" .. With love from Russia .. Elena Sch. JHJ Aug 10 2013 9:05 pm He can represent both good and evil is an amazing actor. liz Mar 04 2013 6:04 pm Love Chun Ho Jin. Very good actor. Always stands out. He is one of the main reasons I have begun such a huge fan of K-Dramas. nene pa Jan 22 2013 4:09 am I love this ahjussi so much.. I look forward to dramas or movies if he is in it. such great actor..he makes me cry so much when I watch my daughter seo young..fighting ahjussi..my fav korean ahjussi.. elipse Sep 22 2012 10:08 pm I love this old man when ever I see him in a drama I know right away it's gonna be badass Suzanne Mar 24 2012 1:15 pm he's my favrite actor and i hope he will live FOREVER!!! he really scared me on a drama but he lived!! yay! Nga Oct 16 2010 10:39 pm I was impressed with him in Shim's family, want to see more of his films. Show the 49 previous comments...
