Comments

Onepea Aug 29 2025 12:31 pm He did an excellent job in The Slingshot where he plays a narcissistic sociopath villain and has a thing for his sister.

nova villa Sep 11 2023 10:31 am for me kim kang woo is excellent actor, most of his female lead is compatible with him, his very hot especially in action. i watched him in good bye mr. black.. for ever fan from phillipines.

mezzy Aug 05 2023 10:04 am he’s really talented. just watched him in the childe and recalled. i was really touched with his sacrifices in recalled and annoyed with him in childe. he should be recognized already since he already act in many movies and drama

Jilli Jan 07 2023 5:08 pm One of the top five best Korean actors in that country. He can plays good guys and villains with equal skill and dexterity. His face reflects intelligence and humor that is quite attractive. I think the best drama I've seen him in is The Item. Amazing Kdrama! Amazing performance!

Chichi Jan 27 2022 3:29 am Just watched his movie 'Recalled' and it was amazing... I cried buckets in the latter part and I was really attracted in his eyes so I planned to check his other works hehe

Chaee Jul 14 2021 10:07 pm oh my god how he matched chemistry so well with seo yeaji. I hope there is drama for them!! i will like it very much^^

Pinku 2409 Jul 03 2021 9:02 am I really love his acting in recalled. He is very good actor. Looks like kwon sang woo. ,❤️❤️

Yamin Khin Kyaw May 31 2021 11:28 am I got to know you in My Husband - Oh Jak Doo and fell in love with your acting skill and yes, your appearance, handsome yet charming at the same time. Then you became one of my favorite actors. I started watching your past works and also the new works as well since then. As of today, I watched Recalled and as I realized your character and reason of why you did everything make me cry and I cried until the end of movie. You deserve more and more successes. I really really do wish for it. If I have a chance, I hope to meet you one day and wanna give you a present that can prove how much I am proud to be your fan. Maybe one day. Be Healthy!! My actor.

Hyung Nov 21 2020 10:13 pm Sometimes his face looklike kwon sang woo little brother

Nathaniel Wee Jun 06 2020 3:45 pm he looks very good for his age.. really dont look like 40s..

Scarlet Apr 22 2020 1:21 pm I love him so much! I would do anything for him...

He is so different from other actors. He has something which others haven't, I still don't know exactly what it is but it's in his eyes. I have never seen such beautiful sparkling eyes! Those expressive eyes are full of emotions... And that fire in his eyes, in his aura, his vibe... He's so charismatic and very sexy, for me he is much more sexier and charming than the usual sexy type actors. And he is doing it somehow effortlessly. He's a real man. That rare kind of a man whom every woman want as a husband...

What is also amazing in him that he is so attractive in very psychotic roles too. He plays it so well as if he was able to touch the dark side of him...

Chan Apr 11 2020 6:56 am I just can't move on from you. I wish you are mine. Lol. I pray for your succesful future. Please be back on small screen again. I hope in every of your incoming project is a big succes. Be healthy and keep on fightingggg. I will always be your fan girl and support you. ??????????

Lynn Dec 27 2019 12:10 am I came to know Kim Kang Woo in the show as "Oh Jak Doo", he was a romantic and caring lover for Han Seung Joo. They are the compatible couple and hope to see them pair up and fall in love again. Have seen other of his shows too, is a good actor. For his screen partner, still prefer he is with Uee, so natural and lovely couple. Now watching his new show "99billion woman". Good job. Hope to see him with Uee again. I really miss Oh Jak Doo & Han Seung Joo.

Deb May 11 2016 4:49 am You are a great actor. I first saw you in Golden Cross and I thought your acting was nothing less than excellent. You portrayed the leading role with much character and had me enthralled and engrossed in the drama from beginning to end! You carry yourself well too, with much dignity and looked really great when you are dressed in those suits! You remind me a lot of Kwong Sang Woo. Are you two related? I have made a list of all your dramas/movies and I will be watching them. Thank you for your great acting and keep up the good work! May God bless you,

A Caribbean fan
