AD May 31 2026 12:14 pm Choo Young Woo is such a great actor. It took me a while to watch this series since it came out because I was afraid of how heavy it would be. I wasn’t wrong! It was so beautiful, my heart ached so much. It’s been a while since a drama has left me so speechless! The writing, the acting, everything was so good.

But honestly this made me a much bigger fan of Choo Young Woo especially after watching Trauma Code and Head Over Heels.

Last time I this amazed was The Red Sleeve and The Alchemy of Souls. It keeps you at the edge of your seat but at the same time crying because of how great all the actors are as well. I just did not expect so many deaths in the series so it really leaves you with a slight ache.

Of course, I have to give it to Lim Ji Yeon as well. Her acting is exceptional. I love how she gave life to this character.

Regardless of critics, this was a great drama worthy of praise. It’s difficult to find a drama that I can say was beautifully written and entertaining albeit sad at times. Most dramas are usually predictable especially with the conflict but I did not expect that things would unfold the way it did.

Lee Hyeon-j May 21 2026 9:49 am He looks like Lee Jun-young. They could be act as brothers in a drama.

Pu Apr 23 2026 12:14 pm My favorite actor is Choo Young Woo. I’m so drawn to him because I truly love the way he pours his heart into acting. It feels surprising, heart touching, and even makes my heart flutter. All of these emotions come naturally when I follow his journey. I appreciate him so much. Please stay healthy and happy, no matter what!

Allie Mar 12 2026 8:52 pm I’ve seen this young actor in 2 projects. His acting skills are impressive in both the drama about the young woman with anterograde amnesia and where he’s a vet in the countryside. However, his serious, intense face suddenly completely transformed in the vet drama when he smiles, going from OK to blindingly handsome. Keep smiling! There are several Kdrama actors I can think of who have exceedingly handsome serious faces that transform into a bit goofy when they smile, so it’s better this way, I think

no name - safa Sep 23 2025 5:07 am I wish him healthy and always be good person, i will wait the new drama from him!!!!

Rena Sep 14 2025 1:56 am more projects of him! Jelba!!! I've missed him already. T.T

Vera Aug 10 2025 10:20 am Amazing Talented Actor ~ tall, young and good looking with great acting skills ~ so BMF by SZA coded.

Youngwoo ya! I will be always rooting for you.

maki Aug 07 2025 9:48 am I first noticed him in Police University (2021). Even then, I could already see his potential—his tall stature, captivating aura, and impressive acting skills. He has a presence that draws you in more and more as you watch him.

Since then, I’ve followed his work in Once Upon a Small Town, The Tale of Lady Ok, The Trauma Code: Heroes on Call, Mercy for None, and Head Over Heels. I’m currently watching Oasis, and I’m excited to see him take on the role of a villain—even though historical fiction and sageuk aren’t usually my go-to genres.

He’s such a versatile actor. With six roles in 2025, I’m looking forward to his next project—whether it’s a Korean drama or a film.

Please visit the Philippines someday—we would love to see you here, Youngwoo- yaaa!

Arisha Aug 05 2025 11:48 am I’m also a big fan of him since “Police University”! I really like his character Park Min-gyu. In “Trauma Code: Heroes On Call”, he plays Dr. Yang Jae-won/“Anus” on a different level even though the personality of each the characters he plays are totally different from each other! This is what I call a professional actor. And perhaps, this is how he got to star with Cha Tae-hyun, Ju Ji-hoon, So Ji-sub and many more!

Bula Aug 03 2025 1:21 am I am a fan of your acting since trauma code!!! Now, doing marathon of your previous projects!!! More projects to come! Choo Young Woo!!! Will support you forever!! ?

Nik Aug 01 2025 5:26 pm He's already on my list of fav actors after I've randomly seen 6 of his works such a difference between Mercy for none and Trauma code, nice nice! Stay busy, I want to see more!

Raa Jul 31 2025 12:09 pm The first time I saw Youngwoo was through the drama The Trauma Code. But I'm still not a fan of him. But after watching Head Over Heels, I was amazed to see him playing two characters as Gyeonu + Bongsu. Then I continued to watch The Tale of Lady Ok while HOH was still ongoing and was hooked on him! (No wonder he won Best New Actor @ Baeksang Award!) His talent is amazing! Sorry for being late to notice his presence ㅠ_ㅠ I will continue to support Choo Youngwoo from now on! Fighting cuyoung ??

Choo Young Woo Enthusiasts Jul 30 2025 7:16 pm I support you no matter what young woo-yah, thank you for bringing me another reason not to stop watching kdrama! Saranghe and continue to be an amazing actor that you are already. Looking forward to your new projects!♡

Ddeonu Jul 30 2025 6:34 am This is my first time watching your drama, Head Over Hells. And you succeeded in making me like you. Your acting is very good, especially when playing two different characters. And I like the possessed version of you. Because it looks sexy hehe..

Ahh I hope to see you in another drama that is no less exciting

Praying Jul 30 2025 1:41 am Looking forward to your another project! You and Yihyun deserve the Best Couple Award. Thanks for curing my dreary Monday and Tuesday. Love you with all my heart Youngwoo ya!

AN Jul 29 2025 11:15 pm Thank you for your amazing acting in Head Over Heels! I am really enjoy a lot for 2025 KDrama. So excited for waiting Monday comes.

Please continue to play other roles in much drama. I will excite to watch and support you. See you in other your acting scene, youngwooya FIGHTING! <3

Woo Jul 29 2025 11:14 am He did a great job in Head Over Heels! I fell in love with his acting. Always waiting for his upcoming projects.

Xo Jul 27 2025 9:46 am His acting is so Goated. Bro got people fighting over his two characters in a same drama!

K Jul 25 2025 4:37 pm I am so proud of you. I’ll be your fan always.

Faiz Jul 25 2025 12:20 pm His acting is on point. Why does he always make us all split between the two personalities in one drama? Yet it is ultimately one actor!

Sabi Jul 25 2025 12:06 pm Last year >> Sunjae ya ~

This year >> Gyeonwoo ya ~~

Pradeepika Jul 24 2025 10:27 am I fell in love with his acting in 'Once Upon a Small Town,' where he effortlessly portrayed a posh vet doctor who temporarily replaces his grandfather in a quaint village. His charm and sophistication on screen were captivating. Later, when I watched 'Head Over Heels,' I was truly impressed by his versatility as an actor. He seamlessly adapts to any role, and his good looks only add to his on-screen presence. Wishing him continued success in his future endeavours!

Casio Jul 24 2025 4:42 am His character changing skill in one drama is on another level. He is definitely a versatile actor!

Bella Jul 23 2025 9:52 am Give him more projects! He nailed his characters so well.

Louis Jul 23 2025 3:46 am Choo young woo's acting ability needs to be studied. The way he played two characters in one drama and made them feel like totally separate people?? I couldn’t even see the overlap. Like sir, who gave you the right to be this good?? He really carried both roles with so much depth, I was emotionally invested in both. Give this man every role, every award and every recognition. He truly deserves.

Jaie Jul 22 2025 11:32 pm This year's most versatile actor!

Lan Jul 22 2025 10:09 pm I really like him, so handsome and good at acting. Deserves the awards he got!

AN Jul 22 2025 8:49 pm Like his acting so much! <3

sakshi Jul 22 2025 11:22 am he is so cute

Gee Jul 22 2025 9:16 am The First half of 2025 - 4 Dramas, 6 Roles ! He nailed it!

Nute Jul 22 2025 5:16 am His mastery of two roles makes his characters amazing! (Head Over Heels & The Tale of Lady Ok)

Kristi Jul 18 2025 12:02 pm Congratulations for winning Best New Actor twice at the same year. He did great job! Love both Cheon Seung Hwi / Sung Yoon Gyun in The Tale of Lady Ok and Dr.Yan Jae Won aka Anus in The Trauma Code.

Chu Jul 18 2025 10:04 am He both won the same award from Baeksang and Blue Dragon Series Awards at the same year! Deserve!

Lyla Jul 18 2025 10:00 am Best New Actor of the year! He nailed it! He deserves it!

NJ Jul 17 2025 4:27 am Gyeonwoo/Bongsu feels like a leveled-up version of Seunghwi/Yoongyeom.

Cho Young-woo is once again proving his range, flawlessly nailing the double role in 'A Tale of Lady Ok' earned him a Baeksang Award, and now he's elevating it even further with sharper character change and fast emotional switches.

Best Actor Indeed !!

Bae Jul 16 2025 7:31 pm Waiting for more projects of him. He is very charismatic and he always lives in his roles.

Jan R Jul 16 2025 11:22 am Sometimes he looks like Ahn Yoseop, sometimes he looks like Rowoon, sometimes he looks like BTS Jin and sometimes he look like 2PM Junho

Shisha Jul 16 2025 5:33 am All drama of Choo Young Woo is recommended. His acting, his gestures, his voice tone and his character are so blend with his role. And he is Best New Actor of 61st BaekSang Art Awards! Guys ~ we've just found an amazing actor.

Mywoman_Yeaji Jul 14 2025 1:43 pm Just saw you in Head over Heels and goshhhh.... So good Your acting is superb and my daysss you look so good.

Venna Jul 14 2025 11:49 am Such a talented actor with amazing acting skills. Love his all projects and can't get enough of his aura and talents.

Reunji Jul 13 2025 1:39 am The King of dual role! Cheon Seung Hwi and Sung Yoon Gyeong in The Tale of Lady Ok ,then Gyeonwoo and Bongsu (the evil spirit) in Head Over Heels! It's nice to see him and his various acting in one drama. Wow! Very Talented Actor Choo Young Woo aka Mr.Chu!

uL Jul 08 2025 4:32 am he's a great actor, I think I'm fallin in love with his acting in Drama Once Upon a Small Town. I know him for the first time in Drama Police University. I'll waiting for your another hardwork! Choo Young Woo Fighting!!!

zai Jun 12 2025 2:46 pm he's on a roll this year - 3 projects nd we're only in june! kinda reminds me of junyoung haha :D looking forward to seeing his career flourish!

aya Feb 23 2025 3:56 pm He's great actor, i love his acting in every drama i even have watched all of his dramas because his acting is so good keep it anime <3

aya Feb 23 2025 3:55 pm He's great actor, i love his acting in every drama i even have watched all of his dramas because his acting is so good

Eda Feb 16 2025 9:40 am Your acting in The Tale of Lady Ok was tremendous talent..Hope u will continue your great job ..thumbs up for u

Bea Feb 10 2025 3:15 am Choo yeong woo and lim ji yeon has such good chemistry in the tale of lady ok that i don't think any actress he would be paired up with in the future would give the same excitement that i felt in their series.

Hopefully, he would get more excellent projects in the next few months or years so we could watch him again. This guy can act and i'm telling you, his facial expressions are so natural even in the trauma code drama. He doesn't look cringe and oa when doing subtle comedy rather i find it actually funny even if he's not saying anything just his face acting alone is enough to make his scenes hilarious.

Thv Feb 03 2025 8:53 am In the tale of lady ok, he really act like Yoon Shi-yoon in a historical drama, the expression he really good at it, hope to see you more in a witty character.

Ara Feb 02 2025 11:19 pm Nahhhh fr I thought he was Lee Jun Young for so long after watching Trauma Code. My mind is blown that he is different and the guy from The Tale of Lady Ok. His acting was so good. Imma go reflect on my life and come back. Why did I assume he was Jun! He looked so alike and unless I came across the interview of someone asking him that he was Lim Jiyeon's man and now he is Ju Ji Hoon's man how does it feel lol.

Thv Feb 01 2025 11:41 am He look like Kim Jae-Young too, a bit.

Bassey Queen Jan 30 2025 11:13 am I’m proud of you

Loved your acting in Tales of Lady Ok

lulu Jan 29 2025 12:00 pm he's like a mix of lee junyoung and rowoon hehe and i love his acting in lady ok and trauma center, hoping for more of his acting in the future

avery Jan 29 2025 4:58 am love him in Trauma Code. mom told me he's in Lady Ok which i am alr planning to watch when all eps are out.

is it just me or at some angles, with his glasses on, he looks like txt taehyun?

Nevilla Jan 29 2025 1:41 am I thoroughly enjoyed his acting in Trauma Code, superb performance.

nata Jan 28 2025 11:54 pm his acting in trauma code is sooo good!!!!

Judith Jan 28 2025 6:16 am I thought he’s similar with Lee Jun Young ?

Bibil Jan 27 2025 7:31 pm Following all his drama since school 2021... day after day I fall in love into him even harder

Nimi Jan 27 2025 4:43 am I am going to watch his dramas from here onwards. Tale of lady ok is so great He is so cute in trauma code too I love him so much. You gained a fan boo

Sorrect_Cyntax Jan 26 2025 10:48 pm I have only known him from the Tale of Lady Ok, but then I did binge watch his drama with Ju Ji Hoon on The Trauma Code just in one day lol.

I think he has been typecast-ed as a "Tall lanky slightly awkward capable/logical person with heart of gold", but goddamn he was perfect for that role. I wish him all the success and gets to do variety different character as he wish to do in the future.

Minnie04 Jan 25 2025 11:49 am First time watched him at drama Oasis with Jang Dong Yoon and Seol in A . Can’t stand his role there as villain, proved that he is good actor. This new Netflix medical drama need season 2 . Looking forward for more his future projects.

Torimou Jan 18 2025 6:00 pm Very talented young man, saw him first in Police University, he already felt like someone with a great potential even tho his role was rather smaller there. He captured my heart while I was watching Once Upon a Small Town, what a lovely and heart fluttering drama! The tale of Lady Ok tho, his acting is on another level there. Wow, just wow. Mesmerising. I hope to see him in more roles, from different kind of genres, I will support his talent either way. Still I have a soft spot for him as a romantic lead.

And the more I look at him the more he reminds me of both Ahn Hyo Seop and Rowoon, he has kinda similar face features. And he smiles like Kim Seo Ha, very beautiful smile. While also having his own charm. Wishing him success in life and career!

Rica Lim Jan 07 2025 10:09 pm He looks like Ahn Hyo Seop. They could act together as brothers. Both have tall and slim figure too.

Hayoonhee Jan 04 2025 2:34 pm Almost look like Jung Il Woo.

Nimi Dec 30 2024 6:57 am You just gained a fan. You’re so so so handsome dammit Love your acting in tale of lady ok

Zel Jun 26 2024 7:16 pm I will always support you. I love your acting skill

Zel Jun 26 2024 7:15 pm I will always support you. I love your acting skill

JK Jan 17 2024 3:12 am I'm very sad and disappointed to know that he is homophobic

Chip Jul 21 2023 7:12 am Was tremendous in "Once Upon..." a beautiful series! Surprised to see he hasn't been in more series. He deserves more top roles! Keep on!!!

emma04 May 04 2023 10:35 pm He’s acting skills are amazing! I look forward to his further shows/movies he’s definitely going to become a big actor

iris321 Apr 30 2023 7:05 am Omg, I had no idea that he's only 23 years old. He's already proving to be a talented and skillful actor, and I have a feeling that he'll be cast in many reputable dramas in the future!! Fighting!

Quantum Nurse Apr 27 2023 8:34 am I must say I am impressed with actor Choo Young Woo's performance in "Oasis" He is only in his early 20s and is able to deliver a solid complicated and hated character Choi Cheol Woong in "Oasis". He will be the next generation great actor.

Su San Apr 26 2023 3:39 pm Outstanding talent on display in Oasis. At age 23, this young actor has a promising career ahead of him!

Aimen Apr 26 2023 9:47 am Literally one of the most perfect actors in Korean industry

Jeje Apr 09 2023 11:45 am In some angels he looks similar to the actor Seo Kang Joon

leusserafim Apr 05 2023 9:33 am He reminds me of byeon woo seok?? I love his action in kdrama once upon a small town

Jilli Jan 16 2023 12:46 am Really enjoyed him in Small Town. Such an upbeat, positive, funny, delightful drama. Odd to say this, but he reminds me sometimes of a very young Shin Sung Rok in appearance. Lol

Light Dec 23 2022 10:06 am I love your acting and we are both Gemini…keep it ip

Juliette Chin Oct 23 2022 11:53 am OMG C Y-W what a nice guy

Peachyzilla Oct 16 2022 1:53 am Hope to see you more in a drama as the main lead!! I love you so much after watching school 2021 and once upon a small town. I finally found an actor I like who is the same age as me.

NANETTE Sep 29 2022 9:13 pm This K series is so light, and will leave a smile in your heart ❤. I love the sceneries, the simple life of people living in it, overall, it is a happy feel series. Thank you for making this ?.

Peter Im Sep 25 2022 12:17 pm Really enjoy this drama He is very fresh and extraordinary manners and acting with plicegirl and all neighbours very interesting!!!

Gogontle Setlhare May 14 2022 6:46 am I totally ship him. I loved him in Police University and his character in School 2021 makes me laugh despite the serious nature of the character. He is doing so well for a new actor. Keep it up ❤️?

mia Mar 01 2022 6:01 pm omo.. i think im in love

jam Feb 12 2022 5:14 pm He looks like Ju Ji-hoon , While watching School 2021 i can imagine him as the Crown Prince of the remake of Princess Hours .. His cold and snob like acting here is similar to ji-hoon ! waiting for more projects of him

s Nov 28 2021 3:40 pm being casted as important characters in his first two dramas is insanely impressive... normally actors go for lesser roles before they become leads in dramas but he just went for it straight away and got it!

Edrianne Oct 14 2021 10:15 am I can't believe he's just 22 oMo.. I really like him in Police University, so refreshing face.

99 Liner Oct 06 2021 5:37 pm Can't believe we're the same age? such a good actor he is

DryedMangoez Sep 09 2021 3:30 am He was so good in You Make Me Dance. It's great to see him getting some big roles already! Well deserved. He has a bright future.

Ahi Sep 03 2021 4:18 pm Omg, same year, same month but different days. can't wait to see you in another drama! lot of love for you.

Sandra Vee Aug 31 2021 2:53 am He Is Born In '99??!! My Age!! i thought he was older??

Redbell Aug 25 2021 1:36 am He is good dancer in drama You Make Me Dance
