The Korean industry holds several brilliant talents inside the realm of the global industry. When it involves K-Dramas, everybody is aware of the popularity of Hyun Bin, Park Seo Joon, and many more. However, many other K-drama actors may not be as famous as them but are remarkable and talented actors that deserve more attention.
1. Choi Tae Joon
Choi Tae Joon is known for his commendable performances in dramas like 'Suspicious Partner' and ‘Exit' and returned with the Korean remake of 'So I Married An Anti-fan'. Choi made his acting debut in childhood in ‘Piano’. However, it'd be an understatement to say that Choi Tae Joon deserves more fame. Choi Tae Joon deserves a lead role, and his fans would love to see more of him on the screen. Choi even won an MBC drama award for Best New Actor.
2. Lee Soo Hyuk
Lee Soo Hyuk is extremely underrated at this point, especially considering how captively renowned he's as an actor. Most of us recall him from 'Scholar Who Walks The Night’, where he played the antagonist vampire Gwi. It is no wonder that he initially aspired to be a model because of his extraordinarily sharp features and piercing gaze. It seems age has not touched him since a teenager, and we can not help but desire him to get cast as a male lead with all of the spotlights on him soon. He was cast in the fantasy drama ‘Doom At Your Service’.
3. Kang Ki Young
Kang Ki Young can make any K-Drama a million times better. He personifies his characters with all his being, making them iconic and memorable and the entire experience much more enjoyable. He's the one who makes you laugh and also the one you miss the most and remember when the drama is over. He's an all-in-one package. He made his debut with Hemmingsen Hall with 'Our bad Magnet.’ He won the 'Excellence Award’ and the 'Best Supporting Actor' at the 14th Soompi Awards. He is a rising star, and people want to see more of him on screen.
4. Kwak Si Yang
Kwak Si Yang is a charming actor in the industry and is jamming with lead role potential. Kwak debuted as an actor in Glorious Day in 2014. His first lead role was in 2014 Night Flight. He acted in the music drama, Persevere, Goo Hae-Ra. He performed as Grand Prince Suyang in 'Redsky’. He has proved his caliber on multiple projects and truly deserves more attention and appreciation for his visuals, talent, and charming personality.
5. Lee Ki Woo
We all know Lee Ki Woo from “Flower Boy Ramyun Shop”, who didn’t end up with the girl in the show. He got his first lead role in “Doctor Detective”, but the drama was not very popular. It’s quite a concerning matter because Lee Ki Woo has excellent acting skills and quite the body. Look at that incredible height! Imagine him bending down towards a shorter female as a lead in a rom-com. The man deserves more chances as the main lead and more screen time.
6. Lee Jong Won
