In 2018, Choi furthered his career by playing a mysterious assassin called the Nobleman in the movie ”The Witch: Part 1. The Subversion.”

In 2019 Choi Woo Shik got internationally praised for his main role in the movie ”Parasite.” South Korea has selected Bong Joon Ho’s Palme d’Or winner “Parasite” as its entry for the International Feature Film award at the 92nd Academy Awards (Oscars).
