Choi Woo Shik is a Korean-Canadian actor. His family immigrated to Canada when he was in fifth grade. At age 21, he moved back to South Korea to pursue an acting career there. He made his acting debut in the period drama The Duo (2011) and enrolled in ChungAng University and majored in cultural studies.

After signing with JYP Entertainment in 2012, Choi Woo Shik began landing supporting roles in other popular dramas, including “Rooftop Prince” and “Who Are You?” before his breakout turn in the 2014 hit drama “Fated to Love You (aka You Are My Destiny)” as Lee Yoon, Lee Gun’s scheming but then supportive half-brother. His first leading role was in the 2015 drama “Fool’s Love (Ho Goo’s Love).”

In 2014, Choi starred in his first leading role in the coming-of-age indie film “Set Me Free,” which earned him an Actor of the Year award at the Busan International Film Festival.

Choi gained international recognition with the blockbuster zombie thriller film ”Train to Busan” and action-adventure film ”Okja.”

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).
