Probably the name that rings the most when you bring up the series name is the actor behind Go Jun Pyo, the hot rich chaebol who treats the lead like trash but ends up falling so deeply in love that it changes him.

The actor went on to lead many famous works throughout the years, notably “City Hunter” “The Heirs” And “Legend Of The Blue Sea,” in all of his productions, he shared the screen with other popular hallyu actresses.

He is currently serving the military; he started on May 12, 2017 at Suseo Social Welfare Centre in Gangnam District Office as a public service officer.

The actor wasn’t able to serve like other regular soldiers due to a car accident that took place in August 2006 with fellow actor Jung Il-woo, which caused him to be bedridden for months as he had suffered serious leg injuries.

To add to that, he suffered another car accident in 2011 while filming City Hunter.

Not too long ago and on March 15, 2018 he entered his military training at the Korea Army Training Centre in Nonsan, South Chungcheong Province.
