Actors I follow
While I am not immune to a pretty face (and other bits), this list is for actors who have impressed me with their ability to make me care about their characters.

Lee Joon Gi
Sud corean
Do I need to explain this one? While I do not love every one of his characters, he has never failed to impress me with his acting ability.

So Ji Sub
Sud corean
First came across him in 'Master's Sun'. His character there was intriguing though at times not very likable. My second exposure was 'Always' and a completely different character. Now I am on to 'Oh my Venus' and developing a respect for his Acting ability. Lets see where it leads me...

Jo Jae Yoon
Sud corean
Very versatile actor who made me care (cheetah in Mad Dog), laugh (Bong Man-shik in Black), and get entirely creeped out. (Jo Wan-tae in Save Me) all in the span of a few weeks.

Li Tai
Chinez
I have only ever seen him in 'The King's Woman'. But that was enough to get him on this list. I'll be keeping my eyes open for more of his work. (once I finish slogging through Lee Joon Gi's catalog)

Woo Do Hwan
Sud corean
Save Me and Mad Dog. While the characters were similar in many ways, he had the skills to make them very different. Looking forward to his next big thing.

Nam Joo Hyuk
Sud corean
I adore this guy's range of character. I've seen him play adorable (weightlifting fairy), arrogant (Hebak), and artistic (scarlet heart ryeo). Each character was unique from the others.

Gong Yoo
Sud corean
Honestly I've only seen him in Goblin, but like Li Tai, that was enough to put him on my radar.

Xu Ke
Chinez
Xe Ke is not in may things, but what I have seen him in I have enjoyed. He seems to do best at the quiet brainy guy with a flirty side that comes out every now and then.

Jang Hyuk
Sud corean
I will admit my first exposure to him (Fated to love you) left me ambivalent. That all changed with Money Flower.
