Along with being an idol, Eunwoo has also showcased his skills as an actor in K-Dramas like Rookie Historian Goo Hae Ryung, True Beauty, and Gangnam Beauty.
Sadly, many of his roles have been criticized as netizens believed that Eunwoo was given the same kind of boring roles with characters that have no real development, but that’s all changed.
Eunwoo is starring in the new K-Drama Wonderful World, where his character is locked in grief and forms an unlikely bond with a grieving mother, played by Kim Nam Ju.
The first episode has aired, and netizens have been posting clips of the idol in a very different kind of role.

Even in screenshots, Eunwoo’s role seems very different.
When several videos were posted online, netizens praised the change in Eunwoo’s acting, sharing that he’s always had the skills but was never given the right role.
Many fans believe that his past roles haven’t showcased what he can really achieve, and Wonderful World has already proved to netizens that Eunwoo is more than just a handsome face. There were a lot of comments that even compared his cool visuals to actor Kim Ji Hoon, sharing that these visuals suited him and the vibes were more badass.
Even on X, netizens were glad to see Eunwoo in a completely different kind of role.
