            As Filipinos keep on watching koreanovela, i make a list of Popular Korean Actors that surely Filipinos already loved. I based it on their shows that already seen in the Philippines:

1.  KWAN SANG WOO
     Roles He Portrayed:
     Cholo in Stairway to Heaven
     Andrew in Endless Love 1 (Autumn in My Heart)
     Edward Ha in The Big Thing
     Cinderella MAN             

                Who can’t resist the charm of this good looking guy? This good actor really portrays his role very well. Who can forget him as Andrew Endless Love 1 (Autumn in My Heart), I guess this is that’s the first time that we seen his face on Philippine TV. But the more we appreciate him, is when He pierce their heart with his heartbreaking role as Cholo in Stairway to Heaven. The Big Thing is his newest drama on Philippine TV, which I like so much because he played comic as Edward Ha and He has his upcoming drama in Philippine TV Cinderella Man

    Justine in Full House
A love to kill

Rain, (born Jung Ji-Hoon), is primarily known for his singing and dancing talents, but he has also expanded into the world of acting.

                As an R&B singer, he is perhaps one of the best known stars worldwide, having performed in several Asian countries as well as the United States. His music and dancing talent have been compared to superstars such as Usher and Justin Timberlake.

                However, his rise to stardom can arguably be mainly attributed to his role in the 2004 Korean drama series, Full House, in which he starred opposite of Song Hye Kyo. The series became immensely popular, and ended up as one of the highest rated and most popular Korean dramas worldwide. Another drama is A love to kill.

                The year 2008 was another busy year for Rain, as he earned a small role in his first Hollywood film Speed Racer.

                In 2009 Rain graced the big screen again with the movie Ninja Assassin, which earned him the "Biggest Badass Award" at the MTV movie awards in 2010.

                This Korean actor really captivates the heart of Filipina audiences when they first saw him at his Curly looking, Rich, and Bad Boy image that fell in with a poor simple girl at Boys over Flower
