Doppelgangers

Wow... I am mixing up actors. I saw Choi Woo Sik in Rooftop Prince, TEN, and Train to Busan. I saw Park Hyung Sik in Nine, which I have written about before. (but I had actually forgotten all about that, because he only played the young version of the lead actor) Now I just started watching Strong Girl Bong Soon, and at first I thought Park Hyung Sik was Choi Woo Sik. I was thinking, finally he has a more serious role. But uh... it seems not, it's just a different actor.

Recently, before starting to watch Strong Girl, I saw a video review for The Witch: Part 1. The Subversion (very recently!) I saw this actor portraying a mysterious young man. The reviewer mentioned the actor's name, Choi Woo Sik, and I thought, finally he has a serious role (because in the other shows where I've seen him, he's always been the bumbling idiot). But I haven't seen The Witch yet, which is why when I saw Strong Girl, I thought that was my first time seeing him in a serious role.

Not to mention that when I watched Perfect Proposal, I initially thought that Yoo Yeon Seok was Choi Woo Sik too. I also thought that I was finally seeing him in a serious role. Sigh...I guess I just really wanted to see him play something other than bumbling idiot. :P Maybe I finally will get that chance with The Witch.

Looking at photos of these three guys, I still feel that there is really a similarity. However I am now forewarned, so I hope I will be able to tell them apart in future. Now that I have seen Park Hyung Sik in Strong Girl, I think he is the best-looking among the three... I shouldn't insult him by confusing him with the others any more!
