Kim Dong-hwi (Korean: 김동휘; born December 26, 1995) is a South Korean actor. He started his career in commercial films like The Royal Tailor (2014).
Kim Dong Hwi revealed that he belonged to the dance club in high school, and he said he did various things, such as K-pop and street. After seeing his son overflow with talent, such as forming a street dance team with his friends and participating in competitions, his father first encouraged him to become an actor. He is the only child of a shaman.
He revealed that his role models are Choi Min-sik , Lee Byung-hun , Cho Seung-woo , and Park Jung-min. He appeared in the same work twice with actor Yoo Yeon-seok . He appeared as a king and a prince in his debut film , The Chamberlain , and as his younger counterpart in Secret Temptation.
He applied for the audition alone without an agency, overcame a competition rate of 250:1, and became the lead in “ The Mathematician in Wonderland .” He says he got into the habit of writing notes when he started acting, so he analyzes his character, writes a diary while filming, and writes down what he has to do that day.
In November 2023, Kim told the media that he had applied for mandatory military service. It is expected that he will wait to receive the summons for the day he has to enter military service.[1]
