I just finished reviewing Bubblegum for DramaFever and it made me remember how much I like Lee Dong Wook as an actor. I first saw him in Scent of A Woman (sobs) and have been checking out his dramas often. Well, not really often but I do when I remember. He has to be the only male drama actor that sometimes shows up in a drama with a mustache, right? Well except for Kim Nam Gil. Right? RIGHT?

Anyway. The fangirly side of me would like to point out that he is undeniably handsome. So much so, I felt the need to create a new Youtube series called: Who’s That One Guy. It is going to be short (hopefully under 3 minutes to keep people interested) videos on actors that may not be as popular as they should be (or at least I think so). I will add a blog post (like this one) that keeps a list of the dramas and a good place (read legal and won’t add viruses to your computer) to watch it.
