Kim Woo Bin Wanted to Become a Soccer Player

As a kid, it seems like Kim Woo Bin knew his strengths and wanted to utilize them in the future.

At the show, the actor shared that he wanted to be a soccer player because of his height.

"Even then, I was always tall," he said. Kim Woo Bin towers at 6 feet, but instead of being an athlete, he started his career as a runway model.

In 2009, the then 20-year-old rookie model strutted the runways of Seoul Fashion Week and walked for famous designers and brands.

According to a report, during his previous interview with Chosun Ilbo, the actor's lifelong dream is to become a fashion model, so he went to auditions and juggled work and studies.

"All the auditions for fashion shows kept me too busy to properly enjoy the first year of college when I was 2," he said.

Like Kim Tae Ri, Kim Woo Bin made a name for himself in the world of acting and was considered one of the OG Oppas in Kdramaland.

Debuting in 2011, he started on supporting roles and eventually had his first lead role for "School 2013."

Kim Woo Bin's career skyrocketed after joining the cast of "The Heirs" alongside Lee Min Ho, Park Shin Hye, and Kim Ji Won.

Lastly, Ryu Jun Yeol dishes out his hilarious childhood dream.

Instead of revealing that he wanted to become an athlete, doctor, or someone with an exciting career, he had something different in mind.

"When I was a kid, I kept wondering how I could play instead of doing homework without my mom knowing," he said.

However, in college, he took up theater and film as a scholar at the University of Suwon; this was his first step to becoming an actor. Lo and behold, he is now known as a versatile star who headlined blockbuster K-dramas like "The Producers" and "Reply 1988."

The trio is starring in the upcoming sci-fi fantasy movie "Alien" directed by "The Thieves" and "Assassination" director Choi Dong Hoon.
