Almost similar to Choi Woo Shik's career path, he was born in Seoul, but flew to Vancouver, Canada, at the age of 10 with his family.

The "Our Beloved Summer" star lived the next ten years as Edward Choi. He attended Simon Fraser University in 2010, and when he turned 20, he asked permission from his parents to return to South Korea to pursue acting.
