Actor Kim Woo Bin reveals his name.

The actor recently shared his thoughts on his real name Kim Hyun Joong, and said it's weird to now be called by that name.

The actor was interviewed by fashion magazine @star1 and said, “it feels awkward when people call me by my real name. I don't like it.”

He continued, “I was called by Kim Hyun Joong for over 20 years. Before I’ve never thought I was going to be called differently. I asked my friends to give me suggestions, and my agency CEO, suggested the name Kim Woo Bin, and I liked it.”

He also said the reason he had to change his name before his debut, was to not be confused with another artists with the same, like SS501's leader Kim Hyun Joong, and actor Kim Hyung Joon.

In the magazine he also revealed he became a top student to fulfill his dream of being a model, and worked really hard to achieve a model's body.

Kim Woo Bin and his co-star in the KBS drama “School 2013” Lee Jong Suk were interviews together and their interview was published in the March issue of the magazine.
