Time for some new blood, you may know him you may not but here's Daniel.
Daniel Henney is a Michigan native as the son of an American (Irish) father and a Korean Adoptee mother.
Daniel's career started in 2001 as a model eventually working in Europe and Asia. He debuted in Korea by starring in a advertisement and he eventually became the co-face of several company advertisements. His career breakthrough and acting debut would be in the South Korean Drama My Lovely Sam Soon in 2005 even though he could not speak an ounce of Korean. The next year he would star in another drama called Spring Waltz. He also learned some Korean from guest starring on a few Korean variety shows. His movie career didn't start until he starred in the Korean film Seducing Mr. Perfect. Even though he couldn't really speak Korean then, his character only spoke English while his co-star Uhm Jung-hwa only spoke Korean. The film worked and he made Korean cinema history with his second film My Father which won many awards. It was the first time that a foreigner was nominated for every best new actor award in all the major film awards. His American film debut wouldn't be until he starred in X-Men Origins: Wolverine as Agent Zero in 2009.
It appears now he is focusing his attention to his home country by doing small roles in TV shows like Hawaii Five-o, Revolution, NCIS: Los Angeles, and Criminal Minds.
Daniel will be a series regular in the new spin off Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders.
