Actor Choi Dae-hoon is ramping up his global momentum by revealing a new set of profile pictures filled with autumn sensibility and announcing the dates for his very first fan meeting in Japan.
On the 12th, his agency Ace Factory released Choi Dae-hoon’s new profile photos, capturing entirely different moods across various spaces ranging from a minimalist studio to an autumn garden in full bloom with hydrangeas and a sunlit kitchen.
In the released pictorial, Choi showcased his versatile charm and earned the title of a "mood master" through each distinct cut. In the beige suit and black jacket shots, he displayed restrained sophistication and the essence of modern classic with a gentle gaze facing the camera. Meanwhile, in the garden shot wearing a boucle knit cardigan, he completed a lyrical autumn mood with a bright smile reaching his eyes and a deep gaze. Afterward, in the sunlit kitchen, he radiated the effortless charm of daily life by leaning against a window with a coffee cup or sitting comfortably on the floor with a smile.
Choi Dae-hoon is currently greeting viewers worldwide through the Disney+ original series ‘The Remarried Empress’. In the series, which set a record for the highest global viewership among all previous Disney+ local original content within the first three days of release and ranked number one in Korean content performance across more than 90 markets, Choi plays the role of McKenna, the cousin and secretary of Heinrey (played by Lee Jong-suk), the prince of the Western Kingdom.
Portraying a reliable supporter who uniquely scolds the free-spirited Heinrey, Choi brought the character to life with grounded facial expressions and witty delivery even within a romance fantasy worldview. His delightful bickering with Lee Jong-suk injected energy into the series, prompting favorable reviews on international social media stating that "Mckenna represents every viewer."
Having previously sparked a syndrome with the role of Bu Sang-gil in the Netflix series ‘When Life Gives You Tangerines’ and winning an award at the 61st Baeksang Arts Awards, Choi Dae-hoon has solidified his status as a "K-drama box office cheat key" through his starring roles in the global non-English TV show runner-up ‘Wonderfuls’ and the SBS drama ‘Mr. Kim’, which achieved number one on Netflix’s non-English TV shows and a peak momentary rating of 26.4%.
Fueled by this series of consecutive hits, Choi Dae-hoon will hold his first Japanese fan meeting on January 30, 2027, at the Tokyo Nikkei Hall in Japan, greeting local fans directly through two sessions held at 1:30 PM and 6:00 PM.
