It all started when a hashtag #TanyaChaEunwoo became a trending topic here in Malaysia. The hashtag was flooded with various questions for the idol singer who is also a rising actor in his home country of South Korea.

Some fans further speculated that Astro member Cha Eunwoo (차은우) will be making his visit to our country soon. The news was later confirmed and it’s revealed that the 22-year-old heartthrob will pay us a visit this 27th October for his “Just One 10 Minute” fan-meeting tour.

Cha Eunwoo has been taking the Korean showbiz by storm since making his official debut as a member of boy band Astro in 2016. Since then, he has ventured into solo endeavors by making appearances in variety shows such as “Law of the Jungle” and also appeared in a few television dramas.

His popularity soon started to rise after landing a lead role as Do Kyungseok in the 2018 JTBC drama “My ID is Gangnam Beauty”. Cha Eunwoo’s performance in the drama – adapted from webtoon of the same name published in 2016 by Naver – has won the hearts of many K-Drama fans. His latest project, historical drama “Rookie Historian Goo Haeryung” premiered in July 2019 on both Netflix as well as local channel MBC.

In conjunction with Cha Eunwoo’s visit in Malaysia, here are 6 fun facts about him that fans should know:

1. Birth name

Some of Cha Eunwoo’s fans might be surprised that the name Cha Eunwoo is in fact actually a stage name. His actual birth name is Lee Dongmin (이동민).

2. Nick name

He is known as the “Morning Alarm” among fellow Astro members. This is because he often wakes up earlier than the other members and is in charge of waking them up.

3. Multi-talented skills

Apart from swooning his fans with his singing talent, Cha Eunwoo is also talented in playing musical instruments namely the guitar, piano and also violin.

4. All-star Clique

Cha Eunwoo has mentioned that one of his role model is fellow actor Seo Kangjoon. Seo would later become a close friend of him.

Apart from that, he is also close friends with fellow 97-liner group – K-Pop male idols who are born in the year 1997 – including Seventeen’s Mingyu, DK and The8, GOT7’s Yugyeom and Bambam and BTS’s Jungkook.

Cha Eunwoo has also made a name for himself prior to his debut with Astro. He has become a model for Naver for approximately two years (2013 to 2014). He was widely recognised during his modelling career before venturing into acting by appearing in a few television dramas and web dramas.

To date, his only appearance on the silver screen is a cameo appearance as Song Hyekyo and Kang Dongwon’s imaginary teenage healthy version of their son, Ahreum in the 2014 movie “My Brilliant Life” (두근두근 내 인생).

Cha Eunwoo is well-known among K-Pop fans for his handsome visuals. Although he might look cold and unapproachable, he is actually a friendly person in real life. Due to his good looking face, he is named one of the best visuals among Korean idols.

Besides that, his facial features have been compared to a real life anime character. Known in Korean as “ManJjitNam” (만찢남) – the term literally means “a man who comes out straight from a comic book”. It means a good looking guy who appears in romantic comic books, typically targeted to younger female audience.
