Choi Min Soo in the 1995 drama Sandglass

I finished watching the 1995 drama Sandglass, and I loved it! It was my first time watching Choi Min Soo in a drama, and his acting and looks just blew me away. Strange to say, I thought of Russell Crowe (from Gladiator) while watching Choi Min Soo on screen. Maybe it’s the gaze, maybe it’s the aura he exudes (cue the sunlight), maybe it’s the role, but the correlation is there!

I know they don’t look physically alike…but something about their acting in their respective films just made me connect them together.
