Woo Do Hwan is this year’s ambassador for promoting Hanbok. Commissioned by Hanbok Promotion Center, which is under the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, the next generation Hallyu star posed for Hanbok Magazine as part of the promotion.
The pictorial’s concept demonstrates the fusion of modern and traditional style in Hanbok. Inspired by an art technique called Marbling which uses the natural patterns created when mixing oil and water.
The visual displayed wearing Hanbok has created interest in the actor’s next project – jTBC’s historical drama 'My Country'.
My Country is the actor’s first historical drama project. Set in the later Goryeo period to the early Joseon Dynasty, Woo plays the role of Nam Sun Ho, a smart and skilled individual from a well-known family. The drama centers around the desire for power and patronage and it is scheduled to air on the second half of 2019.
