Born in 1981, Dennis Wu has a very Westernized face, slender legs, a high nose bridge, and half Korean and half American blood, which makes him uniquely handsome; at the same time, he also inherits the humility and kindness characteristic of Orientals. His innocent brown eyes and jet-black hair make him look as charming on the outside and on the inside, making people deeply attracted to him.
Dennis, whose father was a U.S. military station in South Korea and whose mother was Korean, lived with his parents in Japan and Germany as a child, and the family later settled in Atlanta, USA. When he was 16 years old, he accidentally learned the news of the model competition, and Dennis, who was 188 centimeters tall and weighed 83 kilograms, decided to try it out with curiosity, and as a result, he began to work as a cover model for magazines. In college, he grew into a beautiful man who used modeling as a part-time job, and occasionally walked the catwalk in Singapore and Hong Kong. During that time, he shot a lot of advertising films, the most well-known is that he acted as a spokesperson for Mansoureton, and also co-produced an advertisement for sunscreen with Lin Xinru, which then attracted the attention of Korean advertisers and invited him to go to Korea to shoot advertisements. It was this opportunity that brought a turning point in his life, and Dennis embarked on the road of acting.
At that time, the "Sweet Spy" crew was struggling to choose a male lead, and the producer saw Dennis's car commercial, although it was only a few seconds, but it made the producer's eyes light up: "Isn't this the male protagonist we have been looking for?" In this way, Dennis was electrocuted for the first time as an actor. The male number one Han Runri, played by him, is a multinational spy, athletic, shrewd, and speaks five languages, and meets Li Shun'ai, a traffic policewoman, and the two have a romantic love with laughter and tears.
Due to the perennial settlement in the United States, and two weeks before the start of the production received a notice to star, the English-speaking he and the Korean-speaking actress are completely "chicken and duck", and the cooperation between the two is more dependent on "eyebrow communication". In order to better interpret the role, Dennis went to learn acting every morning, rushed to the crew in the afternoon to report, "learn and sell now", and actually achieved good results, and he became famous in one fell swoop after the film was released.
Of course, his popularity is more because of his handsome appearance, Dennis does not deny this, he said that he just started to learn acting, certainly not so perfect, but in the days to come, he will actively work hard to let everyone see his transformation.
In his second episode, "The Witch's Game", Dennis made a bold attempt to use all Korean dialogue, which was naturally not an easy task for him, who has always been a native english speaker. During that time, learning languages and memorizing lines with the teacher became his daily compulsory courses, often filming during the day and memorizing lines at night, spending one sleepless night after another. After some effort, although he is not very fluent in Korean, he can basically understand it, and he also personally uploads greeting cards in Korean on his website, thanking the fans who have supported him for a long time.
Although Dennis has achieved good word-of-mouth and ratings in every TV series, the appearance of the mixed-race child has limited his acting career after all, there are not many roles suitable for him, coupled with language barriers, he laughs at himself a lot of times like an "activity set", there are not many scenes that really need to say lines, but lines are one of the important factors to verify the actor's acting skills. Therefore, Dennis's figure still appears the most in commercials.
During this period, Dennis also returned to the United States and made a cameo appearance in the American drama "New Leaping Love Sea", but in the American drama, there are not many roles that can have him. How to continue his acting career was a problem that Dennis had been troubled for a long time.
However, the so-called willow dark flowers bright spring, with the idol drama "Witch Game" in the popularity of Anhui Satellite TV, Dennis in the play played the role of Jonny, a cook who silently guards his lover, is deeply loved by the audience, and his popularity in China has soared, and has been appreciated by Li Xiang, the host of Hunan Satellite TV. Li Xiang invited him to star in the TV series in which he was a producer, "Accidentally Falling in Love with You". The drama is adapted from the popular Korean drama "Blue Life and Death Love", Dennis plays the role of the rich second generation created by Yuan Bin, who is rebellious and unscrupulous on the surface, but in his heart he longs to love and be loved, and loves the heroine exclusively, even if he knows that the other party's choice is not his own.
Such a flattering role played by the handsome Dennis is of course surprisingly good, and he has successfully opened the first step in China's development. Next, Dennis starred in the romantic comedy film "Let's Date" based on Guo Jingming's novel, which was also Dennis's first time playing a male protagonist on the big screen, and the response was very good.
Dennis claimed to be an easy-going person who received an education in Western culture from an early age and came to Korea to receive the influence of Eastern culture when he grew up, and these experiences had a great influence on his personality. In his opinion, whether it is Eastern culture or Western culture, as long as it is a good thing, he will accept it.
During the filming of "Sweet Spy", Dennis Wu donated 100 winter coats to the crew, and also exchanged the rewards for heating coal to personally send to poor families in South Korea. At that time, the South Korean media was very surprised that he personally went with only one pair of gloves. In poor Korean families, although the language is not well understood, his kind smile and kindness have touched countless people.
Dennis, who never left behind in doing good, called on the public to donate money for poor children, and under his leadership, many Korean people, especially young people, have a new understanding of "doing good deeds". Dennis Wu uses American kindness and Korean humility to make people realize his sincere philanthropic heart. All good deeds are very natural for Dennis Wu, who has been a hospital volunteer in the United States, and he laughs and says, "Caring helps illuminate everything and makes me feel happy, so I want to continue to help the poor and hope that others can help them as well." Doing so makes me feel good. ”
