Guest atel Posted December 7, 2009 ^ interestingly, his name doesn't mean he's raised in the U.S. or any other english speaking country or that he's half. it just happened his father game him the name of Daniel because his birth was considered a gift from heaven. apparently his father had a vasectomy (after the parents had their first son) but despite that his parents got pregnant with Daniel. he talks about it in this article --> http://star.mt.co.kr/view/stview.php?no=20...1&outlink=1 ~ as for his english speaking ability... i guess similar to anyone born in korea...? i guess another fyi he and yun shiyun are the same age, even though choi daniel plays the uncle.

Guest jjongielove Posted May 25, 2010 I like Choi Daniel! I can't wait to watch him with Goo Hye Sun in "The Musical" drama! Also his movie with Lee Min Jung and Park Shin Hye in "Cyrano Agency". Awww only one page? this thread needs some pics!!! updated news: all credits: minjee&susamerica@GHSthread Thank you minjee for the article. The article does not say eveything is 100% confirmed but it seems that we will see GHS in <The Musical> drama. Yeah!! [name='minjee' date='May 24 2010, 07:59 PM' post='15958143'] Article about "The Musical" I'm surprised to see Park Kyung Lim part of the cast along Choi Daniel & Ock Jo Hyun. Park Kyung Lim is one funny lady! I'm excited! It looks like the drama will be airing in KBS. Hyesun sticks to KBS after Pure19, Strongest Chilwoo & BOF 드라마 '더 뮤지컬', 구혜선-최다니엘 이어 옥주현-박경림 합류 Drama, 'The Musical', GHS-Choi Daniel, to be joined by Ok Joo Hyun-Park Gyung Lim [스포츠조선 T―뉴스 이다정 기자] 드라마 '더 뮤지컬'이 출연 라인업을 어느 정도 확정해 본격적인 제작에 시동을 건다. [sports Chosun T--News Reporter Lee Sah Jung] The drama called <The Musical> has somewhat confirmed its cast line-up and is about to turn its motor on to start the production. '더 뮤지컬'의 제작 관계자는 24일 "구혜선과 최다니엘이 출연을 확정지었으며 옥주현과 박경림 역시 드라마에 합류하기로 구두 합의했다"고 밝혔다. 구혜선과 최다니엘은 지난 4월 서울 광진구에 위치한 유니버설아트센터에서 옥주현과 신성록이 주연한 뮤지컬 '몬테크리스토'를 관람해 눈길을 끈 바 있다. On May 24th, an affiliate of <The Musical> revealed that GHS and Choi Daniel have both confirmed to act in the drama. Ok Joo Hyun as well as Park Gyung Lim have verbally promised to participated in the drama. Choi Daniel and GHS have gained attention already on May 4th for their appearance as spectators at the musical show called 'Monte Cristo' starring Ok Joo Hyun and Shin Sung Rok at the Universal Art Center in Seoul. 구혜선과 최다니엘의 출연 확정에 이어 '몬테크리스토'의 여주인공 옥주현 역시 출연이 유력시 돼, '더 뮤지컬'은 옥주현의 드라마 데뷔작이 될 예정이다. 관계자는 "뮤지컬계에서도 입지를 굳힌 옥주현이 뮤지컬 드라마에 적역이라고 판단했다. 박경림 역시 작년 말부터 뮤지컬 '헤어스프레이'의 주연을 맡아 공연을 성공적으로 이끈 만큼, 적극적으로 섭외에 나섰다"고 전했다.After GHS and Choi Daniel were confirmed, Ok Joo Hyun was strongly influenced to appear in the drama. <The Musical> would be OK's debut drama. Ok is already successful in the world of musicals so it is very fitting for her to take a role in a musical drama. Since the end of last year, Park Gyung Lim made a successful lead in <Hair Spray> musical and has actively came forward to participate in the musical drama. 관계자는 이어 "'더 뮤지컬'이 대다수 주연 배우들의 출연을 거의 확정지었다. 스타급 배우들을 비롯해 실력이 검증된 신예 배우들이 출연하게 된다"라며 "주연급 배우들은 27일부터 28일 경기도 인근으로 MT 겸 워크샵을 떠난다. 워크샵은 친목을 도모하면서 드라마의 세부 내용에 대해 논의하는 자리가 될 것"이라고 전했다. The affiliate of <The Musical> also reported that most of the leading actors have been confirmed for the drama. Along with the star-level actors, few new actors identified already as talented will partake in the drama. The leading actors will attend a MT and Workshop sessions on May 27 through 28 at the Kyung Gi Do In Geun. The purpose of the sessions is to promote friendship among the actors and to discuss the details about the drama. 한편 '더 뮤지컬'은 뮤지컬 배우들의 꿈과 사랑을 그리는 뮤지컬 드라마로, 하반기 KBS 편성이 유력하다. <The Musical> is a muscial drama about musical actors' dreams and love. Most likely KBS will air the drama in the latter half of the year. In the DC, someone mentioned that Choi Daniel also left a signed white mug at the Cafe Manolin. someone mentioned that the drama will most likely air on Mondays and Tuesdays on KBS. GHS seems to stick with KBS. ADD: Someone at DC also added that GHS will tape the shoeshine portion on May 25th for Kim Seung Woo Show and that GHS is also suppose to tape the second part of KimSeungWoo Show on May 27th and that she will be late to the MT-Workshop for the musical drama. They also remind us that GHS will again become very busy with the upcoming Tokyo Short Short FF, the Magic Opening and starting the flming for the musical drama. crlink: http://news.nate.com/view/20100525n04534 anyone not familiar with Choi Daniel?
