• Interview with 'AAA 2025' Best Actor Award, iKON Award Winner Choo Young-woo

Actress Choo Young-woo (26) expressed her respect for idol singers while showing her versatile charms.

Choo Young-woo, who appeared like a comet, showed off his unique charm in various genres and became a popular actor who received love calls from Chungmuro and small theaters. Choo Young-woo, who stamped his face on the public with dramas "School 2021" and "Oasis," was loved last year for his activities in a variety of genres, including "Severe Trauma Center," "Oksi Lady Exhibition," "Place," "Gyeonwoo and the Fairy," and the movie "Tonight, Even if This Love Disappears from the World."

Thanks to this, Chu Young-woo won the Icon Award and the Best Actor Award at the "10th Anniversary Asian Artist Awards 2025" held at Kaohsiung National Stadium on December 6 last year. I met Chu Young-woo, who recently finished filming a drama after a busy time.

Chu Young-woo performed at the awards ceremony, performing a special stage with Choi Ye-na with the honor of winning two gold medals at last year's 'AAA 2025'. Chu Young-woo said, "It was the first time that such a format was huge. The scale was bigger than I imagined. At first, I was overwhelmed by the atmosphere and was nervous, he said. "That's why I couldn't express my feelings properly whenever I won an award. Others are really comfortable talking. The name of the award was too grand for me, so I thought I should work harder, and I felt so good. I was also very happy to see the performances of my favorite singers," he said.

Chu Young-woo also shared the behind-the-scenes story of the umbrella performance with Choi Ye-na at the awards ceremony. He said, "I really respect singers. I went to rehearsals and prepare the day before, and there was a lot to do and it was amazing. Yena is a female solo artist, so she prepares and is confident. It's really cool. I thought that it wasn't everything I could see, but that I was making a lot of effort behind the scenes, he said. "I felt like I loved my stage so much, so I was a little stimulated next to him. I even thought that I was working too comfortably as an actor. I worked hard because I didn't want to bother you, but I was satisfied because it came out pretty," he said.

When asked if he would like to perform at this year's 'AAA 2026', Choo Young-woo said, "Will you invite me?" and laughed, "I'm usually the type to work hard on everything when I put a seat on it." If I have a chance next time, I will sing and dance again."

In fact, Chu Young-woo is known to have received idol suggestions from JYP Entertainment in the past. Watching the actual idol's performance, I thought, "What would it have been like if I were an idol?"

Chu Young-woo said, "Phew. I thought I was really good at not doing it," he said, shaking. "What I felt while watching idol singers' performances and talking with them is that anyone can act, but not everyone can perform on stage. I wondered how hard they had tried, and it was amazing and cool. I want to try it at least once in my next life. If the actor feels like the moon, the singer feels like the sun. It takes some time for actors to act and film, but singers show it right on the spot. Of course, each actor and singer seems to have their own charm. But idol singers also seemed to have a lot of things to prepare. In the next life, if possible, at least once," he said.
