The actor was born on August 5, 1991 in the Jeollanam province in South Korea. He looks much younger, doesn’t he?
According to his agency’s actor profile, Wi Ha-joon’s hobbies include acrobatics and boxing, so we imagine he loves being active and taking care of his body.
Wi Ha-joon’s first-ever project was a short film called 그들의 평화 (or Peace in Them) in 2012. But he became consistently active after his next project in 2015, which is the Kim Go-eun-led Coin Locker Girl, where he played a supporting role.
Wi Ha-joon is managed by MSTeam Entertainment, which also houses veteran actress Son Ye-jin.
Wi Ha-joon joined the Theater and Film Department of Sungkyul University, but he is currently on a leave of absence.
The actor rose to prominence in 2018 for his main role in Gonjiam: Haunted Asylum, a found-footage horror film based on a real-life psychiatric hospital. More recently, he played a psychopathic killer out to get a deaf woman in the 2021 film Midnight.
For those who prefer kilig over suspense, you might recognize Wi Ha-joon as the freelance book designer Ji Seo-joon in Romance Is a Bonus Book or the popular baseball genius Ye Ji-hoon in 18 Again. He probably gave you a major case of second-lead syndrome because of how charming he is. Wi Ha-joon also played the younger brother of the female lead in Something in the Rain, which was led by Seo Ye-jin and Jung Hae-in.
Before the year ends, you’ll see Wi Ha-joon again in another drama. He’s joining Lee Dong-wook (Goblin, Touch Your Heart) and Han Ji-eun (Lovestruck in the City and My Roommate Is A Gumiho) in the upcoming action series Bad and Crazy. Wi Ha-joon will play the crazy yet righteous K, who dreams of being a hero.
