“I want to show acting that begins with genuine emotion.”
Actor Kim Dohoon, who has built a versatile career across TV dramas, OTT series and variety programs, has been named to the Entertainment category of Forbes Korea’s “30 Under 30,” which highlights influential figures under the age of thirty.
The Forbes “30 Under 30” project began in the United States in 2011 and now selects innovators under thirty across regions including the Americas, Europe, Asia and Africa. Forbes Korea announces thirty next-generation Korean leaders who are demonstrating influence in fields such as technology, business, entertainment, art, fashion and science while expanding onto the global stage.
Kim made his debut in 2016 through the independent film Following. He drew widespread attention in 2023 with the Disney+ original series Moving, where he played Lee Kanghoon. The performance marked a turning point in his career and established him as a rising actor with strong emotional depth.
Since then he has broadened his acting spectrum with contrasting roles in dramas such as Love Scout and the TVING original series Dear X, portraying characters with distinctly different personalities.
Kim has also been active in variety entertainment. He recently appeared in the MBC program The Secret Friends Club and the Netflix series Agents of Mystery Season 2, where his candid and lively personality drew positive responses from global audiences.
Forbes Korea stated that the “30 Under 30” list highlights individuals who are creating change in their respective industries with new perspectives and innovative ideas.
Kim said, “I’m grateful that my work has been recognized in a meaningful way. I want to present acting that begins with genuine emotion, and I will continue striving to grow into a better actor and a better person.”
With a steadily expanding filmography and praise for performances that emphasize emotional nuance, Kim is preparing to begin filming the upcoming tvN drama Retired Agent Management Team.
