Choi Bo-min Transitions from Idol to Actor with Debut in Horror Film 'Ghost Train'

Actor Choi Bo-min is set to make his big-screen debut with a strikingly different visual style from his idol days. After his exclusive contract with Woollim Entertainment expired last year, he left the boy group Golden Child to pursue an acting career.

'Ghost Train' is a mystery horror film that follows Da-kyung, a horror YouTuber played by Joo Hyun-young, as she investigates the secrets of Gwanglim Station, where mysterious disappearances occur, leading to terrifying events. Choi Bo-min plays 'Woo-jin,' a producer who collaborates with Da-kyung on her YouTube content.

Woo-jin is a supportive figure for Da-kyung, who is disheartened by low viewership, helping her regain her footing. With his charming looks and warm personality, he becomes the object of Da-kyung's affection.

In the character stills released on the 16th, Choi Bo-min captivates as he embodies Woo-jin. His face, filled with complex emotions, draws attention as he gazes into the distance. Despite his restrained expression, Choi Bo-min's eyes convey a tension that heightens anticipation for the film.

Another still reveals Woo-jin's gentle nature, as he holds a cake and throws a party for his colleagues, showcasing the character's endearing traits that make him irresistible to Da-kyung.

Choi Bo-min's seamless portrayal of Woo-jin in the stills raises expectations for his screen debut. Known for his roles in various genres, including the Playlist drama 'A-Teen 2,' tvN's 'Melting Me Softly,' JTBC's '18 Again,' and KakaoTV's 'Shadow Beauty,' Choi Bo-min has established himself as a 'trustworthy actor.'

This summer, he takes on his first leading role in 'Ghost Train,' delivering pure horror to captivate the summer box office. Audiences are eager to see Choi Bo-min's intense performance in this new acting transformation.

'Ghost Train' is set to hit theaters on July 2nd.
