Cha Hak-yeon Shines as a Versatile Entertainer in Acting, Music, and Variety Shows

Actor Cha Hak-yeon is making his mark as a versatile entertainer, excelling in acting, music, and variety shows. In November 2020, he signed an exclusive contract with 51K, joining the ranks of So Ji-sub and Ok Taec-yeon.

Cha Hak-yeon is expanding his domain with balanced activities across various fields. He recently showcased his hosting skills and comedic flair as a special MC on YouTube's 'Personal Talent Design School' EP.13. Successfully completing challenges like EQ talent and folding jeans, he added to the entertainment value. He also flawlessly executed Choi Ye-na's 'Catch Catch' challenge, drawing further attention.

Recently, Cha Hak-yeon delivered an unforgettable experience to fans by successfully concluding the 2026 VIXX FAN CONCERT 'Case No. VIXX', marking the first full VIXX concert in seven years. His stable live performances and fluid dance moves enhanced the stage's quality. The event was further enlivened by various game segments and the K-pop challenges fans had been eager to see, showcasing the unchanged chemistry among the members.

Demonstrating his multifaceted talents once again, Cha Hak-yeon is set to appear in the upcoming Coupang Play series 'The Absolute Value of Romance'. He will portray Ga Woo-soo, a genius math teacher at the high school attended by Yeol Joo (played by Kim Hyang-gi), showcasing his 'crispy on the outside, soft on the inside' charm. The public is eagerly anticipating his performance, especially given the real-life 10-year age difference between the two actors.

The Coupang Play series 'The Absolute Value of Romance', featuring Cha Hak-yeon, will premiere in April on Coupang Play.
