South Korean star Ji Chang Wook is making headlines once again, but this time it’s not for his action-packed roles in K-dramas or films. In the latest episodes of the JTBC variety show My Name Is Gabriel,” Ji Chang Wook took on a completely different persona—living as a husband and father in Mexico. The role, which required him to embody Luis Felipe, for 72 hours, has sparked a wave of admiration and excitement from fans worldwide.

Ji Chang Wook’s Transformation in My Name Is Gabriel

In the show, Ji Chang Wook was assigned the identity of Luis Felipe, a humble agave farmer in Guadalajara, Mexico, who is also a devoted father and husband. This dramatic role reversal allowed viewers to see a new side of the actor, one that is sensitive, caring, and entirely devoted to family life. Fans were particularly moved by scenes where Ji Chang Wook is seen tenderly playing with his on-screen daughter, showing a warmth and affection that left many viewers emotional.

“At first, I didn’t feel much pressure, but once I was there, I was really taken aback,” Ji Chang Wook admitted during a press event. The challenge of embodying another person’s life, especially one so different from his own, was significant, but the actor embraced it wholeheartedly. “Living someone else’s life isn’t easy, and I had no information,” he added, highlighting the difficulties he faced during filming.

Fans’ Reactions: ‘Adorable’ and Heart-Melting

The reaction from fans has been overwhelmingly positive. Many took to social media to express their admiration, with comments such as:

“It’s so adorable to see him in this role. He really melts hearts with his fatherly side.”

Another fan added:

“I never imagined seeing Ji Chang Wook like this, but he’s doing it so well. It’s heartwarming.”

The show, which debuted on June 21, 2024, has been praised for its unique format where celebrities live the life of an unknown person for 72 hours. Ji Chang Wook’s segment as a family man in Mexico was particularly well-received, with fans expressing a desire to see him take on similar roles in future dramas.

What’s Next for Ji Chang Wook?

Ji Chang Wook is set to appear in the historical K-drama “Queen Woo,” alongside Jeon Jong Seo. This upcoming project promises to showcase yet another facet of his versatile acting skills. But for now, fans are enjoying every moment of his tender portrayal in “My Name Is Gabriel.”

This shift in Ji Chang Wook’s career has not only surprised fans but has also added a new dimension to his already impressive acting portfolio.
