Lee Dong Wook is one of South Korea's hottest eligible bachelors, and it looks like the 35-year-old actor is fond of kids and looking forward to have his own.
Appearing as a guest star on KBS2's "Entertainment Weekly," Lee revealed his ideal family set up and the number of kids he wants to have. "I don't care if they're sons or daughters, I just want at least three children," Soompi quoted the actor as saying.
The "Goblin" star got a taste of fatherhood when he appeared in the reality show "The Return of Superman" where he got a chance to look after the children of South Korean soccer player Lee Dong Gook. On the show, Dong Wook was tasked to take care of the three children. Not having a lot of experience with babysitting, the actor appeared to struggle, but nevertheless gave his best and enjoyed the experience.
During the interview, Dong Wook also revealed that he wants to host his own talk show and that he would want Shin Dong Yoeb as his first guest. "He was the first person to really mentor me on variety shows," The Hotel King" actor explained his choice.
Meanwhile, Dong Wook currently stars as the mysterious and handsome Grim Reaper in "Goblin." He stars alongside Gong Yoo and Kim Go Eun. The series tells the story of a goblin (Gong Yoo) who wants to end his life of immortality. In order to do so, he needs to find a human bride (Kim Go Eun). Dong Wook, on the other hand, plays the amnesiac Grim Reaper.
The Dec. 12 broadcast of "Goblin" was able to defeat "Descendants of the Sun" in terms of buzz-worthy TV drama rankings, Soompi reported. "Goblin" scored 12,500 points on its first week of broadcast, while KBS' "Descendants of the Sun" was able to achieve the same numbers only five weeks after its release. "Goblin" maintained its streak in its second week of broadcast. The numbers were crunched by Good Data Corporation, the company that gathers and analyzes data about currently-airing drama series.
"Goblin" airs every Friday and Saturday on tvN.
