Jang Dong-gun (born March 7, 1972) is a South Korean actor and musician. Spending his childhood in Yongsan-gu, Seoul, he later went on to the Hangook School of Arts, dropping out before obtaining a degree. He made his debut in the MBC drama Our Heaven.\ing Actor Award in the Blue Dragon Awards again for his role as the dedicated cop in Nowhere to Hide. In 2000, he starred in the film Friend, which at the time was the highest grossing Korean film of all time. Jang gained widespread critical acclaim for his portrayal of a troubled high school student who joins the mafia, paving the way for him to star in the 2004 Taegukgi: The Brotherhood of War, about the Korean War, which again shattered box office records. His portrayal of one of two brothers drafted into the war earned him a third Blue dragon award.
He was also recently chosen to promote the Nintendo DS Lite in South Korea, which will be released in early January 2007. His commercials promote the English Training game and Brain Age.
