Kim Hye-soo (Style) has been a top star for a number of years now, and now her younger brother is getting his shot at acting: The 31-year-old Kim Dong-hee (above) has been cast to play the younger brother to Gong Hyo-jin‘s character in the new MBC drama Pasta. He said, “At home, Hye-soo noona gives me a lot of acting advice. I want to learn a lot from Gong Hyo-jin sunbae.” (Gong is younger, but as an acting veteran, she is Kim’s senior and therefore gets called “sunbae.”)
Every now and again, it’s interesting to take a look at stars’ siblings, such as with Ha Jung-woo and Jo In-sung. Perhaps the best examples of both siblings being successful in their individual careers are the Uhms (as in Jung-hwa and Tae-woong) and Kim Tae-hee and Lee Wan.
The Kims have a third sibling who’s also in the business: middle brother is 35-year-old actor Kim Dong-hyun, who has had roles in dramas Mun Hee and Secret Lovers.
Kim Dong-hee has appeared in music videos, but his official acting debut came as one of Sorabol’s ten Hwarang warriors in Queen Seon-deok. In Pasta, which incidentally takes over Seon-deok‘s Monday-Tuesday timeslot, he’ll play a studious medical student. Pasta premieres on January 4.

Ooh yeah, I mean Gong is younger.
In Seon-deok, he’s Wang Yoon:

wow he’s really good looking! he makes for a hot, manly guy and a hot, sexy girl. He really doesn’t look 31!
I ever saw a pix… that Kim Hye Soo hug a boy with tattoo… Is it the same boy… or was it another brother… anyway…. rawr… pretty siblings!
@tina, i laughed too! Just cuz the resemblence is so very much there….same eyes and nose! wow!
its kinda funny how a lot of celebrity siblings are so alike…..but there are more siblings that don’t look alike in reality I think (my sister and I being a prime example).
He kind of looks like that one many that was pregnant with a child.
