Daniel, being famous for his role in “My Name is Kim Sam Soon” and Dennis, currently acting in “My Sweet Spy”, both are Eurasians and are spicing up the Korean entertainment industry. As both started off as a model turned actor, it’s no wonder many like to make comparison to the twosome.

I came up with a thread for them as they are both handsome and pleasing to the eyes, plus, it would be fun to see how far the two of them could soar differently in Korea. And I bet both have their supporters.

As for me, I personally prefer Daniel, cos he reminded me of Daniel Wu whom I like also.

Any opinions from all you Afz?

Daniel Phillip Henney
full name: Daniel Phillip Henney

weight: 72kg; about 158 lbs

Daniel Henney born on November 28, 1979 in USA, is a Korean actor.
Newcomer Daniel Henney is wowing mostly female audiences with the role of Henry Kim, a radiologist who is devotedly in love with Hee-jin (played by Chung Ryeo-won) in the MBC drama "My Name is Kim Sam-soon."

The character the actor plays at first sight dazzles with chiseled good looks and a disarming smile. But on closer acquaintance he reveals himself as thoughtful and considerate, a man you could easily credit with the courage to throw away everything he has for his beloved, such is the air of old-fashioned chivalry that surrounds him.

Henney started modeling in the U.S. in 2001 and has worked in France, Italy, Hong Kong and Taiwan. After his debut in Korea last year with an advertisement for the men's cosmetics line Odyssey, his face became better known in commercials with Jeon Ji-hyun for Olympus cameras and Kim Tae-hee for Klasse air conditioners. He only made the leap to drama with "My Name is Kim Sam-soon."

Henney is of mixed extraction, born to an ethnic Korean mother who was adopted in the U.S. and an Anglo-American father. His Busan-born mother speaks no Korean since she was sent to the U.S. at the age of one. In the drama, it's delicately revealed that the mother of Henney’s character is also an adoptee.

He will in this k-drama Spring Waltz? I would say the face is Dennis but the acting not so sure.... Dennis seems to appear more in Sweet Spy than Daniel in My Name Is Kim Sam Soon (sorry don't know how to spell it)? It also seems like Dennis is the leading actor in Sweet Spy because [ SPOILER ] The main leading actress falls for him and he falls for her... lol... If more people watch Sweet Spy than they would know what I mean... Anyways... I will always support DENNIS infatuated.gif !

AJAJAJA FIGHTING!!!
pit'fulbluez
daniel henney!!! hes so much more man!! omgsh i saw his pics in the af gallery and wow O.O but i think he cant really act...smiling to much lols even though his purely whites are cute xD
Pink Piggie
Daniel Hennely. He's gorgeous when he smile!
Gork
From watching Kim Sam Soon, looking at pics of both of them and watching news clips of both of them, I must say that Daniel Henney is definitely hotter more charming to me happy.gif
Dennis...he's cute and all but his smile isn't as yummy as Daniels hehe
Ibme
I prefer Daniel Henney, but Dennis Oh looks so good too.
beelicious
Daniel Henney- When I first saw MNIKSS I thought he was kinda cute, but the 2nd time I watched it, his acting seems very "trying" cos he kept pretending to be cute and like friggin smile wayyy too much (not to mention his smile looked very queerish). He seems quite corny in most of his interviews.

Dennis O' Neil- I never cared for who he is until people start blabbing how cute he is...Dennis this...Dennis that...so I watched ONE episode of Sweet Spy and he stood apart from other cute guys I have seen. Well, besides the fact that he is Eurasian, he had this charming aura and his smile doesn't forceful like Daniel Henney. His acting isn't that great, yet, but for a new actor he got a much bigger role than that of Daniel Henney. So, I guess that proves a point or two there.

What episode are you at? 1.gif That's maybe because you didn't get to watch a lot of it... Wait until you get to the middle of the drama smile.gif. They're such a cute couple smile.gif.

I think Daniel just has a nicer smile than Dennis. They actually look very similar. When first watched Sweet Spy I thought Dennis was Daniel for a quick moment.

I think Daniel acts just a little better than Dennis. Dennis was alright but was a little stiff in his acting.

But overall both were good. Don't mind seeing either of them in future series biggrin.gif
lucky girl
I've watched daniel's acting but not dennis' but looking at the pix of dennis I think he is better looking than daniel!!
karylee
i've also only seen daniel's acting and believe he has charm!!! lots too ^^

from looking at photos it seems that dennis is more photogenic...
but i think i need to watch sweet spy just to make sure ^^
polarpooh17
In this month, I have watched both "My Name is Kim Sam Soon" and "Sweet Spy" Comparing both Dennis and Daniel, I have to say I definitely like Dennis more. His acting is lacking in some parts because of the language but I think he definitely looks hotter than Daniel. Daniel looks.. old =/ Dennis is so much hotter and mysterious in Sweet Spy. Although I don't like how his eyes were a lot of the time at the beginning of Sweet Spy, his character was quite suspicious and mysterious, so that was okay. Daniel was sweet, but his character was "just there". It didn't really appeal to me.

Hello there,
He is a cutie in this video. infatuated.gif infatuated.gif When will this movie be available. I can't wait to watch.
californiaLOVE
This is a hard question, since both of them are hot, have a cute smile, and have nice bodies.lol They both seem like they would be really nice too! Maybe one day i'll actually get to meet them and find out, although i doubt that's ever going to happen down.gif anyway, back to the question. I think i'd have to go with Daniel Henney because I've seen more of him and that smile he has..just makes me want to smile myself. infatuated.gif

LoL? That's a big insult to the his fans you know? blink.gif LoL you're insulting him ! Lol you can compare all you want but don't say bad things about others .... Because other people have their own opinion lol ... Can't say Dennis looks weird because I have a reason that Dennis is much better once you watch Sweet Spy? That's when maybe you can compare without insulting people up like you said .... And I'm one of his fans so please lol keep insulting comments to yourself ?
poochie83
I don't think you can compare like that....it depends on the girls....i think some girls are more prone to boyish handsome...and some to more manly handsome.

The ones that prefer boyish handsome will prefer dennis o'neil and the one into manly looking would choose daniel henney

Take a look at some of the avatars of people who have posted in this thread...and the guys they like... u will see a trend...people who like dennis o'neil also likes won bin and such, and they both are boyish handsome to me

Are you sure? daniel just has few scene in Sam Soon, then you can judge him "can act"!?
Did you really watch Sweet Spy, which episod have you watched? if you really watch the show, you can see dennis O keep improving, he really born to be an actor. I can't say he is the best, but at least his acting is definitely better than Daniel.

Yes, I do agree with you but I think Dennis and Won Bin are also partly manly ? biggrin.gif
fioncats
of cos, there are many of handsome actors out there, but why I love Dennis O? Dennis O is a decent, humble person, you can see it in his interviews, that's why I love him.

But all the Daniel's fans, please don't misunderstood, i'm not against whoever love Daniel, just want to share a great person with you all, definitely everybody have their own cup of tea.
Dennis O not just got the look, also the beauty posses inside of him, eventhough he is in korea, he does care about the fans in other countries.

mmm... dear I understand why you think this way.
Daniel is 5 years older than Dennis, of cos he looks much more mature.
You think Dennis more like bad boy type!!?? wow~~ this is the first time I heard ppl describe him like that!!!
maybe you haven't watched any of his interview, you've never seen how nice he treats his fans. He did alot of charity works in korea, he donated out the money he made from shooting Sweet Spy to help underprivilege people. So, you call this "bad boy"!!??
Like I mentioned before, he is decent, humble, kindhearted and he is such a gentlemen.
I won't say any comment about Daniel, bcos I don't know him.
So, please don't simply jump to conclusion when you don't know someone.
For me, Dennis is a god-sent, he is an angel, I believe all his fans have the same thought as me.
Kon
i prefer daniel he was really kool in my name is kim sam soon

Well i agree with you biggrin.gif. But you never really understand an actor at a point sometimes... so if I meet him I can have a proof that I judged him right biggrin.gif. Another thing if Daniel and Dennis are only 2 years apart biggrin.gif. I don't look at Dennis as a bad boy or guy lol. I think you think that way because he glares a lot in Sweet Spy lol other than that he's a sensible guy I believe. Can't judge a person when you haven't meet them yet biggrin.gif.

tsk tsk tsk.. why you get all offended by what I wrote?
As I wrote: I PERSONALLY think, He has a bad-boy look! Does that mean I think he's such a bad guy? Sheesssshhh...
Honestly, I couldn't care less if he/Daniel is. For me, I merely judged it from their looks.
So, please don't simply jump to conclusion when you don't know someone.<= Do you REALLY know him? based on his interview? Who wants to make a fool outta himself on the interviews? Oh, Come on..
Again, I only stated my opinion about him. Please respect that as others will respect yours.

Peace out
cottontails
both are cute

have potential

Daniel Phillip Henney!!! he looked so cool in kim sam soon, havent watched the other guy act but from the picture, Daniel seems alot better. the killer smile and his poses when modeling was mad nice.

Daniel HEnney is HOT@!!!!!!!!!!
He's 6 feet 2inches and looks GREAT@!!!!!!
HE's a great actor!!!!! HE's a sweet guy in "My Name is Kim Sam Soon"
LittoShortyMe
i think both are super cute and super hot. but from watching the two series, i think i like daniel better cause he had a "nice" role and had a sweet role. wheras dennis he's cute and all, in the series he was rough and he looked somewhat evil to me when he'd get mad. But altogether i think both are hot!!! LOL smile.gif
leedster
Both are very good looking and all.. but after watching my sweet spy I must say that daniel is a much better actor than dennis. Dennis is very cute but needs to work on his acting skills more.
Hundiguan
of course i prefer dennis o~~~~
he is more handsome and more cute than daniel~
his smile would kill a lot of girls i think
_Snowie_
the both of them look very alike to me...but since i've only seen daniel henney acting i choose him =P
butterkrispies
I personally love Dennis Oh!!..he is so much hotter than Daniel Henney..lol..I perfer Dennis's acting...pretty good..and he's younger..lol
