GOSSIP:
|
- Was arrested for a DUI in Oahu, Hawaii. He was booked at the Honolulu Police station and was released. As a consequence, it is expected that Kim's character on Lost, Jin-Soo Kwon, will shortly be killed off in keeping with ABC policy. (October 24, 2007)
- Was included on People Magazine's list of the sexiest men alive in 2005. Matthew McConaughey topped the list.
- Also credited as: Daniel Day Kim
- Nickname: DDK
- Said that playing Jin on Lost (2004) is a relief to him because he's finally playing someone of his own heritage (Korean), having been cast as characters of almost every other Asian heritage but his own.
- Due to his childhood in America, he knew very little Korean before he did Lost (2004). He has said that his co-star on that show Yunjin Kim, who is fluent in both English and Korean, has been invaluable in coaching him on his Korean, which has apparently improved. Ironically, to the audience's knowledge, Daniel's character knows nothing but Korean.
- Grew up in Easton, Pennsylvania.
- His acting heroes are Paul Scofield, Gene Hackman, Robert De Niro, Sidney Poitier, Gene Kelly, Denzel Washington, Robert Duvall and, his favorite, Jonathan Pryce.
- While getting small parts in plays and writing and performing in an improv comedy group, he seriously considered a career in investment banking.
- Attended Freedom High School in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, the same high school as Dwayne Johnson (aka Dwayne Johnson).
- Was a tap dancer in 1980's.
- Frequently makes up words when speaking Korean and often refers to the character of Sawyer as Chewbacca.
- Played a variety of sports while in high school and also really enjoys Tae Kwon Do.
- Edited his high school newspaper and was student government president.
- Immigrated to the United States when he was two years old and was raised by a family full of educated professionals.
