Looking for East Asian actor recs

I’m trying to get a more solid image of a character in my mind, which is not a thing I’m very good at; it goes better when I have a casting to look at and then verbalize. But I’ve had to cast a bunch of East Asian male characters lately (mostly for my L5R game), and my brain keeps going back to the same well of possibilities, which is starting to run a little dry. And so I turn to you, the internets, and ask: please share with me names and pictures of East Asian actors or other public figures you especially like! Looking for somebody roughly in their twenties or thirties, i.e. not babyfaced but still fairly young. No particular guidelines as to facial type or personality; I really don’t know what I want this guy to look like, which is why I need brainstorming fodder.

Darrin We would like to recommend a movie to you as well that we both enjoyed. It has been available on Netflix streaming, though not currently.

It is in Korean but is available with English subtitles.

I saw that when I was looking at more pics of Byung Hun Lee on IMDb! Looks *very* shiny.
