Ma Dong Seok and Jung Ho Yeon both made it on the list with their much loved MCU movie Eternals and the Netflix smash-hit Squid Game. The magazine introduced the Eternals star, saying, “Ma Dong Seok, better known as Don Lee in Hollywood, started his acting career late in his thirties.” They added, “This year, that trajectory has taken Lee back to the States, where he made his Hollywood debut in Marvel Studios’ “Eternals. Ma calls the step a matter of “good timing,” but his die-hard fans credit him with laser focus, a larger than life persona and the tenacity to make it as an action movie star. ”
