While it's fascinating to see some K-Drama stars speak English in some scenes in shows and movies, it's worth nothing that many of these actors can actually speak foreign languages.

Not only are they equipped with world class acting skills but they also have the ability to converse in a language other than their mother tongue. How cool is that?

Here are five Hallyu stars who are blessed with the bilingual tongue. Read on to know more.

Moon Ga Young

Not many know but one of the "True Beauty" star's first languages is German. Moon Ga Young was born in Karlsruhe, Germany to South Korean parents.

She spent half of her life in Germany before moving back to South Korea to pursue her acting career. Her German-speaking skills have become an edge to her especially when choosing new acting projects.

Check out her cameo in "Delightfully Deceitful" where she once again flaunted her immaculate fluency in German:

Seo Ye Ji

The deep and sultry voice of "It's Okay to Not Be Okay" star Seo Ye Ji has been her charm since she made her debut in the Hallyu scene.

However, her allure is doubled whenever she speaks Spanish. Unbeknownst to many, Seo Ye Ji moved to Madrid, Spain to study Journalism at Complutense University.

Kim Go Eun

Everyone was surprised when Kim Go Eun presented at the 7th Asian Film Awards and spoke Mandarin flawlessly like a native speaker.

However, there's no doubt that she can speak the language with ease after the "Yumi's Cells" actress lived in Beijing, China for more than 10 years with her family.

When she dreamed of becoming a filmmaker, and eventually an actress, she moved back to South Korea to begin her now flourishing career.

Choi Woo Shik

Choi Woo Shik is next on the list. Aside from Korean, the "Our Beloved Summer" speaks fluent English.

He and his family moved to Canada when he was still young. When he turned 21, Choi Woo Shik returned to South Korea to audition.

Ahn Hyo Seop

In most of his dramas, Ahn Hyo Seop flaunted his top tier English which impressed both fans and K-Drama newbies.

Like Choi Woo Shik, the "Business Proposal" star is Canadian. Despite being born in South Korea, he spent all his life in Toronto, making him a citizen.
