Will pursued a degree in computers in case his dream of a football career didn’t pan out. In 2002, he signed with the Baltimore Ravens, in 2007 signed on as a free agent with the Houston Texans and most recently earned a Pro Bowl selection, dashing any chances of  sitting behind a desk pushing pencils. Korean and African American heritage are at the core of his GQ-level allure which has landed him modeling jobs as Jennifer Hudson’s love interest in her new music video, "If This Isn't Love."

... on HIMSELF

Strengths: "I'm very self driven and open minded. Sometimes I can be hard-headed but it can be good in ways. I don't think I'm set in my ways but I'm not the one who comes over easy. I know what I want and I know how to get it attitude. I'm very independent and very work-oriented. You got to have those traits to be who you are."

Weakness: "I don't think I have any weaknesses, kryptonite, no, I'm joking. I hate to let people down or see people cry or be miserable. I think my weakness is for things in this world. Like people going to war, those who were in Hurricane Ike, families who lost homes. I'm weak for that, it's just the way this world happens to these people. That hurts me. That's my weakness is seeing people who suffer, I think that's the biggest thing."

What's the biggest misconception about football players: "That it's all about ourselves. A lot of people judge us before they get to know us. To get to know me,  you got to just listen to me talk or get to know me on a personal level, instead of saying, `hey, I think he's cocky or stuck up, if he doesn't say hello.' Maybe it's the way I look. But I always smile so I don't think I have a cocky attitude. The biggest misconception is that I'm cocky."

Others may not see: "I like to live life. I take everything with a grain of salt. Nothing bothers me because life's too short to be worrying about things that you can't control."

Interests: "I like traveling. Learn different cultures, different languages and just seeing things that God put on this earth for us to see. And just to kind of get away. I've been blessed to have the opportunity to do that so I'm taking full advantage. I like to play video games, Halo, Xbox. I like to watch movies and TV shows when I have time."

Turn-ons: "When everybody around me is happy, when there's no worries about money, just living in the moment. If we're all at a good dinner and everybody's enjoying themselves, just a group of people having a good time."

Turn-offs: "People with bad attitudes, who judge and compare. When they're doing that, I think that's my biggest turn off."

Special Talents: "I speak a little Koran and a little Portuguese. I guess that could be a talent. I try to sing on that video game Rock Band."

Charities: "Shop with a Jock. I took about 50 kids and gave them backpacks and T-shirts and $100 so they could just shop for whatever they wanted for themselves. They're less privileged. Most kids don't get the opportunity to shop, they don't have money, their parents don't have money or they came from a battered family, alcohol, drugs. So it gives them an opportunity to go out there and experience what other kids love to do on Christmas. It was just an opportunity for kids to venture out and meet the athletes and also get a toy or video game that they always wanted. A lot athletes in the league do that."

Travels: South America, Puerto Rico, Bahamas. I definitely want to try to go to Europe this year. I've been to hi, Brazil, Rio de Janeiro. I've been to Korea before. Never to Africa."

Spirituality: "I'm Christian. I'm blessed, if it wasn't for him, I wouldn't be in this place now. It's hard during season because we practice on Sundays but we have chapel on Saturday nights, it's like a mini bible study."

Does being a strong Christian conflict with your career: "Oh yeah, there's lust everywhere. It's hard, sometimes you got to choose when to go out because you don't know what's out there. Just surround yourself with good people. Don't put yourself around trouble. I've been blessed not to be in trouble or get caught up in stuff that other people have, you just got to be strong headed."

Fashion sense: "Unique. I have my own sense of style. I like to change it up a little bit. They always say don't wear white after Labor Day but I still do it, you know. It all depends on the mood or how you feel. I can go from a suit jacket to some nice jeans with some Chuck Taylors and wear a hat with it. It all depends what mood I'm feeling."

Staying healthy: "You are what you eat. That's a very cliche thing to say but if you eat fast foods all the time, it's going to catch up to you. You definitely got to eat the good foods and always a big glass water. You got to drink a lot of water to stay in shape and be healthy. I try to stay away from sugars. Besides football training, I do spinning classes, Pilates, boxing and stretching."

What touches my soul: "Living in San Diego, being around the beach, good weather, good people. The environment that I'm in just frees your mind. I could be anywhere around the world but when I come back to San Diego, it's my safe haven. So being around the beach and good weather in San Diego, it doesn't beat that, it makes me feel at peace. I have a place in Houston too, during the season."

... on WOMEN

I first notice ... "her smile. If she has a good look about her and a smile. I think a smile goes a long way. It's just captivating. You can just tell about the energy she carries. She doesn't have to say much, but the smile, you can catch it from a long way."

Attention-getters: "Just be yourself. Don't try to do things that you would never do just to try to get my attention. There's so many beautiful women, but what's going to stand out is when you're being yourself. If we're having a talk, don't try to be more than what it is. Don't try to impress me, just be yourself."

Ideal woman: "She definitely has to be open minded. She has to love Tabasco sauce and spicy foods. Someone who's outgoing, open minded, very free spirited, spiritual, understands Christianity and definitely is a family person. Someone who loves her family and definitely looks for a family of her own. Those are definitely the traits I look for in a woman."

I can't resist a woman who ... "has nice legs."

Most important quality in a woman: "A sense of family. My ideal woman is when you just know that your wife's going to just hold it down in the family, like if you're at work. She's got to hold it down, be that mother figure. She's never going to call you and say I can't deal with this, the kids are doing that. You got to know that she's going to be the backbone of the family."

Ideal date: "A great meal, good conversation, a nice bottle of wine and just get to know each other's interests and hobbies. It depends where we're at, if we're in San Diego, go to the beach or go somewhere to talk. Just get to know someone on the first date, that goes a long way."

What makes me call a woman back after a first date: "You have to follow up to say, `I just appreciate the time that we had and we'll talk later.' Just a good vibe, you just can tell. You know in dates, you just know, it's like, `man when are we gong to do this again, what are you doing later this week?' It's just one of those good vibe things, you just can tell."

I'd never date a woman who ... "smokes."

How I show I care: "I'm a hopeless romantic. Leave a nice little cute note or a rose on the bed."

I wish women understood ... "men are a different species. We're just different. The biggest thing for a woman to do is she has to be patient. Don't try to change us on the first night or the second week, if it comes, it comes, if it doesn't, it's not meant to be."

How are you different than us: "You guys are very emotional and guys aren't very emotional or as passionate about things that women are. Women cry over little things or they take offense to things that they see and we really don't see. We overlook things and we're just very hard headed when it comes to stuff like that."

So should we just accept that you guys just aren't as emotional: "Well, I'm not saying accept it but don't try to force it. What women try to do is force us to be someone real quick or very emotional Sometimes we don't think of the perfect thing to say, we don't think all the time."

... on RELATIONSHIPS 

On relationships: "I'm not really a big relationship guy. I'm more of a get to know you and see what goes from there. It's very hard to be in a relationship because there's no rule books for it, there's no manual saying how to do it right. If I knew how to be in a relationship, I'd be married right now, I guess. It's very hard with my career. You got to be understanding, we're never in one place, we're here for half the season, back home the other half, so it's very hard."

Is a relationship important to you: "Definitely, but it's just so hard to find the right woman to understand your personality. I think that's why you got to find somebody who's very open minded."

What I love most about being in a relationship: "Not being alone at night, just coming home to someone special. It's not always going out all the time, just laying low on the weekend, getting into some pjammies, watching some movies and just hang out and be stupid, that's how a relationship's supposed to be like, fun and full of laughter and joy with another."

Top relationship keys: "Communication, understanding and you got to have a little space. You can't always be cuddly and you can't be together 24/7 because you're going to be sick of each other."

What kind of boyfriend are you: "Oh man, I'm a great boyfriend. Because when I'm in a relationship, it's all about her. That's why its hard for me to be in a relationship because I know when I give my all, I give my all and I try to do the best I can. I'm not saying it's always perfect, but I try."
 
What I expect: "Just to grow and understand each other. And understand that it's not a sprint, it's a marathon. It all should be consistent - the whole marathon, keep your pace. There's gong to be ups and downs in a relationship. I just want you to be the same throughout the whole thing. If we're together, we finish the race together, if not, I got to call it quits."

Have you been in love before: "Oh yeah, who hasn't?"

When I'm in love,  ... "I can't see myself without that person every night, every breath, every second .... "

What makes me feel close to a woman: "Things we've been through, the ups and downs, the trials and tribulations. Where someone knows you more than someone else."

What makes a woman marriage material: "When you find out, tell me because I don't know. I guess you just know when you know, that's what some people say."

... on SEX 

What makes sex good: "When you have a good connection."

Most sensual part of a woman's body: "Her butt, her legs."

Sexiest thing a woman can wear in private: "Nothing, just heels."

Surefire way to seduce me: "Seduce me, huh? That's a good one. I don't know. Does this have to be PG13? Just wear a sexy lingerie outfit."

... on LIFE

Making my mark: "Just living day to day. Just being African American and Korean in the NFL and to tell my story. I think I've left a mark when people say you can't do it and you just overcome that and go against the grain and just do it. I got that from my parents, seeing them always just go through the hard times and understanding that nothing's ever given to you in life so you just got to go out there and prove it and do it. Drive and faith. Faith is the biggest thing, it rules everything. Just pray, get on your knees and things can happen if you just put your mind to it and just pray."

Responsibility to society: "People will say they don't but you do have a  responsibility because people see you on TV and in the community. If you have a couple drinks, you never want to step in a car because you never know who you might be hurting on the streets. You don't know who's watching so you definitely have to have responsibility in everything you do."

Valuable life lesson: "Do onto others as you want done onto yourself."

I must ... "see as much places I can see in this world, maybe one day climb the Himalayas and swim with sharks."

Best advice received: "Thoughts determine what you want, actions determine what you get."

Best advice I've given a woman: "I don't think I give a lot of women advice. If someone asks me what I think, I'll give them my say."

... on HIS FAVORITE THINGS

Movie: "Top Gun."

TV Show: "Entourage, The Hills."

Music: "I love everything from Jack Johnson, Ben Harpe, Dan Dryer, reggae."

Food: "Korean. Bogobe and galbi. It's marinated beef."

... final THOUGHTS

Wheels: "72 Oldsmobile Cutlass. I fixed it up. Maroon Mercedes."

Always in my refrigerator: "Bottle of tequila, that's about it."

Hottest possession: "My California King bed. I love to sleep."

I'd change places for 24 hours with ... "Barack Obama. Just to see how it feels to be the face of history for 24 hours. Just being up there in front of the world and just to see how it feels to be a president for 24 hours especially in his shoes, what we went through in this country."

I'd most like to hang out with ... "Oprah. because she's the most powerful woman right now, I think. Go fly her private jets and go somewhere."

Anything you would ask her: "If I could hold some of her money."

You make good money: "But do you know what she makes."

Celeb I'd love to take on a date: "Eva Mendez. Everyone has one celebrity crush, and I think she's mine."

Me in two words: "Outgoing. Funny."
