One of the most prominent performers in the Korean cinema and television industries right now is Park Seo Joon.
Though he has gained recognition for his work in the romance genre, he has also dabbled in other genres as he has progressed through the years.
He made his professional debut in the entertainment industry in 2011 when he appeared in the music video for the song “I Remember” by Korean rapper Bang Yong Guk.
Over the following several years, he progressively demonstrated his abilities by landing supporting parts in numerous well-known K-dramas, including Dream High 2 (2012), Pots of Gold (2013), and One Warm Word (2013).

He gained international recognition as a mainstream Korean actor in the ensuing years, landing major parts in hit dramas and films such as Hwarang, Fight for My Way, What’s Wrong with Secretary Kim?, The Divine Fury, Itaewon Class, Gyeongseong Creature, and more.
