Park Bo-young (Korean박보영; born February 12th, 1990) is a South Korean actress. She is best known for her leading roles in the films Scandal Makers (2008), which garnered her multiple best new actress awards, A Werewolf Boy (2012) and On Your Wedding Day (2018), as well as the television series Oh My Ghost (2015), Strong Girl Bong-soon (2017), Daily Dose of Sunshine (2023), and Our Unwritten Seoul (2025).

Early life and education

Park was born in Jeungpyeong County, North Chungcheong Province, South Korea. She is the second of three daughters. Her father served in the Special Forces Brigade for 34 years.[1][2] She graduated from Jeungpyeong Elementary School, Jeungpyeong Girls' Middle School, Daeseong Girls' Commercial High School and Dankook University's Department of Performing arts with a major in theater and film.[3][4]

Career

Beginnings

Before her official acting debut in 2006, while in middle school, Park appeared in the short film Equal in 2005. The clip won the Challenging Reality Award (현실도전상) at the seventh Seoul International Youth Film Festival (SIYFF 2005).[5] She first appeared on television with a public commercial for Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power while in high school.[6]

2006–2010: Debut, breakthrough and hiatus

Park made her official acting debut in the 2006 high school television series Secret Campus alongside fellow newcomer Lee Min-ho.[7] Among the notable projects during the early stage in her career are the historical epic The King and I and Peabody Award-winning teen drama Jungle Fish with Kim Soo-hyun, based on a true story that depicts the pressures placed on students to achieve and gain admission to prestigious colleges and universities.[8][9]

Park rose to fame after starring opposite Cha Tae-hyun in comedy Scandal Makers, which drew 8.3 million viewers to become the number one top grosser of 2008 and one of Korean cinema's biggest hits.[10] Described by Variety as "excellent" in her role as a spunky teenage mom, Park's much-praised performance swept Best New Actress awards in 2009.[11][12] She was also dubbed as "Nation's Little Sister" because of its success.[13][14] She then starred in a short film directed by Lee Hyun-seung, human rights-themed omnibus If You Were Me 4 in 2009.[15][16]

However, in 2010 she became involved in a series of legal disputes with her then-management agency and a film production company, causing the actress to be tied up in lawsuits and unable to work for the next few years.[17][18][19]

2011–2014: Return to big screen and mainstream success

Park at the PiFan Film Festival in 2011

After she was designated the promotional ambassador (called "PiFan Lady") for the 2011 Puchon International Fantastic Film Festival,[20][21] Park finally ended her four-year absence from the limelight by headlining the 2012 horror thriller Don't Click.[22][23][24] Later that year, she starred alongside Song Joong-ki in fantasy romance film A Werewolf Boy,[25][26][27][28] which surpassed 7 million admissions to become one of the most successful Korean melodramas of all time.[29][30] The song her character sings in the film, "My Prince", was released as a digital single and included in the movie soundtrack.[31]

In 2013, Park joined the cast of Law of the Jungle, a reality-documentary program featuring comedian Kim Byung-man and several celebrities as they explore and survive the New Zealand wilderness.[32]

In a departure from her previous sweet, innocent characters, Park played the tough, potty-mouthed leader of her high school gang in Hot Young Bloods (2014), a teen romantic comedy set in the 1980s.[33] Park, who was born in North Chungcheong Province, said she had fun swearing in the southern dialect, though she found it difficult to master, being a mixture of Jeolla and Chungcheong dialects.[34][35][36]

2015–2019: Television comeback and continued success

In 2015, she headlined the mystery thriller The Silenced, set in a girls' boarding school during the Japanese occupation.[37][38][39] This was followed by dual roles in romantic comedy Oh My Ghost, Park's first television series in seven years.[40][41][42] Her salary of ₩30 million (US$27,000) per episode made her the highest-paid actress to appear on cable channel tvN.[43] The series was a commercial and critical hit, and garnered the Best Actress award for Park at the 4th APAN Star Awards. She was also dubbed as the "romantic comedy queen" by the Korean press.[44]

Park next played the selfish love interest of a mutant in the black comedy Collective Invention, and an entertainment news cub reporter in the workplace comedy You Call It Passion.[45][46]

In June 2016, Park was cast as the title role in JTBC's series Strong Girl Bong-soon, which premiered in February 2017, where she played a character with superhuman strength.[47][48][49] The series became one of the highest rated Korean dramas in cable television history.[50] Due to its popularity, it earned her Korea Reputation Center's highest brand value among Korean TV actors and the highest consumer participation rate in February and March 2017.[51][52]

In September 2017, Park began filming the romance film On Your Wedding Day which premiered in August 2018.[53] She was reunited with Kim Young-kwang, whom she previously acted with in the 2014 film Hot Young Bloods.[54] The film was a box office hit and received positive reviews.[55]

Park then starred in tvN's series Abyss in May 2019, where she played a beautiful prosecutor who transforms into a plain-looking girl after being revived by a mysterious orb.[56][57]

She parted ways with her ten-year agency Fides Spatium in December 2019. Two months later, she signed an exclusive contract with BH Entertainment.[58][59]

2020–present

In December 2020, Park was cast in fantasy romance series Doom at Your Service alongside Seo In-guk,[60] which premiered on May 10, 2021, on tvN.[61] In April 2021, she also began filming Um Tae-hwa's disaster thriller film Concrete Utopia, alongside Lee Byung-hun and Park Seo-joon.[62][63] It was released theatrically on August 9th, 2023.[64] In 2023, Park made a cameo appearance in Strong Girl Nam-soon as Do Bong-soon.[65] She also starred in Netflix original series Daily Dose of Sunshine, which was released on November 3, 2023.[66] In 2024, she was cast as the character Kwon Young-ji for the Disney+ web series Light Shop.[67] She was also invited to the 29th Busan International Film Festival as the host of the opening ceremony.[68]

In the beginning of 2025, Park starred in the Netflix series Melo Movie opposite Choi Woo Shik.[69] In June 2025, the series Our Unwritten Seoul aired on tvN and Netflix, where Park took on the complex challenge of playing dual roles (twins) opposite Park Jinyoung and Ryu Kyung Soo. This series was successful domestically with record ratings and received global acclaim.[70] "One of the calmest and deepest Korean dramas of 2025 has come to an end," TIME, a U.S. daily newspaper, said in a statement.[71][72]

Personal life

Park's ankle ligaments were torn during a workout before shooting began for TV series Strong Girl Bong-soon (2017). In April 2017, the hospital advised her to wear a cast but she had to use ankle tape and started out with physical therapy instead, due to the ongoing filming. Two months after wrapping up the series, she underwent a twenty-minute minor surgery. On September 6, her agency stated that the actress was in the final stages of rehabilitation and would start filming On Your Wedding Day (2018) later that month.[103][104] In November 2019, Park announced a temporary hiatus to recover from arm injury. She also received surgery to remove a scar on her arm.[105]
