Park Ye-young (Korean: 박예영; born August 22, 1989) is a South Korean actress. After graduating from the Film Department of Konkuk University College of Arts and Design, Park began her acting career in 2013, and has since starred in several independent short and feature films.[1] She is also recognized for her supporting role in Netflix original series Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha (2021), Coupang play original Anna (2022), and drama Summer Strike (2022).

Early life and education

During her childhood, Park watched a theater performance that sparked a vague curiosity about acting. Her serious interest in acting developed in middle school, where, influenced by a teacher, she enrolled in a theater class. She attended for only one semester before transferring schools mid-year. In high school, Park's passion for acting resurfaced, and she persuaded her parents to support her dream.[2] To further her aspirations, she studied in the Film Department of Konkuk University College of Arts and Design.[1]

Career

Debut and career in independent film

Park embarked on her acting career with the short film Winter Preparation (2013), portraying the titular character Jae-in. Directed by Lee Yoon-hyeong, the film premiered at the 12th Mise-en-scène Short Film Festival and was also screened at the 14th Daegu Short Film Festival, marking Park's first two film festival attendances. In the same year, Park starred in the short film Shorts, which screened at the 2013 Seoul Independent Film Festival.[3]

In 2015, another short film featuring Park, And Autumn Has Come, was invited to the Mise-en-scène Short Film Festival and the Jeonbuk Independent Film Festival.[3] The following year, her short film The Road Not Taken, also known as Galae(2016), screened at the Seoul International Women's Film Festival and received an invitation to the Seoul International Youth Film Festival.[4]

Park Ye-young is an enigmatic actress. In films, Park often gazes at her co-stars from peculiar angles, at unexpected moments, and with a timing that is difficult to explain. As cinema is an art of perspectives, each time she does so, it evokes a sensation that the entire screen is tilting. It's a kind of gravitational force. That's the only way to describe it. It's because Park Ye-young alone has the ability to create such a feeling. At first, I thought it was a directorial choice, but as I observed this power consistently manifesting across films by different directors, I found it to be uncanny. I yearned to witness this power more frequently. Perhaps this actress will only grow stronger with time.

— Jeong Seong-il, director and film critic, Cine21[3]

In 2017, Park was chosen as the featured actress for the "10th FILM DABIN Project: Actress Park Ye-young." The project showcased three of her independent films: And Autumn Has Come, My Chemical Love, and Shall We Go. Two discussion events with Park were also held, moderated by Director Hyung Seul-woo, with panel members including Directors Choi Jeong-ho and Lee Yu-ri, and Moon In-su. These events took place on Saturday, November 11, at Seoul Theater 8, 13, Jongno District, Seoul, and Saturday, November 18, at Pause Cinema, Chuncheon-si, Gangwon Province.[5]

Television debut and recent projects

In 2019, Park made her television debut with a minor role as a nurse in Yoo Je-won's drama series Abyss. A year later, she appeared as Nurse Heo Min-young in episodes 22 and 23 of the drama series Soul Mechanic.[6][7] In 2021, Park portrayed Lee Sung-sil in episode 6 of Sell Your Haunted House.[8] That same year, she reunited with director Yoo Je-won in her first supporting role as variety show writer Wang Ji-won in the drama series Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha. In the drama, Wang Ji-won was also a love interest of Ji PD, a character played by Lee Sang-yi.[9] Furthermore, Park made brief cameo appearances in the film Emergency Declaration and drama series Reflection of You. She then appeared in episodes 1, 2, and 4 of Inspector Koo, portraying Yoon Jae-young.[10]

Moving on to 2022, Park starred alongside Bae Suzy in Coupang Play original series Anna, playing Anna's best friend Ji-won. Her performance garnered critical acclaim and earned her the New Actress Award for Series at the 2023 Director's Cut Awards.[11] Additionally, in 2022, Park returned to independent film with the titular role in Jung Hae-il's Joo-young in Wonderland. The film screened at The 16th Evergreen Digilog World Film Festival, where director Jung Hae-il received the Special Award.[12] Park was affiliated with artist management Dongyi Company from July 2022.[8] However, in March 2023, Park signed with C-JeS Entertainment.[13]
