Personal life

Park studied filmmaking at the Seoul Institute of the Arts after his military service.

However, he decided to give acting a try as he enjoyed playing bit roles in the movies of his classmates.[1]

After a short appearance in his first mainstream film Veteran (2015), he had supporting roles in A Violent Prosecutor (2016) and Vanishing Time: A Boy Who Returned (2016).[1]

He had his first lead role in The Boys Who Cried Wolf (2016) which won Best Actor at the 4th Wildflower Film Awards in 2017. He also won Actor of the Year Award at the 22nd Busan International Film Festival for the indie film Hit the Night (2017) by director Jeong Ga-young.
