PARK BO GUM

PARK BO GUM is recognizably the actor whom we can depend on for good performance. He has appeared in numerous films and dramas and built a unique filmography, which includes the film ‘Runway Cop’ (2012), and drama ‘Hero’ (2012), ‘Bridal Mask’ (2012), ‘Wonderful Mama’ (2013), ‘Wonderful Days’ (2014), and ‘Naeil’s Cantabile’ (2014). He has also polished his artistry with the films ‘A Hard Day’ (2014) and ‘The Admiral: Roaring Currents’ (2014), and the drama ‘Hello Monster’ (2015). We can also see his talents in other areas, such as his stint as an MC for ‘Music Bank’ (2015).

Drama ‘Reply 1988’ (2015) turned PARK BO GUM into a veritable rising star, helping him to leap from being a newcomer to becoming one of the most sought-after actors. His touching sensibility permeates throughout his portrayal of ‘Choi Taek,’ a genius go player with a warm, old-fashioned heart. Many of his scenes from the show were later dubbed ‘PARK BO GUM golden scenes,’ which kept adding to the sensation that he became.

Since then, he has played many memorable ‘roles of a lifetime.’ He was under the spotlight for portraying a smart and daring crown prince named ‘Lee Yeong’ in ‘Love in the Moonlight’ (2016). This show was also how viewers worldwide discovered Park and turned him into a global star.

Park again expands his acting spectrum in the film ‘Seo Bok’ (2021). His emotional portrayal of ‘Seo Bok,’ an immortal clone human, is meticulous and broadens his range once again.

There is depth and intensity to Park’s acting, and the acting career he has built film-by-film has been illustrious and colorful. There is a reason why he can slip into any role and make them convincing. He has captured the audience with a fresh face in each of his works, and he has become an actor we can rely on to surprise us with a new layer of depth and breadth every time.With his recent roles in upcoming films ‘Wonderland’ (upcoming release) and ‘You Have Done Well’ (TBD), he challenged himself with new characters, genres, and settings and made the roles completely his own. The horizon keeps on expanding for actor PARK BO GUM.
