Park Ye-young (Korean박예영; 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 years and education

[edit]

During her childhood, Park had the opportunity to watch a theater performance, sparking a vague curiosity about acting. However, it wasn't until middle school that she developed a serious interest in acting. Influenced by a teacher, Park decided to enroll in a theater class. She only attended for one semester because She had to transfer schools in the middle of the academic year. It was in high school when Park's passion for acting resurfaced, and she made efforts to persuade her parents to support her pursuit of this dream.[2] To further her aspirations, she enrolled in and studied at the Film Department of Konkuk University College of Arts and Design.[1]

Career

[edit]

Debut and career in independent film

[edit]

Park embarked on her acting career with the short film Winter Preparation (2013), where she portrayed 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. These experiences marked Park's first and second forays into attending film festivals. In the same year, Park starred in the short film "Shorts," which was screened at the 2013 Seoul Independent Film Festival.[3]

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

A year later, her short film The Road not Taken also known as Galae (2016) was screened in Seoul International Women's Film Festival and invited to 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."
