Rising star in every hit drama
Picture this: You're binge-watching the latest K-dramas, and the same face keeps popping up - that's
Park Yun-ho
owning the screen this year. From 'Study Group' to 'Wise Resident Life', 'Unknown Seoul', and thrilling 'Trigger', this two-year newbie is everywhere. Netizens are buzzing, "This guy's in every show I'm watching!" With his sharp looks and intense energy, he's making waves in roles big and small, from villains to survivors. Park shares it's all about timing. "I don't feel it yet," he chuckles. "Auditions clicked, and suddenly my face is sticking around. It's nice to make an impression."
Switching vibes in school uniforms
Park's got range - think fierce bully in 'Study Group' as Lee Hyun-woo, all rebellious glares. Then in 'Trigger', he's the vulnerable Park Kyu-jin, battling school violence with a fragile edge. Same high school look, but worlds apart. He nailed it through five auditions, syncing up to 100% with director feedback. According to an interview with Ilgan Sports, focusing on Kyu-jin's mom bond added depth. "We weighted that relationship to make his choices feel real," Park explains. For the gun scenes, he imagined the chaos vividly. "Picturing the horror helped capture those split-second thoughts."
Lessons from the set pros
'Trigger' was Park's biggest challenge, teaming with Kim Nam-gil and Kim Young-kwang. "Huge role, huge nerves," he admits. But seniors guided him - like Kim Nam-gil's eye-contact tip that sparked real tears in a tense standoff. A quick glance with Kim Young-kwang got tweaked for subtle tension. Park stuck around set on breaks, soaking it all in. "Watching everyone work was the best lesson," he says.
Steady dreams for the long haul
Rejections were part of the journey, but Park's detail obsession - like how a character hits an elevator button - sets him apart. This year turned stress into fun. "Acting's a puzzle, each role a new thrill." No grand plans, just consistency. "I want to keep showing up steadily," he says. A newcomer award? "That'd be sweet."
