Hwang Jung-min

Hwang Jung-min

Hwang Jung-Min is one of the highest-grossing movie stars in South Korea, starring in many iconic box office hits such as ODE TO MY FATHER (2014), VETERAN (2015), THE WAILING (2016) to name a few, and is the third actor in Korea to become a member of the "100 million Viewer Club" in Korea, along with Song Kang-ho from PARASITE. Hwang started his career in musical theatre, making his acting debut in LINE 1 in 1995. In 2001, Hwang landed his first acting role in a feature film after successfully auditioning for the role of Kang-su in WAIKIKI BROTHERS. Since that time Hwang has frequently displayed his level of depth as an actor by performing in a wide range of roles: a scene-stealing mob boss in NEW WORLD, where his performance was singled out by The New York Times, an ordinary hardworking man in ODE TO MY FATHER ( the second highest-grossing film in Korean cinema history), and an unforgettable performance as a shaman in THE WAILING, a globally acclaimed horror film.
