Park Shin-yang (Korean: 박신양; born November 1, 1968) is a South Korean actor and painter. He is known for starring in the films The Letter (1997), A Promise (1998), Hi! Dharma! (2001), The Big Swindle (2004), and Man on the Edge (2013), as well as the television series Lovers in Paris (2004), War of Money (2007), Painter of the Wind (2008), Sign (2011), and My Lawyer, Mr. Jo (2016). His performance in War of Money earned him the Best Actor – Television award at the 44th Baeksang Arts Awards.

Career

A graduate of Dongguk University and the Shevkin Theater School in Russia, Park debuted in the Buddhist film Yuri in 1996.[2][3] He became famous after appearing in the hit melodramas The Letter (1997) and A Promise (1998). Park earned several Best Actor prizes for his role in A Promise.

In the early 2000s, Park continued to appear in major films such as the gangster comedy Hi! Dharma![4] as well as heist thriller The Big Swindle.[5][6]

In 2004, he gained wide recognition as one of South Korea's lead actors with the television series Lovers in Paris.[7][8] With an average viewership rating of 40+% and a peak of 56.3%, the series became one of the highest rated Korean dramas of all time.[9] Park was recognized for his performance, winning the Grand Prize (Daesang) with his costar Kim Jung-eun at the SBS Drama Awards. The drama sparked many trends and parodies with entertainers mimicking Park’s famous lines "Let’s go, baby!" and "Why can't you say it? Why can't you say that this is my man, that this is the man I love?" in variety shows.[10]

He also starred in the television drama War of Money (2007), a huge ratings hit, and earned the Grand Prize for a second time at the SBS Drama Awards.[11][12] The series was extended for four episodes, with the producers agreeing to pay Park a fee of ₩170 million per episode. However, they later reneged on the deal, alleging that Park tried to capitalize on the drama's high popularity by asking for too much money. Park took legal action, and in November 2009, he won the lawsuit.[13][14] Consequently, the Corea Drama Production Association (CODA) banned Park from appearing in any dramas produced by members of the association for an indefinite period.[15][16]

During the lawsuit, Park starred in the critically acclaimed historical drama Painter of the Wind (2008) alongside Moon Geun-young.[17]

The ban was lifted in 2011, after which Park returned to TV after a three-year absence.[18] He appeared the medical drama Sign (2011).[19]

In early 2013, Park starred in the comedy film Man on the Edge, a box office hit.[20]

After a five-year hiatus, Park made his TV comeback in 2016 with the KBS2 legal drama My Lawyer, Mr. Jo.[21] In 2019, he reprised his role in the drama's second season.[22]

Personal life

Park married Baek Hae-jin in 2002. They have a daughter, Park Seung-chae.

In 2004, the Museum of Tolstoi appointed Park as ambassador in South Korea.[23]

Park applied for a Master's degree program in Fine Arts and Western Painting at Andong University.[24]
