Actor Park Seong-hoon has once again set a new defining character through the Netflix series 'Squid Game' Season 3, following his role in 'The Glory'.
On June 27, the Netflix series 'Squid Game' Season 3 (written and directed by Hwang Dong-hyuk / produced by First Man Studio) was released, where Park Seong-hoon played the role of 'Hyun-joo', who protects the weak even on the brink of life and death, delivering a profound resonance. Portraying a character who does not lose their humanity even in a game dominated by cruel rules, 'Hyun-joo' has established himself as an icon of Season 3 and one of the most impressive characters.
The character played by Park Seong-hoon, Hyun-joo, was someone who chose solidarity and responsibility even in extreme situations. In the process of attempting to escape with Geum-ja (played by Kang Ae-sim) and Jun-hee (Jo Yuri), who is about to give birth, he steadfastly supported his comrades in the face of crisis. Hyun-joo defended Geum-ja and Jun-hee against enemies, stood by Jun-hee as she approached childbirth, and made significant choices at every moment. Particularly, Hyun-joo's face lit up with a bright smile upon finding the exit, giving hope to everyone, but ultimately stopped in front of the escape route, holding onto his responsibilities while protecting those more precious than himself.
He richly portrayed the character's nuances, from action scenes where he threw himself to block enemies to quiet scenes where emotions built up silently. Park Seong-hoon's detailed performance brought Hyun-joo to life as not just a simple hero but as a 'living character', prompting both domestic and international viewers to praise him, saying, 'Park Seong-hoon's acting made Hyun-joo feel like a real living person, not fiction'; 'The character exuded both strength and warmth'; and 'It felt even more poignant because it was Hyun-joo until the very last moment.'
Following Jeon Jae-jun from 'The Glory' and Yoon Eun-sung from 'Queen of Tears', along with the strong yet deeply narrative Hyun-joo in 'Squid Game' Seasons 2 and 3, Park Seong-hoon has delicately unraveled the inner workings of characters in each work, reaching another pinnacle in his filmography.
Meanwhile, the Netflix series 'Squid Game' Season 3, in which Park Seong-hoon appeared, is currently streaming amid a hot response both domestically and internationally.
