Park Bo-young, masterpiece acting that beat Park Bo-young..Psychiatric ward → Uncharted Seoul's Career



Actor Park Bo-young made another life story.

Park Bo-young plays Yoo Mi-ji and Yoo Mi-rae, who live as if she is enduring each day in tvN's Saturday-Sunday drama "Unknown Seoul" (directed by Lee Kang-nyeon, directed by Park Shin-woo), and she plays Yoo Mi-rae, who permeates the system by erasing herself, showing her acting skills that go beyond simple two roles and elaborately weave the bonds of different lives.

In the last broadcast, the unknown was depicted facing the closing door in front of Rosa's restaurant. In a situation where the opportunity he tried to grab was getting far from his eyes, Park Bo-young conveyed the character's inner feelings with deep eyes and subtle facial expressions. The inner wave, which was contained in 'stopped gaze' with the emotion restrained, rather left a greater resonance in silence.




Then, when Lee Ho-su (Park Jin-young) was shaken after leaving the company, Miji turned to him and said, `I just quit a company. It's all right," he said, offering a calm comfort. In this scene, Park Bo-young realized a silent affection that only those who have experienced isolation and wounds can have by adding their own texture to the unique way of conveying through actions rather than words. In particular, the part where the lake is taught knitting on the park bench depicts a warm breath that slowly permeates the opponent's closed mind, excluding unnecessary exaggerations.

In addition, the future, which has always been faithful to the roles of daughters and employees, lost its focus between work and family, facing its own desires and choices. Park Bo-young expressed the character's inner change with extremely restrained acting and convincingly built up the process of gradually reclaiming his "own name" away from the familiar framework. Park Bo-young's gaze and speech acted as a driving force for even small decisions to drive the story amid the trend of quietly cracking the future of living under the expectations of others.

Even small movements, such as short eye contact and hesitation at the door, are organically linked to the psychological flow of the character, proving once again the modifier 'emotional master'.

In addition, Park Bo-young densely built the trajectory of the character who collapses at the end of the crack and rises again. Park Bo-young's performance, which embodied memories, trauma, expectations and fears, touched the viewer's heart, while her face lived instead of the sister's time stopped in front of the closed door.

As such, Park Bo-young plays the role of a compass that presents the direction of immersion by weaving completely different patterns of life in detail through the conflicting characters of the unknown and the future. His performance, which adds depth without stimulation, holds the play's emotions firmly and forms the center.

Park Bo-young, who is writing another masterpiece through 'Unknown Seoul'. His performance, which shows the solitude hidden behind the laughter and the unshakable toughness even in the collapse, hits the hearts of viewers every time and further amplifies expectations for future developments.
