Biography
Yoo Yeon-seok, stage name for actor Ahn Yeon-seok, made his acting debut in 2003 with a minor role in Oldboy, then stepped back to reset. He resumed his career in 2008 and became a fixture in prestige Korean television, landing roles in Reply 1994 (2013), the medical drama Dr. Romantic (2016), and the historical series Mr. Sunshine (2018). His film work spans indie arthouse—Architecture 101 (2012), A Werewolf Boy (2012)—and socially conscious thrillers like Whistle Blower (2014) and Love, Lies (2016). In the 2020s, he shifted toward streaming platforms, anchoring Hospital Playlist (2020–2021) and the 2024 thriller When the Phone Rings, with Phantom Lawyer forthcoming in 2026. Yoo is a South Korean male actor. As an Aries born April 11, 1984, he carries the sign's trademark intensity and leadership instinct [F1, birth].
