Go Youn-jung

Go Youn-jung (고윤정) is a South Korean actress and model born April 22, 1996 in Seoul. A graduate of Seoul Women's University with a degree in contemporary art, she also trained in ballet and figure skating, and that physical discipline feeds directly into her performance precision. She transitioned from modeling to acting after appearing on the cover of University Tomorrow magazine and receiving casting offers across the industry. She debuted in He Is Psychometric (2019) and built early visibility through supporting roles in the Netflix productions Sweet Home (2020) and Law School (2021). The lead role in Alchemy of Souls Part 2 (2022) was the breakthrough: she stepped in as the series' new female lead and earned widespread critical attention. Her 2023 run was exceptional: the Disney+ action series Moving and the dark fantasy film The Hunt delivered accolades and a surge in profile that made her one of Korea's most bankable young actresses. In 2025, she starred in tvN's Resident Playbook, opposite Wi Ha-joon, and in 2026 joined Netflix romantic drama Can This Love Be Translated? alongside Kim Seon-ho. Her commercial portfolio includes campaigns for Nike, Armani, SK Telecom, and Boucheron.
