Ahn Hyo Seop (also known as Paul Ahn) is a Canadian actor based in South Korea under Starhaus Entertainment. He was born in Seoul, South Korea. When he was seven years old, his family emigrated to Toronto, Canada. He later moved back to South Korea when he was 17, while his family stayed in Canada. He graduated from Kookmin University, in the Department of International Business. He plays the piano and violin.  After moving back to South Korea, Ahn was scouted by JYP Entertainment and became a trainee. He was given an opportunity to debut as a member of the K-pop boy band GOT7. However, he ultimately turned down the offer to pursue other endeavors. He was later put into the project group “101 (One O One)”, which released digital singles "Love You" in October 2015, followed by "Stunning" in November 2015.  Ahn made his acting debut in the MBC drama, Splash Splash Love. He won his Rookie award in 2017 for his role in the drama 'My Father is Strange'. He received Excellence Award, Actor in a Miniseries Genre/Fantasy Drama, and won the Best Couple Award with Kim Yoo-Jung at the 2021 SBS Drama Awards for his drama 'Lovers of the Red Sky'.  On May 2, 2022 he announced a new start with his agency The present co. The new agency has been jointly established by Ahn Hyo Seop and his longtime manager who worked with the actor from before his debut.  (Source: Wikipedia)

The Search Form


About the Movie Section

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).

Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.

Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)

While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:

  • I added "runners up" to Top 10 lists, treating them as ties where applicable and numbering them accordingly at the bottom of each list.
  • Regarding those polls wherein "franchise" movies were submitted as one project until BFI's policy changed to regard them separately, I treated them as ties and renumbered the affected lists accordingly (e.g. the Godfather films).

Regarding profile removals and data corrections:

  • If you would like your profile removed from this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's gone from their site, it should soon be gone from this site.
  • If you would like to correct movie data on this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's corrected on their site, it should soon be corrected on this site.
  • For additional corrections and profile removals, please e-mail The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).

Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.

Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
