Park Bo-young (박보영) is a South Korean actress. Born on February 12, 1990, she first debuted with a supporting role in the television series Secret Campus (2006) and continued playing minor roles in television until her breakout role as a teenaged single mother reconnecting with her celebrity father in the comedy Scandal Makers (2008). In 2010, she took a short hiatus after being involved in legal disputes with her then-management agency and a film production company.  The fantasy romance A Werewolf Boy (2012) marked Park's return to the spotlight, becoming one of the most successful Korean melodramas of all time. In 2015, she made her comeback to television, with dual roles in supernatural romance Oh My Ghost, making Park one of the highest paid actresses on television. Other notable works include one of the highest-rated Korean cable dramas of all time, Strong Woman Do Bong Soon (2017), and romantic film On Your Wedding Day (2018), which became the most watched romance film in South Korea the year it was released.  In 2023, Park starred in the disaster thriller Concrete Utopia, South Korea's official international feature submission for the 96th Academy Awards, and the Netflix Original series Daily Dose of Sunshine.

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.
