Among the emergence of brothers·sisters actors one after another in the entertainment industry, Hallyu star Park Yoochun(26) and talent Chae Sira(44) revealed their younger siblings who had followed in their footsteps in acting.
K-Pop star JYJ member Park Yoochun, who is currently acting as the male lead in MBC drama ‘I Miss You’, recently with an interview with Yonhap News praised his brother saying that “In the past, (as the eldest) it feels like I had to support the family alone but now, my brother is gradually growing up and I can even have certain expectations from him”.
His brother Park Yoohwan(21) debuted as an actor last year February with MBC weekend drama ‘Shining’ before moving on to MBC historical drama ‘Gyebaek’ and then SBS ‘Thousand Days’ Promise’ thus letting known his face and name by making an appearance in 3 series of dramas one after another. In particular, his role as SooAe’s younger brother in ‘Thousand Days Promise’ had attracted attention due to his earnest tearful acting.
This year, he was chosen to be the main lead for Channel A ‘K-Pop Strongest Survival’ followed by MBC daily drama ‘Can’t Live without You’ in which he appeared for 6 months.
Park Yoochun said “It seems that Yoohwan is doing well in acting” and “Because he did a daily drama and weekend drama, he had been shooting for a longer period than me” and laughed after saying that.
He further said “Especially recently, he did a drama with 110 episodes without any break which is really praise-worthy” and “Since the two of us are actors, it feels good and comfortable that we can understand each other better”.
Park Yoohwan was the exemplary case of ‘following the footsteps of the elder brother to acting’. For him, who had just returned to Korea 6 years ago after following his brother and mother to live in America, before he had set his eyes on acting, he did not have any dreams and was just wondering around.
Since then, through his elder brother, he found interest in acting and attended an acting class where he studied for a year before going for his first audition where he was accepted right away and got to make an appearance in ‘Shining’.
“Even if it was just a few years ago, I would never had imagined that Yoohwan and I would become actors and act alongside each other. I am so proud that my younger brother is doing very well.” said Yoochun.

Park brothers are so talented, and good looking! What a great brotherly love!
Park brothers…. Love them both…..
Park Brother. Can i say that they have ‘perfect gen’ among idols ?? i mean, like Yuchun-Yuhwan then Dara-Thunder and also Jessica-Krystal. How can ?? Ha-ha
PARK bros are one of the best siblings i know!
Our Park Bros really work hard..Really proud of them..Hope they can act together soon ^__________^
that would be epic.
I am watching “can’t live without’ everyday in MBC … Oh i am falling in love with Park Yoohwan …. He is awesome …. Even though I love Yoochun, I think Yoohwan acting is just awesome … He always make me cry …. I am so proud to be fans of both Park brothers …. Love them all my heart
I was watching it too in dramastyle without subs but I had to stop because the site is so virus-prone. Do you know anywhere else I can watch the show?
@loveunchanged …. Sorry dear I don’t know …. I am watching thru my cable .. They have MBC free … I feel lucky
Oh ok. I just found another site (no subs either) so I’ll use that.
Yoohwan is really good at acting. Really really good! He’s very convincing in his roles.
Park Yoohwan is by any stretch a force to be reckoned with in the future. He is wonderful to look at, a fine emerging actor, he is by all means one to watch. Yuchun is exactly right. Yoohwan has now become an actor to be taken seriously on his own merits.
I would love to see the two of them together in a drama. It would be very interesting to see them cast as brothers. I envision something where they would have conflict and have to deal with each other over this conflict.
Chunnie is really a good brother and YooHwan is so lucky to have him. He is truly a great role model to all youngsters who want to start their career as singers or actors. Time to check-out YooHwan’s dramas as well. Hope this year end, he will get an award. Fighting our Park boys!!
