'''Song Kang-ho''' (b. January 17, 1967 in Busan, South Korea) is a versatile and prolific South Korean actor. He's notably played the leading man in some of the most celebrated and recognized movies in South Korea, and is one of the highest-profile actors in the ROK film industry.

Originally a theater actor, he took a small role in the film "The Day a Pig Fell in the Well'' and found that three days of work on a movie paid better than three months on a play. This made him reconsider his career path and he made shift that would turn out to be historic.

He soon found recognition by getting cast in ''Film/{{Shiri}}'', Korea's first true domestic blockbuster, and two Creator/ParkChanWook films, ''JSA: Joint Security Area'' and ''Film/SympathyForMrVengeance''. He quickly rose to even greater fame by starring in Creator/BongJoonHo's ''Film/MemoriesOfMurder'' and becoming part of Bong's ProductionPosse.

He's now recognised as one of the greatest actors in Korea and his filmography is filled with projects that have gained global acclaim and[=/=]or set domestic box-office records, such as ''Film/Parasite2019'', the first ever South Korean movie to win any Oscar awards, including Best Picture.

He never had any formal training, only in social theatre groups.
