Park’s agency Awesome ENT chose not to comment when asked for more details, as per NME. If the reports are true, it would add to the Asian representation we need in Hollywood films. He would also be the third South Korean actor to be part of the MCU, following Ma Dong Seok in The Eternals and Claudia Kim in Avengers: Age of Ultron.
The actor is also widely known for starring in different K-drama series that include Itaewon Class, What’s Wrong With Secretary Kim, Kill Me, and Heal Me. If you didn’t spot him, he actually made a cameo in the Oscar-winning film Parasite in 2019.
The Marvels is slated to release in the United States on November 11, 2022.
