O Yeong-Su
First Korean Actor to Win a Golden Globe; Best Known for "Squid Game"
O Yeong-su is a South Korean actor. He began acting in theatre in 1967, and has, according to himself, appeared in over 200 productions. He later began acting in film and television, often portraying monks due to his experience with Buddhist plays. In 2021, he portrayed Oh Il-nam in the Netflix survival drama "Squid Game," which gave rise to his worldwide popularity and won himself a Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor in a Series, Miniseries or Television Film. His triumph marks the first time a Korean TV drama or actor has been nominated and won a Golden Globe.
In November 2021, he narrated an episode of the documentary program "Documentary Three Days." On the first day of the 2021 Korean Series, O threw the first pitch.
