Park Jin-young (born September 22, 1994), referred to as Jinyoung, is a South Korean singer, songwriter, actor, dancer, choreographer[1][2] and a member of the boy band Got7 and duo JJ Project.[3] He made his acting debut in the drama Dream High 2 (2012) followed by supporting roles in When a Man Falls in Love (2013), This is My Love (2015) and Legend of the Blue Sea (2016-2017). He made his film debut in the independent film A Stray Goat (2016).

Due to his shared name with his agency's founder, Park originally debuted with the stage name Jr.,[1] but he later changed the spelling to Junior due to widespread confusion about the correct pronunciation of his name.[3] On August 16, 2016, Park announced that he would simply go by his given name.[4]

In 2011, Jinyoung was cast in the role of Jung Ui-bong in the television drama Dream High 2.[5] The drama began airing on January 30, 2012 on KBS.[6] On February 29, Park released the song "We Are The B" for the drama's soundtrack, along with Jinwoon, Kang So-ra and Kim Ji-soo.[7]

In 2016, Jinyoung was cast as the male lead in the independent film A Stray Goat, directed by Cho Jae-min. The film follows a high school student, played by Jinyoung, who moves to the town of Goseong where he meets a girl, who is an outcast because of rumors and suspicions about her father.[19][20] The movie had its world premiere at the Jeonju International Film Festival and was one of the three films made for the Jeonju Cinema Project.[19] In September 2016, Jinyoung was cast for a supporting role in the drama The Legend of the Blue Sea, where he portrayed the teenage version of Lee Min-ho's character, the protagonist of the series.[21]
