Park Hae-il joins hands with K-pop platform Makestar for a new start
Actor Park Hae-il announced a new start with Makestar.

Makestar announced on the 13th, “We have signed an exclusive contract with Park Hae-il, who has an unrivaled aura,” and added, “We will actively support him through optimized professional management befitting a top actor.”

Park Hae-il, whose exclusive contract with SWMP ended in December last year, has settled in at Makestar and is starting his full-fledged activities.

Park Hae-il is loved as a top-class actor, both in name and reality. In particular, last year left such a meaningful mark on the film industry that it was called ‘the year of Park Hae-il.’ 'Decision to Break Up' and 'Hansan: Appearance of the Dragon' led to success at the box office and critics, and swept the Best Actor awards at various movie awards ceremonies, ushering in a golden era again.

Previously, he has delivered excellent acting regardless of era and genre, such as 'Memories of Murder', 'Scent of Chrysanthemum', 'Purpose of Love', 'Monster', 'Moss', 'Eungyo', 'Princess Deokhye', and 'Namhansanseong'. By expressing the complex and subtle emotions of the characters in a three-dimensional way, they breathed life into the characters.

After shaking up the K-pop market as a global entertainment platform, Makestar is determined to expand its actor management business in earnest. The company plans to expand its power by forming a dream team of key personnel from large entertainment companies. Attention is focused on the fact that Park Hae-il's joining is the signal.
