Ju Jin Mo

Profile & Portfolio

Ju Jin Mo (Park Jin Tae) was born in Seoul, South Korea on August 11, 1975. He plays guitar and sings and studies Taekwondo, and I'm sure there is much more to this man, but details in English are sadly lacking. One thing for sure, Ju Jin Mo is a consummate actor. He is model perfect, photogenic and charismatic; he personifies good looking in any language.

My introduction to Ju Jin Mo was the film, Musa The Warrior. I was most impressed with his portrayal of the the General (Changgun), even though the edited Hong Kong version left many of his important character development scenes on the cutting room floor.

On first viewing the film I thought the General had a lot of issues. He was terribly conflicted and showed a lack of military expertise for leading his people to destruction, but my opinion changed on viewing the more comprehensive Korean R3 DVD. Ju Jin Mo portrayed the general as a very complex character and his importance to the story is more fully realized in the original Korean version.

Musa lead me to other Ju Jin Mo movies. Happy End, what can I say, made a believer out of me. His credits include movies, tv dramas, commercials, music videos and stage. In 2009 he was honored with a best actor award for his role in A Frozen Flower.
