Seo Hyun-woo (born 20 November 1983) is a South Korean actor who began his career on stage and made his debut in a musical in 2010. In the same year, he won an acting award at The 9th Off Daehakro Festival.
Seo faced a period of obscurity that lasted for five years following his graduation. Seo naturally turned his attention to Daehakro plays and independent films. He starred as the main lead in Hyung Seul-woo's film Allergy (2015) that received the grand prize at the Fukuoka Independent Film Festival. He also starred in Shin Dong-young's short film Hatred, which received an official invitation to the 70th Cannes Film Festival.
He is widely recognized for his portrayal of reporter Kim Moo-jin in the 2020 drama Flower of Evil.[3][4] In 2022, Seo played the role of Sa Cheol-seong in Park Chan-wook's film Decision to Leave. His performance earned him the New Actor Award at the 21st Director's Cut Awards.
