Park In-je

Park In-je (; born May 21, 1973) is a South Korean film director, television director and screenwriter. He directed the Netflix original series Kingdom Season 2 and the Disney+ original Moving (2023).

Education Park is a graduate from the Korea National University of Arts.

Career In 2001, Park made his debut as a director and screenwriter with the short film Happy Death. Two years later, in 2003, he directed and wrote the screenplay for another short film titled The End of the Road which later won the grand prize at the fourth Mise-en-scène Short Film Festival.

While working on a story about a journalist, Park discovered the true story about a soldier named Yun Seok-yang, an army soldier serving in the Defense Security Command of Korea's Armed Forces. In 1990, Yun left his military base and took a floppy disk with a secret list of important people which included the names of former presidents and religious leaders; previously it had been subject to investigations by the Defense Security Command. Yun decided to reveal the contents of the disk at a press conference, believing it was the right thing to do. This story inspired Park to make a movie, called Moby Dick, about a journalist trying to uncover a secret organization that controls the government.

Park co-directed the second season of Kim Eun-hee's show Kingdom with Kim Seong-hun; it aired in 2020. In February 2021, it was reported that the agreement between the co-producers JTBC and Next Entertainment World had been canceled. As a result, Park In-je replaced Director Mo Wan-il as the director of the Disney+ Original Moving.
