Shortly after this announcement, Park jumped right into her ambassadorial duties, attending the prestigious "Gucci Ancora" fashion show in Milan, Italy, on the 22nd of the previous month.

Her impeccable acting skills garnered immense recognition, notably through her performances in JTBC's 'Rain or Shine,' 'The Third Charm,' tvN's 'Romance Is a Bonus Book,' and SBS's 'The Nokdu Flower'. In 2020, she offered a standout performance as Nam Joo Ri, a mental hospital nurse with 7 years of experience, in the tvN drama 'It's Okay to Not Be Okay.'

Presently, Gyu Young is making arrangements to engage with international audiences as she’s been cast in Netflix's much-anticipated sequel, 'Squid Game 2.' Joining an extraordinary cast line-up that includes well-acclaimed actors like Lee Jung Jae, Lee Byung Hun, Park Sung Hoon, Lee Jin Wook, Yang Dong Geun, and Choi Seung Hyun (TOP), Gyu Young is set to leave her mark on this global sensation.
