Shin Seul-ki (Korean: 신슬기) is a South Korean actress. She participated in the South Korean reality television series Single's Inferno in 2022 and made her acting debut in the web drama Pyramid Game in 2024.

Early life and education

[edit]

Her grandfather, Shin Seong-sik, is a painter and one of the founding members of the South Korean painting collective Mukrimhoe.[1]

She attended Yewon School and Seoul Arts High School. In 2023, Seul-ki graduated from Seoul National University with a degree in music, majoring in piano.[2][3][4]

Career

[edit]

In 2020, Shin Seul-ki was crowned as the 90th Miss Chunhyang, the reputable traditional Korean beauty pageant in Namwon, North Jeolla Province. With her prize money, she donated 20,000 masks to the Namwon flood victims.[5]

In 2021, she appeared in a music video for Kim Jae-hwan's song "Unforgettable".[6]

In 2022, she joined the second season of Netflix's reality dating show Single's Inferno.[7]

On April 17, 2023, Big Smile Entertainment announced that Seulki has signed an exclusive contract with the talent agency.[8] In June 2023, Seulki was cast in the TVING Original drama Pyramid Game in the role of Seo Do-Ah (서도아), the Class 5-2 president and game moderator.[9]

On February 29, 2024, Seulki made her acting career in TVING's psychological thriller web drama Pyramid Game. She received praise from the media for her gripping and accurate character portrayal and synchronization of the character Seo Do-Ah, and clear vocalization.[10][11][12][13] At the production press conference, Seulki shared that, during audition, she realized she may have been cast for the role of Do-Ah when the director asked her to try on a pair of glasses. She credited her announcer internship experience to aiding her acting vocalization skills.[14]

In May 2024, on the MBC talk show Radio Star, Seulki's first mainstream media interview appearance, she shared that her father did not know she had joined Single's Inferno until he saw the show's promotional billboard. She also said that prior to Singles Inferno 2, she had received offers to join other dating programs, but ultimately committed to Singles Inferno because the filming period fit with her academic school schedule.[15]

On August 28, 2024, SBS and Big Smile Entertainment announced that Seulki will be joining the upcoming SBS historical fantasy romantic comedy production, "Return to the Palace" ( "귀궁") in the role of Choi In-Sun (최인선). The drama is scheduled to premiere in the early spring 2025.[16]
