JUNG Yu-mi made a sensational debut in <Family Ties>, a unique story about a family directed by KIM Tae-yong. Her credits include leading or supporting roles in various films such as <Shim’s Family>, HONG Sang-soo’s <Like You Know It All>, a sketch of the ordinary everyday life in a small town, the cult film <Chaw>, a story about a wild bore slaughtering men, and <Café Noir>, a social drama with a three-hour running time, as well as traditional melodramas such as <My Dear Desperado> and <Come, Closer>. JUNG is one of the most sought-after starlets for quality films for which she has portrayed the ordinary lives of ordinary people in the ways that are not so ordinary. <Silenced>, a film based on an actual event that disclosed sexual abuses on handicapped children, drew almost 5 million spectators and became the highest grossing film in her career. 2012 saw her team up with HONG Sang-soo once again for <In Another Country>. A year later, she teamed up with the auteur again for <Our Sunhi>. Also in 2013, she returned to the commercial realm in the drama <Tough as Iron>. JUNG and her <Tough as Iron> co-star YOO Ah-in also performed voice duties on the 2014 animation <The Satellite Girl and Milk Cow>. Later that year she appeared as a woman searching for her younger sister, who has been taken by a killer into Seoul’s sewer system, in the horror-thriller <Manhole>. A year later she took part in the action zombie thriller <TRAIN TO BUSAN>, the live action debut of animation director YEON Sang-ho.
