Steven Yeun (/jʌn/; born December 21, 1983), born as Yeun Sang-yeop (Template:Lang-ko), is a South Korean-American actor. Yeun initially rose to prominence for his roles as Glenn Rhee in the television series The Walking Dead (2010–2016) and Ben in the film Burning (2018). The latter earned him critical acclaim and several accolades. He also starred in and executive produced Minari (2020), earning him critical acclaim and a nomination for the Academy Award for Best Actor, becoming the first Asian American actor to receive this honor.[1] He also became the first Asian-American actor to be nominated at the Screen Actors Guild for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Leading Role.[2]

Yeun has also appeared in the films Okja (2017), Mayhem (2017), Sorry to Bother You (2018), The Humans (2021) and Nope (2022), and has voiced main characters in television series such as Voltron: Legendary Defender (2016–2018), Tales of Arcadia (2016–2021), Stretch Armstrong and the Flex Fighters (2017–2018), Final Space (2018–2021), Tuca & Bertie (2019–2022), and Invincible (2021–present).

Early life

Yeun was born in Seoul on December 21, 1983, to Je and June Yeun.[3] His father was an architect in South Korea before moving his family in 1988 to Canada, where they lived in Regina, Saskatchewan.[4] In Regina, he attended Ruth M. Buck Elementary School.[5] He has a younger brother named Brian.[6] The family later moved to the U.S. and settled in Taylor, Michigan, and then Troy, Michigan, where Yeun lived until he graduated from Troy High School in 2001.[7][8] Growing up, Yeun's family spoke Korean at home.

Yeun was raised in a Christian household.[9][10][11][12] His parents, who owned beauty-supply stores in Detroit,[3] began calling him "Steven" after meeting a doctor by that name.[13] He received a bachelor's degree in psychology with a concentration in neuroscience[3] from Kalamazoo College in 2005.[10] At Kalamazoo, he befriended the sister of comedian Jordan Klepper and she took him to see Klepper's improv show, which inspired him to take his first acting class and later follow Klepper to Chicago, where they joined The Second City.[3]

Career

Early career

Yeun revealed to his parents that he planned to pursue an improv career in Chicago instead of enrolling in law school or medical school.[10][14] His parents were unhappy with the decision, but supported him nonetheless and gave him two years to pursue acting.[10] He moved to Chicago in 2005, living in the city's Lincoln Square with his brother.[9] Shortly after graduation, he joined Stir Friday Night!, a Chicago-based Asian American sketch comedy troupe.[10] Other alumni of the group include Danny Pudi, known for his role in Community. He joined The Second City in Chicago before moving to Los Angeles in October 2009.[10]

The Walking Dead

Yeun at the 2013 San Diego Comic-Con

Yeun's breakout role was the starring role of Glenn Rhee on The Walking Dead, an AMC television horror drama based on the comic book series of the same name. The series, which began in 2010, involves a group of characters who fight to survive in a violent apocalyptic world infested with flesh-eating zombies. The Walking Dead became the highest-rated series in cable television history, and seasons three through six of the show garnered the most 18 to 49-year-old viewers of any cable or broadcast television series.[15][16][17] The series has received mostly positive reviews from professional television critics.[18][19] Per Variety, Yeun was "a major part" of the show's success; his character developed "from a plucky young member of the show's central group to a bona fide action hero and sex symbol". Yeun left the show in 2016 after the season 7 premiere.[20]

In late 2018, Yeun played Ben in the South Korean mystery drama film Burning, directed by Lee Chang-dong.

In 2021, he was included in the Time 100, Time's annual list of the 100 most influential people in the world for his appearance in Minari.[36] In 2021, he co-starred alongside Jayne Houdyshell, Richard Jenkins and Amy Schumer, in Stephen Karam's award-winning one-act play adaptation The Humans.[37]
