Career

He rose to prominence in the entertainment industry with his debut as a model in 2014.[3]

In 2016, Byeon made his acting debut in a cameo portraying the character of Son Jongshik in Dear My Friends.

Byeon in February 2018

Continuing his acting career, Byeon took on a supporting role in the 2019 drama series Search: WWW, which further solidified his presence in the industry.[4] The same year, he garnered praise from both critics and viewers for his portrayal of Do-joon in the JTBC's television series Flower Crew: Joseon Marriage Agency.[5][6]

2020–present: Transition to lead role and rising popularity

In 2020, Byeon was cast in a lead role in the tvN television series Record of Youth as Won Hae-hyo, starring opposite of Park So-dam and Park Bo-gum.[7]

In 2021, Byeon was cast in KBS2's historical drama Moonshine. After landing the role of Lee Pyo as the rebellious crown prince, he was awarded Best New Actor at the 2022 KBS Drama Awards.[8] In the same year, Byeon received his first leading role in a film with 20th Century Girl, portraying the role of Poong Woon-ho. The film premiered in 2022 and received immense popularity both domestically and internationally.[9]

In 2022, Byeon received another offer to lead in the film Soulmate where he starred as the character of Hum Jin-woo, starring opposite of Kim Da-mi and Jeon So-nee. The film was released in theaters in 2023.[10]

On July 19, 2023, Byeon was cast in tvN's time slip fantasy drama, Lovely Runner in his first main leading role in television alongside Kim Hye-yoon. It premiered in April 2024.[11][12] Although largely unanticipated, Lovely Runner recorded the highest number of weekly viewers among 2024 dramas[13] with audiences praising Byeon's performance, the storyline, and his pairing opposite Kim Hye-Yoon. Thanks to the popularity of "Lovely Runner," he is often referred to by his character name "Sunjae" rather than his real name.[14] The success of Lovely Runner catapulted both Byeon and Kim's respective careers.
