Bobo is an established Korean talent in Los Angeles, not chewy tapioca balls at the bottom of your milk tea. You might recognize him from his appearances on HBO comedies like Silicon Valley, to teen shows (Victorious, Sonny With a Chance, Secret Life of the American Teenager), to dramas like General Hospital, NCIS:LA, Glee, Murder on the First! Recently he appeared on Jane the Virgin for a third time, Curb Your Enthusiasm, and didn't appear on Arrested Development season 5 on Netflix (his scene was cut)! Also, he was on Verizon Go90's Mr. Student Body President Seasons 1-4 as Owen Pushkin! Did you catch him in (almost) Best Picture winner La La Land?!
You may also have spotted him in a Dell commercial with Jenn McAllister, as well as Where's Waldo-like appearances in Draft Kings, Exxon/Mobil, Zaxby's, Samsung, U.S. Cellular, Car Fax, and a Malaysian (s/o!) Celcom commercial. You can also hear his voice in a plethora of things, including Grand Theft Auto V, Blade and Soul, dubbing on Netflix's The Stranded, and Nickelodeon's All That revival (multiple episodes)!
Robert, as the law might call him, was born in weird, wet Portland, Oregon. The youngest of three in a Korean family, Bobo learned quickly that his cuteness (and crying) could often get him what he wanted. Being forced indoors due to all the rain, Bobo developed his quirks and desired to express his creativity. He began acting in high school and never looked back. While attending Biola University, he did look sideways, though, studying and making films. Upon graduating, he went full bore with acting.
He's been very blessed in his blossoming journey thus far, though he still hasn't shown anyone "the Car Fax". But he is showing very active with auditions, training, and working on independent projects. Recently, he's decided to focus on tackling his passion of directing again.
Blessed by God with a wonderful wife, beautiful little children, amazing friends, and young Asian genes, Bobo currently resides in the LA area. The best is yet to come!
