Jeon Mi-do
Jeon Mi-do (Korean: 전미도; born August 4, 1982) is a South Korean actress and singer. She debuted as ensemble cast in musical Mr. Mouse in 2006. She later made a name for herself by appearing in famous works such as the musical Finding Kim Jong-wook, Doctor Zhivago, and Maybe Happy Ending. In 2015, she won the Best Actress Award at the 9th The Musical Awards, and in 2017 and 2018, she once again bagged the Best Actress Award back-to-back at the 1st and 2nd Korean Musical Awards, respectively.
She transitioned to the small screen with her first television role in the series Mother (2018), and gained wider recognition for her prominent role as Dr. Chae Song-hwa in Hospital Playlist (2020–2021). She subsequently starred in the series Thirty-Nine (2022) alongside actresses Son Ye-jin and Kim Ji-hyun.
Jeon Mi-do, born on August 4, 1982, in Busan, is the only daughter among three siblings. After her father's death, she and her two brothers were raised by their mother. Jeon aspired to be a theater actress from the third grade, inspired by a church play she attended. During her elementary years, she participated in a group reading of a play called The One-Legged Goose from a Korean language textbook, practicing with a friend. She memorized her lines easily and performed confidently, which led her to recognize her interest in acting.
"I first saw the musical Grease starring Yoo Jun-sang, in Busan when I was in high school. It was a shocking experience. I was convinced and thought, 'That's what I'm going to do.'"
Initially focused on her studies, Jeon dropped out of school in her second year of middle school but returned a year later, continuing her education alongside her younger siblings. While attending Busan Dongho Information Girls' High School, she watched her first musical, Grease, which reinforced her desire to pursue a career in theater.
During her teenage years, Jeon found it challenging to communicate with her family and sought friendships where she could express herself openly. She turned to singing and often visited karaoke. In her third year of high school, a friend invited her to join a female band called "Dali," which performed at various boys' high school festivals. Her mother expressed concern about Jeon's focus on music rather than academics. Later, Jeon expressed her intention to enroll in the Department of Theater and Film, which surprised her mother. However, Jeon's persistence led to her mother's eventual approval. She began her studies later than her peers but felt motivated by her aspirations and successfully enrolled in the Theater and Film Department at Myongji University in Seoul.
After relocating to Seoul, Jeon's college friends were unaware of her Busan origins because she worked diligently to adopt the Seoul accent, which she deemed essential for her acting career. While she successfully adjusted her accent, mastering the local dialect presented challenges, occasionally causing others to view her as aloof. Through her involvement in stage performances, she refined her speech and personality, participating in approximately 12 productions before graduating.
After graduating from Myongji University, Jeon Mi-do made her debut in 2006 as Yang Yang-yi in the musical Mr. Mouse. In 2007, she made her theater debut in the play Liar, followed by the musical White Proposal in 2008, where she portrayed the role of a high school girl.
