## Early life
Lomon was born in Uzbekistan in 1999 to parents of [Koryo-saram](https://www.edgepedia.org/koryo-saram) descent, the ethnic Korean community of the former Soviet Union. In interviews he has described himself as a Korean, saying that although he was born in Uzbekistan he is a descendant of the Koryo people, and that he grew up attending Korean schools without experiencing life as part of a multicultural family.<sup>[1](https://v.daum.net/v/20220211180101549)</sup>

He originally wanted to be an idol singer because he liked dancing. An acquaintance introduced him to Jeong Hoon-tak of the agency Sidus HQ, who suggested he try acting instead; Lomon has said it began as something of a pastime but became genuinely fun and appealing as he continued.<sup>[1](https://v.daum.net/v/20220211180101549)</sup> He has studied acting with the same teacher since he was twelve years old.<sup>[7](https://digitalchosun.dizzo.com/site/data/html_dir/2022/02/15/2022021580177.html)</sup>

## Career

**Child and teenage roles.** Lomon debuted in 2014 in the TV Chosun drama *[Bride of the Century](https://www.edgepedia.org/bride-of-the-century)* and appeared the same year in MBC's *The Legendary Witch*.<sup>[3](https://m.namu.moe/w/%EB%A1%9C%EB%AA%AC)</sup> He built his filmography gradually through the late 2010s, appearing in the MBC drama *Lookout*, the SBS drama *Doctors*, the web drama *Revenge Note*, and the 2016 film *Horror Stories 3*, which he has called his formal debut as an actor.<sup>[8](https://www.harpersbazaar.co.kr/article/63651)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[2](https://9626.tistory.com/entry/%EB%A1%9C%EB%AA%AC-%ED%94%84%EB%A1%9C%ED%95%84-%EC%98%A4%EB%8A%98%EB%B6%80%ED%84%B0-%EC%9D%B8%EA%B0%84%EC%9E%85%EB%8B%88%EB%8B%A4%EB%A7%8C-%EA%B0%95%EC%8B%9C%EC%97%B4-%EC%97%AD-%EA%B0%80%EC%A1%B1%EA%B3%84%ED%9A%8D)</sup> He gained wider attention with the 2017 web series *Sweet Revenge*, about a teenager who finds a phone application that carries out revenge missions on anyone whose name she types into it.<sup>[9](https://yoursay.suara.com/amp/ulasan/2022/01/30/195259/3-drama-korea-dan-china-park-solomon-pemeran-lee-soo-hyuk-dalam-all-of-us-are-dead)</sup> In 2020 he changed his stage name from Park Solomon to Lomon.<sup>[2](https://9626.tistory.com/entry/%EB%A1%9C%EB%AA%AC-%ED%94%84%EB%A1%9C%ED%95%84-%EC%98%A4%EB%8A%98%EB%B6%80%ED%84%B0-%EC%9D%B8%EA%B0%84%EC%9E%85%EB%8B%88%EB%8B%A4%EB%A7%8C-%EA%B0%95%EC%8B%9C%EC%97%B4-%EC%97%AD-%EA%B0%80%EC%A1%B1%EA%B3%84%ED%9A%8D)</sup>

**Breakout with *All of Us Are Dead*.** In January 2022 Lomon played Lee Su-hyeok in *All of Us Are Dead* (*지금 우리 학교는*), a Netflix series adapted from Joo Dong-geun's popular webtoon of the same name, directed by Lee Jae-kyu. Su-hyeok is an athletic high school student who once belonged to the school's rough crowd but reformed, and who fights to survive a zombie outbreak at Hyosan High School while carrying feelings for class president Nam-ra (Cho Yi-hyun).<sup>[4](https://www.yna.co.kr/view/AKR20221215128300005)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[10](https://enews.imbc.com/Tpl/View/338367)</sup>

The series became a global hit. It held the number one position on Netflix's worldwide TV chart, reaching first place in 54 countries within days of its 28 January 2022 release, and prompting *The Guardian* to call South Korea the world's best at zombie productions.<sup>[5](https://www.joongang.co.kr/article/25045033)</sup> Lomon's own profile rose sharply: his Instagram following, roughly 360,000 before the series premiered, reached 5.6 million, and one report counted 2 million new followers in under a week.<sup>[11](https://www.wkorea.com/2022/10/27/%EB%A1%9C%EB%AA%AC-%EB%A1%9C%EB%AA%AC-%EB%A1%9C%EB%AA%AC)</sup>

The physical preparation was substantial. He began action training three months before filming, ran a 10 km round trip nightly to build stamina, and worked out in the gym to raise his body weight to 75 kg for the role.<sup>[1](https://v.daum.net/v/20220211180101549)</sup> Director Lee Jae-kyu spent long conversations with him before shooting and asked him to play Su-hyeok as himself, projecting his own feelings into the character rather than imagining an outside role.<sup>[7](https://digitalchosun.dizzo.com/site/data/html_dir/2022/02/15/2022021580177.html)</sup>

**First lead role.** In November 2022 Lomon starred in his first lead role as Ji Seok-heon in the Disney+ series *Revenge of Others* (*3인칭 복수*), a teenage revenge thriller alongside [Shin Ye-eun](https://www.edgepedia.org/shin-ye-eun). His character, a high school student with a genius for fighting, takes on revenge commissions on behalf of victims of school violence to pay for his mother's medical bills.<sup>[6](https://v.daum.net/v/20221225110011394)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[4](https://www.yna.co.kr/view/AKR20221215128300005)</sup> Lomon said he attempted to play the revenge scenes with the diction of "an apostle of justice," working out how to portray a hero-like figure.<sup>[4](https://www.yna.co.kr/view/AKR20221215128300005)</sup>

**2024 and beyond.** Lomon appeared in two 2024 productions, the drama *[Branding in Seongsu](https://www.edgepedia.org/branding-in-seongsu)* and the Coupang Play original series *Family Plan* (*가족계획*), playing Baek Ji-hoon, the son of characters played by [Bae Doona](https://www.edgepedia.org/bae-doona) and Ryoo Seung-bum.<sup>[2](https://9626.tistory.com/entry/%EB%A1%9C%EB%AA%AC-%ED%94%84%EB%A1%9C%ED%95%84-%EC%98%A4%EB%8A%98%EB%B6%80%ED%84%B0-%EC%9D%B8%EA%B0%84%EC%9E%85%EB%8B%88%EB%8B%A4%EB%A7%8C-%EA%B0%95%EC%8B%9C%EC%97%B4-%EC%97%AD-%EA%B0%80%EC%A1%B1%EA%B3%84%ED%9A%8D)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[12](https://v.daum.net/v/20241220000052672)</sup> *Family Plan*, released 29 November 2024, follows a mother with the special ability to edit memories who joins her family in punishing villains; for his hacker role Lomon attended action school despite the character being written as the family's intelligence figure.<sup>[12](https://v.daum.net/v/20241220000052672)</sup> He described the experience of working with senior actors Bae Doona and Ryoo Seung-bum as tense at first, after having worked mostly with actors his own age.<sup>[12](https://v.daum.net/v/20241220000052672)</sup>

He next starred as Kang Si-yeol in the SBS romantic comedy fantasy *From Today, It's My Turn as a Human* (*오늘부터 인간입니다만*), which aired from January 2026 in the Friday-Saturday slot following *The Fiery Priest 3* (as the follow-up to *Modem Taxi 3* per the broadcast schedule in the sources).<sup>[13](https://news.sbs.co.kr/news/endPage.do?news_id=N1008461950)</sup> At the series' end, he said he hoped to repay the passion he had learned from his character with better work ahead.<sup>[13](https://news.sbs.co.kr/news/endPage.do?news_id=N1008461950)</sup>

## Public image and approach
Lomon has named [Lee Byung-hun](https://www.edgepedia.org/lee-byung-hun) and [Choi Woo-shik](https://www.edgepedia.org/choi-woo-shik) among his role models, saying that all of his seniors serve that function for him.<sup>[7](https://digitalchosun.dizzo.com/site/data/html_dir/2022/02/15/2022021580177.html)</sup> After *All of Us Are Dead* he said he had never acted with thoughts of a work's commercial results, and described being loved by audiences in countries he had never visited as strange and blessed.<sup>[6](https://v.daum.net/v/20221225110011394)</sup> Reflecting on his string of teenage roles, he told Yonhap News that he hopes to move into brighter productions, including a youth drama about worrying over grades rather than life and death.<sup>[4](https://www.yna.co.kr/view/AKR20221215128300005)</sup>

His personal favorite moment of *All of Us Are Dead* was the fate of the character Gyeong-su, played by Ham Sung-min, whose death scene he found so affecting that it felt like genuinely losing a friend.<sup>[7](https://digitalchosun.dizzo.com/site/data/html_dir/2022/02/15/2022021580177.html)</sup> He has also attributed the series' global appeal to its closed school setting, its high school protagonists, and its unusually fast zombies.<sup>[10](https://enews.imbc.com/Tpl/View/338367)</sup>
