Park Seo-hwi has drawn attention for an unconventional resume that spans a girl group, broadcast work and, most recently, shamanism.
On April 1, MBN’s official channel posted a teaser titled, “Announcer Park Seo-hwi, formerly of a girl group, on why she underwent a spirit-receiving ritual for her family.”
In the video, Park said she repeatedly dreamed that members of her family were dying. She said that when she went to get a fortune reading, the first words she heard were, “You’re full of spirits, aren’t you?”
Park said she struggled with the decision. “What if I don’t receive it?” she said, referring to the ritual. “My family is everything to me. I’ve lived for my family.” She added, “I want to live my life as I used to, working in broadcasting. But I have to go, so I’m taking this path,” describing her feelings about entering a shaman’s life.
Park worked in 2013 as a member of the girl group LPG under the stage name Ayul.
In 2015, she worked as a reporter for SPOTV Games and took on drama appearances and hosting roles.
In 2016, she appeared on tvN’s “Society Game” Season 1 under the stage name Park Ha-el.
The report said Park can speak five languages, citing her experience living in places including the United States and France, and that she gained popularity as a SPOTV announcer.
Her account of why she became a shaman will be aired on “Unusual World Exclusive” at 9:10 p.m. on April 2.
