Ryu Won (born Joo Won on November 8, 1997)[1] is a South Korean actress. She is best known for her role in the MBC series Missing 9.
Early life
Born Joo Won in Haeundae, Busan, she changed her surname to avoid confusion with the namesake actor, Joo Won.[2] Ryu lived in Busan till she was in third grade of elementary school, then immigrated with her family to the United States.[3]

After entering a beauty contest in Los Angeles when she was 17 years old, she got an offer from JYP Entertainment to be a trainee there. Ryu moved to South Korea and started studying acting after graduating from high school at the age of 18.[2]
