Park Jeong Soo, known professionally as Leeteuk, is a South Korean singer-songwriter, dancer, MC, actor, entertainer, and member of SUPER JUNIOR (슈퍼주니어). He graduated from Sungshil High School and later obtained bachelor's and master's degrees in Broadcasting Music, both from Cheongwoon University.

He was recruited in 2000 after he passed an audition at SM Entertainment (SM엔터테인먼트) in Seoul. Lee Soo Man wanted to create a versatile group with members who had experience in different fields (acting, dancing, presenting, etc.). He based his idea on the Japanese girl group MORNING MOSUME (モーニング娘), who debuted in 1997 and established a successful rotation of their lineup since then. He called his new group, SUPER JUNIOR 05.

He made his debut in November 2005 as the group's leader, sub-vocalist and sub-rapper with their first single, “Twins (Knock Out)“, part of their debut album "Twins", which was released one month later. The idea of a rotational group was dropped when Cho Kyu Hyun was added to the lineup in 2006. Nonetheless, SUPER JUNIOR has become one of the most successful K-Pop representatives and their ability to excel in different areas of the entertainment industry forced a change in the way other companies prepared their trainees.

As part of SM's strategy to not limit the group's activities while certain members focused on their individual careers, several sub-groups have been created since their debut. He debuted as part of SUPER JUNIOR-T (슈퍼주니어-T), focusing on trot music, in February 2007 with their single album “Rokkugo!!!”. Then, in May 2008, he became part of SUPER JUNIOR-H (슈퍼주니어-Happy) and debuted with their single album “Cooking? Cooking!”. Finally, he joined SUPER JUNIOR- L.S.S (슈퍼주니어-L.S.S.) and debuted in July 2023 with the single "Close The Shutter".

He enlisted for his mandatory service on October 30, 2012, and was discharged on July 29, 2014. After serving, he has been more involved in other areas, such as hosting (both radio and TV), appearing in variety shows, and composing.
