Paul Battle is a Seoul-based Canadian actor and writer. He cut his acting teeth doing hundreds of episodes in educational TV just as the Korean wave was beginning to swell in the early 2000s. He made the transition to the entertainment industry in the late 2010s, taking on minor roles in Korean dramas and movies, speaking Korean when the role calls for it. Despite his 'dad-smile', he is often cast in political thrillers as a senior official.
