Park was born in Jeungpyeong, North Chungcheong Province. She is the second of three daughters. Her father served for 34 years as a soldier in the Special Forces. She is known for her natural beauty after her childhood photos surfaced on an online community.

Before her official acting debut in 2006, Park appeared in a short film titled Equal in 2005 when she was in middle school. The short film won the Challenging Reality Award at the 7th Seoul International Youth Film Festival (SIYFF 2005). She has been dubbed as "Nation's Little Sister" because of its success.

Park's ankle ligaments were torn during a workout before shooting began for TV series Strong Girl Do Bong Soon. In April 2017, the hospital advised her to wear a cast, but she had to use ankle tape and started out with physical therapy instead, due to the ongoing filming. Two months after wrapping up the series, she underwent a twenty-minute minor surgery. In September 2017, Park began filming the romance film On Your Wedding Day. In August 2018, Park was cast in tvN's series Abyss, where she plays a beautiful prosecutor who transforms into a plain-looking girl after taking a magical pearl.
