Park Jung-hoon was born and raised in Taean, South Chungcheong Province, South Korea. His parents own a small video rental shop, so he had many opportunities to watch movies from an early age.

He prepared for the entrance exam in the art major until the second grade. However, he couldn't hold his passion for movies in his heart and eventually gave up going to college.{{Cite web |last=Park |first=Ga-young |date=July 13, 2017 |title=35세에 영화 한편으로 세계를 놀라게 한 한국인 |trans-title=A Korean who surprised the world with a movie at the age of 35. |url=https://misaeng.chosun.com/site/data/html_dir/2017/07/13/2017071301022.html |access-date=2022-04-25 |website=misaeng.chosun.com |language=ko}}
