Christine Pak

Christine Pak is a Korean-Canadian former actress,[1] who received a Genie Award nomination for Best Actress at the 7th Genie Awards in 1986 for her performance in the film 90 Days.[2]

Originally from Seoul, South Korea, Pak's family moved to Vancouver, British Columbia when she was a teenager.[1] She later competed in and won the Miss Korea of Canada pageant.[1] She was not an aspiring actress, but won the role in 90 Days after driving her sister to the auditions and being invited to take part herself.[1]

She subsequently had a small role in the film The Believers, and reprised her 90 Days role in the sequel The Last Straw.[3] She did not continue working as an actress afterward.
