Ivy, born Park Eun-hye, is a South Korean singer and musical-theatre actor who established her career in Korea before transferring a signature role to Broadway. After debuting as a pop singer in 2005, she developed an extensive musical career in productions including Aida, Wicked, Ghost, Jekyll & Hyde, Dracula, Moulin Rouge!, and Chicago. Beginning in 2012, Ivy played Roxie Hart across six Korean seasons and nearly 600 performances. On August 17, 2026, she made her Broadway debut in the same role at the Ambassador Theatre for a limited engagement through September 6, bringing a signature role from a Korean licensed production to Broadway. Her debut represents a rare same-role transfer based on sustained experience in a Korean licensed production.
