Before becoming the Vice Minister of Education in May 2017, she was the deputy Superintendent of Seoul Office of Education from July 2016[2] and previously North Chungcheong Office of Education[3] from December 2014.

After passing the state exam in 1989, she dedicated her career in public service - mostly at the Ministry or its preceding agency. In 2005 she became its head of University Affairs Bureau - the youngest to assume this level at South Korean government at the age of 40.[4]

Park also led Office of General Administration at Kyungpook National University and Gangneung–Wonju National University respectively.[5]

After leaving the public service as the Vice Minister in 2018, she was recruited to fulfill the role of President of National Human Resource Management Institute - a vice-ministerial role emptied by Yang Hyang-ja for her 2020 general election.

Park holds two degrees in law - a bachelor from Seoul National University and a master's from UC Berkeley School of Law.
