Arden Cho biography
Arden Cho, born August 16, 1985, built her first career as an American actress and voice actor long before she became known in poker circles.
She rose to fame playing Kira Yukimura in Season 3 of "Teen Wolf," later landed her first major leading role as Ingrid Yun in the Netflix legal drama "Partner Track," and reached a new level of global recognition voicing Rumi, one of the lead characters in the 2025 Netflix animated film "KPop Demon Hunters," which became the most-watched original title in Netflix history with over 500 million views and earned two Academy Award nominations.
Alongside her acting career, Cho has quietly built a genuine poker resume, competing in major festivals including the WSOP Main Event and WPT World Championship. Her biggest result to date came in January 2024, when she finished runner-up in the PokerGO Tour's PGT Championship for $200,000, a result that turned heads across the poker world and confirmed she was far more than a celebrity dabbling in the game.
