Before SungWon Cho was a celebrated voice actor, he wrote radio plays, did voices for video game and anime characters, and posted “stuff online” under his Internet name, ProZD.
The way he describes his early beginnings feels like a throwback to an older internet โ before social media really exploded, it was possible to find niche communities on the fringes of spaces like Tumblr and Vine. At the time, this was how most aspiring voice actors started.
Today, Cho is a veteran with over 10 years of experience portraying characters in anime, cartoons and video games. If you’ve never seen Cho (neither in his online videos nor recently in a supporting role in 2023’s “Blackberry”), you’ve probably heard him as Hibasa in Monster Hunter Rise, Darros in Fire Emblem Heroes, and Vaserage in Granblue Fantasy vs. One of his best-known roles is Ratatoskr, a mythical squirrel messenger, in God of War Ragnarok, where he also provided motion capture and writing assistance.
