He rose to stardom in his first film The Way Home, playing a bratty city boy who learns to appreciate country life when he's forced to spend the summer with his deaf-mute grandmother.

He continued acting in television, appearing in Magic Warriors Mir & Gaon (2005), an adventure series for children.

Later that year, Yoo sang a duet with singer/actress IU titled "Believe in Love" for the charity program Love Request.
