Aaron’s first work in front of the camera was for a television series called ‘Ed’, in the year 2003, where he was seen in just a single episode. Since then he has appeared in five other television projects, where his role lasted for one episode.

Aaron’s major breakthrough came in the form of a horror flick by name ‘Disturbia’ in the year 2007. This movie, which also starred Shia Lebeouf, turned out to be a great turning point in Yoo’s career.

In the year 2008, Yoo starred in the heist-drama movie ‘21’, where he got to share screen space with famous Academy Award winners like Kevin Spacey and Laurence Fishburne. This movie also turned out to become a major box office success in spite of the mixed reviews from critics.
