Actor Kim Kang-woo foretold the birth of a previous-class villain character through the movie 'The Scion' (director Park Hoon-jung).
On the 24th, the distributor NEW released a still of Kim Kang-woo, who plays the role of a director in 'The Scion'. 'The Scion' is a story in which forces with different goals, including an unknown male scion (Kim Seon-ho), appear in front of Marco (Kang Tae-joo), a boxer who wanders around illegal stadiums in the Philippines, and pursues madness.
From the movies 'Gourmet', 'The Taste of Money', 'The Tramp', and 'The Night That Disappeared' to the dramas 'Deril Husband Oh Jak Doo', 'Woman of 9.9 Billion', and 'Duke City', regardless of genre or character, they cross good and evil. Kim Kang-woo, who boasts a wide acting spectrum, is expected to emit a strong presence by playing a villain character in 'The Scion'.
In the play, Kim Kang-woo's director is a second-generation conglomerate who persistently pursues Marco, and is the person who provides an excuse for all incidents. Kim Kang-woo said, “If the villains that have been shown so far have been characters who mainly use their heads, Director Han is a person who reacts with his body first rather than his head.” He added, "I like it the most among the villains I've played so far. He's unstoppable and cool."
The actors and staff together said, "A rediscovery of actor Kim Kang-woo! Showing a new look once again" (Kim Seon-ho), "I show various performances so that the other person can react in various ways. Thanks to that, I was able to show more raw emotions." (Kang Tae-joo), "He plays what he wants to express professionally" (Shin Tae-ho, cinematographer), "A veteran actor who knows how to make a villain character mean and cruel" (Martial arts director Hwang Jin-mo).
Kim Kang-woo, who is divided into a director who acts with eyes full of life and does not know where to go, will double the tension of the play by making a point in the world villain character lineup of Park Hoon-jung following the movie 'New World' Park Seong-woong, 'The Witch' Park Hee-soon, and 'Night of Paradise' Cha Seung-won. Is expected.
'The Scion' will be released on June 21st.
