‘Queen’ Kim Nam-joo returns with determination

Actor Kim Nam-joo made a spectacular return. He immediately caught the attention of viewers with his extraordinary acting skills.

'Wonderful World' is a human mystery drama in which Eun Soo-hyun, who personally punished her son's murderer, uncovers the mysterious secrets surrounding that day. This is a work that attracted attention due to the meeting between 'drama queen' Kim Nam-joo, who returned after 6 years, and Cha Eun-woo, who is anticipating a transformation in acting. Immediately after the release of the main story, Kim Nam-joo's passionate performance became a hot topic.

In episodes 1 and 2, Eun Soo-hyun (Kim Nam-joo), a famous psychology professor and writer who lived a happy life that could be called perfect, kills his young son by hitting him with his car, and instead of asking for forgiveness, he becomes the perpetrator of a murder-for-hire who mocks himself and his son. He was depicted personally punishing and becoming an ex-convict. Moreover, Su-hyeon did not ask for leniency for the sins she committed, and even said goodbye to Kang Su-ho (Kim Kang-woo), who was labeled a murderer husband, walking alone into the fire of hell, breaking the hearts of the viewers. After being released from prison, Eun Soo-hyun forms a relationship with Kwon Seon-yul (played by Cha Eun-woo), a subordinate of politician Kim Jun (played by Park Hyeok-kwon), who was implicated in his son's death, and attention is focused on what will happen to him in the future.

Among these, Kim Nam-joo proved herself why she was given the title ‘Queen’. In particular, when he went to the place where his dead son was found, and saw him sobbing in pain as if his heart had been torn out after his body was lying on the cold floor, it moved the viewer to tears and made the perpetrator look like a person who sold his soul to the devil. The expression on Kim Nam-joo's face as he punished Eun Soo-hyun completely convinced the viewer of the extreme motherhood that Eun Soo-hyun possessed.

In fact, Kim Nam-joo previously said through Disney+'s YouTube video content, "There wasn't a single scene in the beginning of the play where I didn't cry. I didn't even need makeup. I think I cried the most out of all the dramas I've ever done. I didn't prepare for this work. “I focused on not practicing and not practicing. I focused on expressing my honest feelings,” he said.

‘Wonderful World’ can be seen every Friday and Saturday through Disney+, and episode 3 will be released on March 8th.
