Kim In-kwon Shines as Scene-Stealer in 'I'll Give You the Universe', Tops Viewership in 142 Countries

Actor Kim In-kwon is making a significant impact as a scene-stealer in the drama 'I'll Give You the Universe'. The show, which premiered with a 1.9% viewership rating, has consistently maintained ratings in the 1% range for seven consecutive episodes. Despite its modest domestic performance, the drama has proven its global appeal by ranking number one in viewership across 142 countries.

Kim In-kwon plays the role of Bae Doo-sik, a long-time resident of Yuseong Villa, in the tvN Wednesday-Thursday drama 'I'll Give You the Universe'. From his first appearance, Kim captivated audiences with his vibrant tracksuit and unique charm. His distinctive dialect and witty banter bring Bae Doo-sik's character to life, providing comic relief as he roams the villa like a neighborhood busybody.

Bae Doo-sik, the self-proclaimed 'information hub' of Yuseong Villa, makes his presence felt. He often arrives with hands full of side dishes, using his warm dialect to set the tone. Noticing the subtle tension between Seon Tae-hyung (played by Bae In-hyuk) and Woo Hyun-jin (played by Roh Jeong-eui), he casually stirs the pot with a simple, "Did something happen between you two?" His quick wit and realistic advice to Tae-hyung add energy to the scenes.

Kim In-kwon flawlessly embodies the lovable yet meddlesome Bae Doo-sik with his stable acting skills, enhancing viewer engagement. As he continues to portray this relatable character with authenticity, anticipation grows for his future performances in 'I'll Give You the Universe'.
