Nov 30, 2023

TVING’s upcoming drama “Death’s Game” has shared a sneak peek of Kim Jae Wook’s mysterious character!

Based on the webtoon of the same name, “Death’s Game” tells the story of a man who gets more than one second chance at life after facing death. Park So Dam will play the role of Death, who sentences a man named Choi Yi Jae (Seo In Guk) to 12 cycles of life and death.

Kim Jae Wook will be playing the role of Jung Gyu Cheol, a painter who was born to an ordinary family but believes that he has an extraordinary talent. With his unusual aesthetic sense, Jung Gyu Cheol is inspired by something he happens to see on the street and captures it on canvas. When the resulting painting is lauded internationally as a striking portrayal of the cruelty hidden deep within human beings, Jung Gyu Cheol’s art career takes off.

After becoming a critics’ darling, Jung Gyu Cheol is now in the midst of preparing his next work. However, one of the newly released stills from the upcoming drama captures Jung Gyu Cheol at a dark, abandoned building, raising the question of what the painter could be doing in such a desolate place late at night.

The producers of “Death’s Game” remarked, “In contrast to actor Kim Jae Wook’s gentle appearance, something about the character of Jung Gyu Cheol gives off a slightly dangerous vibe. Kim Jae Wook is flawlessly portraying those complexities of the character.”

They went on to add, “Please keep an eye on the passionate performance of actor Kim Jae Wook, who maintains a firm balance as he goes back and forth between [his character’s] many emotions, from cruelty to desperate misery.”
