TVING’s upcoming drama “Island” has shared a new sneak peek of Kim Nam Gil in his starring role!
Based on the hit webtoon of the same name, “Island” is a fantasy drama about a dark secret hidden on beautiful Jeju Island—and people who are fated to fight evil forces that are trying to destroy the world.
Kim Nam Gil will be playing the role of Pan, an immortal monster hunter who has been protecting the world from evil demons for thousands of years. Lee Da Hee will star as Mi Ho, a chaebol heiress who possesses a powerful strength of which she is unaware, while ASTRO’s Cha Eun Woo will star as a young exorcist priest known as John.
Pan, who is described as being both a human and a monster at the same time, has endured millennia on his own in order to kill the evil demons that are trying to enter the human world through Jeju Island. One photo captures the hunter in the midst of a thrilling fight, wearing both a murderous glare and a self-assured smirk at the same time, while another shows him gripping a weapon with an intense look of determination.
The producers of “Island” commented, “From the very first shoot, Kim Nam Gil brought the character of Pan to life through not only a detailed analysis of the character, but also a three-dimensional performance in which he disappeared fully into the role. Please look forward to the performance of actor Kim Nam Gil, who will be leading the story while standing at its center.”
“Island” will premiere on December 30.
