‘Hyperknife’ is a medical thriller that depicts the fierce confrontation between ‘Seo-uk’, a once-promising genius doctor, and his mentor ‘Deok-hee’, who brought him to ruin.
Park Eun-bin, who perfectly portrayed the complex inner world of the genius lawyer ‘Woo Young-woo’ with autism spectrum in ‘Extraordinary Attorney Woo’ and won the Grand Prize in the TV category at the 59th Baeksang Arts Awards, will take on the role of ‘Jung Seo-uk’, a fallen genius surgeon, marking a new acting transformation.
Following his win for Best Actor in the film category at the 58th Baeksang Arts Awards for ‘Kingmaker’, the irreplaceable actor Seol Kyung-gu, known for his perfect acting in every work, will play ‘Choi Deok-hee’, the world’s top neurosurgeon who cruelly rejects ‘Seo-uk’, heightening expectations for the explosive acting duel between the two actors.
Additionally, actor Yoon Chan-young, who has gained immense love from fans for his visuals and acting in dramas like ‘Boys Flight’, ‘Delivery Man’, and ‘All of Us Are Dead’, will take on the role of ‘Seo-young’, a bodyguard who always protects ‘Seo-uk’ like a shadow. Actor Park Byung-eun, who has captivated the public with his wide-ranging performances across various genres in films like ‘Citizen Deok-hee’, ‘Mathematician in Wonderland’, and dramas like ‘Seonsan’ and Disney+'s ‘Moving’, will portray ‘Han Hyun-ho’, an anesthesiologist who helps ‘Jung Seo-uk’ continue his surgeries, showcasing his remarkable acting skills.
Director Kim Jung-hyun, who has deeply captured the tension in numerous works such as ‘Day and Night’ and ‘Crazy Love’, will helm the project, signaling the birth of a differentiated medical thriller.
On the afternoon of the 17th, a press screening and media conference for the film ‘Streaming’ will be held, with actor Kang Ha-neul and director Jo Jang-ho in attendance.
‘Streaming’ is a thriller film where ‘Woo-sang (Kang Ha-neul)’, the top streamer of a crime channel, discovers clues to an unresolved serial murder case and broadcasts the process of tracking the culprit in real-time.
In particular, ‘Streaming’ features Kang Ha-neul, who has proven his solid acting skills across various genres including ‘Squid Game Season 2’, ‘When the Camellia Blooms’, ‘Midnight Runners’, ‘30 Days’, and ‘Dongju’, showcasing a bold transformation as ‘Woo-sang’, the top streamer of a crime channel.
Moreover, director Jo Jang-ho, recognized as a reliable creator in the crime thriller genre through novels like ‘Rapture 1992’ and ‘Justice’, takes the helm, perfectly recreating the world of real-time broadcasting with his delicate and structured directing.
