'Made in Korea' The Pursuer of Obsession and Madness 'Jang Geon-young' Poster Released!

In the 1970s, a time of chaos and leap in South Korea, the story of Baek Gi-tae (Hyun Bin), who aims to reach the pinnacle of wealth and power by making the nation a profit model, and prosecutor Jang Geon-young (Jung Woo-sung), who pursues him with terrifying obsession to the edge of a cliff, faces enormous events that penetrate the era. The poster and character teaser video capturing the 'Jang Geon-young' who does not stop his uncontrollable pursuit with mad obsession from the series 〈Made in Korea〉 have been released.

Actor Jung Woo-sung, who has shown overwhelming presence in numerous works such as the movies 〈The Spring of Seoul〉, 〈Asura〉, 〈The King〉, 〈Steel Rain〉 series, 〈Witness〉, 〈Hunt〉, 〈Protector〉, and the drama [Tell Me You Love Me], raises expectations by playing the role of prosecutor 'Jang Geon-young' from Disney+'s original series 〈Made in Korea〉. In a harsh environment, 'Jang Geon-young', who became a prosecutor by his own efforts, is a character who faces a huge crime cartel while investigating 'Baek Gi-tae' with a terrifying obsession hidden behind his hearty laughter. Jung Woo-sung, who has deeply portrayed the emotions of characters with a wide acting spectrum across genres, perfectly transforms into 'Jang Geon-young', who has a wide emotional range, and is expected to create a tense atmosphere while confronting 'Baek Gi-tae'.

The released 'Jang Geon-young' poster captures Jung Woo-sung's figure left alone on a dark and silent street. The side profile of Jung Woo-sung illuminated by red lighting reveals 'Jang Geon-young's' single-mindedness, loneliness, and relentless tenacity that surpasses it. The determined expression of Jung Woo-sung, combined with the copy “Save me from the power of the dog,” succinctly shows 'Jang Geon-young's' tendency to spare no means for his principles.

The character teaser video released alongside maximizes Jung Woo-sung's presence by utilizing intense contrasts in black and white tones. The light and shadow in the video create a perfect synergy with restrained charisma, overwhelming the viewer's gaze. In particular, the line “You have to be prepared to face me,” spoken in Jung Woo-sung's voice, vividly shows the character of 'Jang Geon-young', who does not easily back down even in crisis. Additionally, the line “I have a lot of anger. (omitted) That is also the source of my life.” reveals the anger and madness he harbors without filter, leaving a strong impression. The reckless single-mindedness of 'Jang Geon-young', who does not let go once he bites, stands perfectly opposite to 'Baek Gi-tae', who aims for the pinnacle of power, while blurring the line between good and evil, adding weight to the narrative.

Disney+'s original series 〈Made in Korea〉, which will provide overwhelming immersion with the superb acting of representative actors from South Korea and the intense confrontation of three-dimensional characters, will release a total of 6 episodes exclusively on Disney+, with 2 episodes on December 24 (Wednesday), 2 episodes on December 31 (Wednesday), 1 episode on January 7 (Wednesday), and 1 episode on January 14 (Wednesday).
