The 〈Climax〉 on Disney+ is set to premiere today, March 16 (Monday), revealing deadly viewing points that will keep viewers glued to their screens.

#1. A Full-Scale Battle for the Top Position in South Korea!

The deadly story of a massive power cartel entangled with prosecutors, chaebols, and the entertainment industry!

Today, March 16 (Monday), the 〈Climax〉 released on Disney+ is a fierce survival drama of prosecutor Bang Tae-seob who jumped into the power cartel to stand at the top of South Korea and those surrounding him. The reason why 〈Climax〉 is already attracting viewers' hot interest is due to the full-scale battle of desires unfolding within a massive power structure intertwined with prosecutors, chaebols, and the entertainment industry, along with an unpredictable and deadly story. Centered around prosecutor 'Bang Tae-seob' (Ju Ji-hoon) who is racing towards a higher position, the characters driven by their own desires and interests use and check each other, engaging in a tense psychological battle. The choices of characters that shake the game of power, from which there is no escape once you step in, heighten the tension in each episode. Additionally, director Lee Ji-won, who has been recognized for his meticulous psychological portrayal and high-density directing, challenges his first series direction with this work, raising expectations. The solid narrative crafted by director Lee Ji-won and writer Shin Ye-seul, who intricately designs the flow of desire and power between characters, stimulates curiosity about who will ultimately stand at the top at the end of this massive whirlpool.

#2. Intense Acting Synergy from Trusted Actors!

Relationships entangled with desires of Ju Ji-hoon, Ha Ji-won, Nana, Oh Jung-se, and Cha Joo-young!

The second viewing point that captures the audience's attention is the overwhelming acting synergy created by trusted actors. First, Ju Ji-hoon takes on the role of prosecutor 'Bang Tae-seob', who is rampaging towards the peak of power, showcasing a multi-dimensional character oscillating between cold ambition and human conflict. Ha Ji-won, who was once the top star but now stands in a shaky position, delicately portrays the anxiety and desire of top actress 'Chu Sang-ah', firmly anchoring the narrative. Nana, playing the secret informant 'Hwang Jung-won' of 'Bang Tae-seob', adds tension to the drama with her cold charisma as a character holding numerous secrets while navigating the dark side of power. Oh Jung-se, who stands at the center of the chaebol succession war as 'Kwon Jong-wook', intricately depicts a character entangled in desire and calculation, tightly weaving the conflict structure of the drama. Finally, Cha Joo-young, who reads the flow of all power as 'Lee Yang-mi', reveals her meticulous ambition hidden behind elegance, exuding a strong presence. The intricate relationships of characters with different desires and the intense acting synergy of the actors are expected to elevate the immersion of 〈Climax〉 even further.

#3. "The More You Fall, the Higher You Go, the More You Desire, the More You Reach the Peak"

From intense melodrama to political power struggles, and unpredictable suspense!

The final viewing point is the intense suspense created by the choices of humans that split before desire. 〈Climax〉 digs deep into the psychology of characters swaying between power and love, belief and betrayal, going beyond a simple crime political drama. The collision of desires intensifies as one gets closer to the peak of power, maximizing the tension of the drama. In particular, the relationships of characters entangled in ambition towards power add intense melodramatic tension, further enhancing the density of the story. The constantly shifting relationships and power dynamics, where characters use and betray each other, create unpredictable developments that heighten immersion. The dramatic narrative intertwined with the intensity of political power struggles and emotional waves offers genre-defining entertainment that keeps viewers glued to their screens. Who among them will stand at the top until the end, and what will be the climax of life they will face at that end, raises further curiosity.

The 〈Climax〉 depicting the peak of desire surrounding the highest power in South Korea will premiere today (16th) on Disney+, with new episodes released every Monday and Tuesday thereafter.
