Actor Choi Hyun-wook is enhancing the signature drama immersion.

Choi Hyun-wook is actively playing the role of Ban Joo-yeon, the head of the strategic planning department at Yongseong Department Store, who hides his inner otaku powers in the tvN Monday-Tuesday drama 'The Guy Is a Black Dragon.' He has thoroughly concealed his hobby as a fan, but he is gradually opening his heart to the only person who knows about it, Baek Soo-jung (played by Moon Ga-young), showing the hallmark of a charming younger man.

In the 6th episode broadcast, Joo-yeon completely forgot about his first kiss with Soo-jung and simply smiled like a child at the fact that he got closer to her. Captivated by Soo-jung's comment that he doesn't see him as a man, he showcased his cute masculinity, and when he heard that Soo-jung was going on a blind date, he subtly felt jealousy, adding a humorous touch.

However, Joo-yeon's happiness did not last long. After his grandmother, the chairwoman of Yongseong Group, remarked, 'I hope there won't be any disappointments, just like before,' he once again became aware of his reality, pushing Soo-jung away and returning as a Deputy Minister with clear boundaries between public and private life. Joo-yeon's icy cold charm peaked at the charity event, and his hurt expression upon seeing that his grandmother did not trust him evoked sympathy. Furthermore, Joo-yeon emitted a tense atmosphere with extreme sensitivity to provocations from other chaebols that scratched his nerves.

In this way, he hid his preferences to appear favorable in front of his grandmother, but showcased the wounded grandson’s appearance through Choi Hyun-wook's expressive eyes and captivating diction. Choi Hyun-wook, who firmly proved his presence with surprising charm in 'The Guy Is a Black Dragon,' expressed his diverse acting skills with a tense posture, suppressing his emotions while being steadfast and sharp.

Meanwhile, 'The Guy Is a Black Dragon,' featuring Choi Hyun-wook, has continuously ranked first in viewership ratings during the same time slot, including cable and general programming, since its premiere, proving its immense popularity. The 6th episode recorded a peak viewership rating of 5.9%, surpassing its own highest rating. 'The Guy Is a Black Dragon' airs every Monday and Tuesday at 8:50 p.m. on tvN.
