The SBS Friday-Saturday drama "Buried Hearts" (written by Lee Myung-hee, directed by Jin Chang-kyu, produced by Studio S, A2Z Entertainment, and Purumir Works) continues to captivate viewers with its unrelenting developments, leading to a hot box office success. Park Hyung-sik, at the core of it, perfectly embodies everything from strategic mind games and emotionally layered performances to charismatic lines, once again proving his prowess as a true "genre predator." This time, we revisited the intensely memorable moments imbued with powerful lines from Seo Dong-joo (played by Park Hyung-sik) that left viewers thrilled in each episode.

# "I will disappear along with the 2 trillion won in my head" (Episode 7)

Seo Dong-joo remained unshaken even in front of the onrushing Yeom Jang-seon (played by Heo Jun-ho). As he snatched the gun from Cheon Gu-ho (played by Joo Yeon-woo) and whispered, "What is this crazy old man babbling about?" while aiming the gun at Yeom Jang-seon’s forehead, the scene created a moment that made viewers hold their breath. The moment Seo Dong-joo, who had lowered the gun, aimed it at his own head and quietly uttered, "I’m tired. Everything's a hassle. I will disappear along with the 2 trillion won in my head," as he attempted to pull the trigger sent chills down viewers’ spines. This marked a point where Park Hyung-sik's restrained yet profound acting shone as he psychologically overwhelmed the formidable Yeom Jang-seon.

# "I will kill you when your life has value worthy of my revenge" (Episode 9)

Conspiring with the elder (played by Choi Kwang-il) and facing Yeom Jang-seon, Seo Dong-joo declared with a cold smile, "This is not reconciliation but a truce. Reconciliation assumes the end of war, but I have no intention of ever ending it." With a chilling gaze that seemed to contain suppressed inner rage, he provocatively remarked, "Well, little by little. I will kill you when your life has value worthy of my revenge," amplifying the suspense of the moment. Although harboring the blade of revenge, Seo Dong-joo's intense demeanor made it impossible for viewers to turn their eyes away from the meticulous counterattack against Yeom Jang-seon.

# "I will utilize that weakness well from now on" (Episode 10)

Return to the Daesang family, Seo Dong-joo coldly rebuked Heo Il-do (played by Lee Hae-Young), who had tried to kill him. "Mr. Heo, you are a would-be murderer who attempted to kill me, Seo Dong-joo, but failed. I will utilize that weakness well from now on," accurately pinpointing Heo Il-do's vulnerabilities. Seo Dong-joo's calm yet sharp warning tightened the noose around Heo Il-do, creating a compelling tension that deeply engaged viewers. He further pressured Heo Il-do with an angered gaze, saying, "If you hadn’t lost your memory, why would I have jumped into the sea to save the one who shot me? Am I wrong, Mr. Heo Il-do?"

In this way, Park Hyung-sik perfectly merges every aspect of Seo Dong-joo into himself at the center of "Buried Hearts," garnering praises of "As expected of Park Hyung-sik." With each episode, Park Hyung-sik's performances gain depth, overwhelming viewers and making them eagerly anticipate the latter half of "Buried Hearts." As Seo Dong-joo's obsession with revenge grows increasingly ruthless, the focus is on what unforgettable moments Park Hyung-sik will create next.
