Actor Oh Chang-seok is commanding the flow of the drama with a chilling villain role in "The Woman Who Swallowed the Sun."
MBC's daily drama "The Woman Who Swallowed the Sun" (planned by Jang Jae-hoon, directed by Kim Jin-hyung, written by Seol Kyung-eun) depicts the desperate revenge of a woman standing against a chaebol in the name of her only daughter in a world where victims become perpetrators.
Oh Chang-seok is causing viewer anger in the role of Kim Seon-jae, who coldly abandoned his pregnant lover for ambition. In a recent broadcast, Seon-jae threatened Baek Seol-hee (played by Jang Shin-young), the mother of the victim of the assault case involving Min Se-ri (played by Park Seo-yeon), not to provoke Mingang Distribution. His cold remarks revealed the true nature of Seon-jae, who has succumbed to power.
Seon-jae was anxious about whether Baek Mi-soo (played by Lee Ru-da) was his blood relative. Even after hearing Seol-hee's firm response that Mi-soo was not his child, he could not shake off his anxiety and expressed his anger: "She can't really be my daughter. Whether she is or not, it must not be known to the world. Why did it have to be entangled with Baek Seol-hee?"
Meanwhile, the scene where Seon-jae informs Seol-hee of Mi-soo's death had viewers on the edge of their seats. After Mi-soo made an extreme choice at Mingang Distribution, Seon-jae exhibited his villainous traits by trying to silence employees with threats of a blacklist and legal responsibility.
Seon-jae's confrontational stance against Moon Tae-kyung (played by Seo Ha-joon), who joined Mingang Distribution's new business, also provided intense immersion. In a sharp nerve battle with Tae-kyung, Seon-jae expressed his distinct ambition by saying, "You never know, you might become part of the (Mingang Distribution) family."
Oh Chang-seok left a strong impression on viewers with his cold charisma and emotional expression. Each scene he appeared in created a tense atmosphere, embedding a chilling presence and writing a new history for villains. Notably, his performance, which conveys emotions with just a gaze while choosing his words carefully, amplified the tension of the drama and enhanced immersion. As expectations for Oh Chang-seok's acting continue to rise, curiosity grows about what kind of character Kim Seon-jae will ultimately be.
