Actor Oh Chang-seok is building a captivating villainous character in The Woman Who Swallowed the Sun.
Oh Chang-seok plays Kim Seon-jae, head of the legal team at Mingang Distribution, in MBC's daily drama The Woman Who Swallowed the Sun (planning by Jang Jae-hoon, directed by Kim Jin-hyung, written by Seol Kyung-eun, produced by MBC C&I), which airs every weekday at 7:05 p.m., delivering an overwhelmingly strong presence. He has been attracting attention every episode with performances that are one with the character, showcasing refined visuals and a flawless suit fit.
In a recent episode, Seon-jae continued a sharp confrontation with his former lover Jung Lucia (Jang Shin-young). Viewers were enraged when Seon-jae, knowing that Lucia was Baek Seol-hee, used that as leverage to blackmail her. But when Lucia, unbowed, grew close to Moon Tae-gyeong (Seo Ha-joon), Seon-jae sneeringly remarked, "Moon Tae-gyeong is the third man, huh?"
Meanwhile, Seon-jae's keen insight heightened the drama's tension. Suspecting that Stella Jang (Lee Kan-hee) and Lucia were colluding, Seon-jae raided Stella Jang's house and demonstrated his brazen personality by trying to find Lucia hiding inside, increasing viewer immersion.
Moreover, Seon-jae cast doubt on whether the late lover of President Min Gyeong-chae (Son A-jung) and Stella Jang's son were the same person, firing a blunt line at Stella Jang: "David Jung, Korean name Jung Ho-se, is the mother." In the process, Oh Chang-seok perfectly conveyed Seon-jae's vile smile, producing chills and showcasing a presence befitting the "king of daily dramas."
Thus, Oh Chang-seok completes a cold yet alluring villain through detailed expressiveness and eye acting, injecting powerful energy into the unfolding story. Expectations are rising to see how Oh Chang-seok will command living rooms with his performance in upcoming developments.
Oh Chang-seok's masterful acting, which is showing the pinnacle of villainy, is revealed in MBC's daily drama The Woman Who Swallowed the Sun.
