Actor Kim Sang-ho's reliable, must-see acting worked in "Shin's Project" as well.
In the steadily rising tvN Monday-Tuesday drama "Shin's Project" (written by Ban Gi-ri / directed by Shin Kyung-soo / planned by Studio Dragon / produced by Two Frame), Kim Sang-ho, who plays Kim Sang-geun, is raising the show's completeness with a steady presence.
In the drama, the Kim Sang-geun portrayed by Kim Sang-ho is a seasoned chief judge with a remarkable 30 years in the legal profession and a figure respected by other judges. In particular, he is Shin (played by Han Suk-kyu)'s friend and like an older brother, always a reliable supporter who gives him strength.
Kim Sang-geun added interest with an unpredictable development that assigned senior judge Jo Philip (played by Bae Hyun-seong) to the company owner's chicken restaurant on his first day at work, and he drove the narrative by entrusting matters to the company owner so parties could reach an agreement before the trial proceeded.
When Jo Philip asked what kind of person the company owner was, Kim Sang-geun aroused curiosity by giving a meaningful smile and saying, "If I were going to tell you everything, why would I have sent him there?" It was later revealed that Kim Sang-geun's true intention was to teach him to become "a real judge who can see cases from the citizens' perspective, not a shell of a judge with an elite mindset," which added to the lingering impression.
It was revealed not only that Jo Philip had a past in which he cried when he saw Kim Sang-geun hand down stern rulings to past perpetrators, but also that when Kim Sang-geun told him "come back now," Jo Philip replied, "I'll learn for two more months and then return," fueling greater anticipation for the synergy Kim Sang-geun, the company owner and Jo Philip will create.
This time, reviews say Kim Sang-ho's humane side of acting shone through. He warmly portrayed Kim Sang-geun, who acts as the compass that lifts and helps Shin and Jo Philip grow, and he embraced them steadily to bring harmony to the drama. Not only did he deftly handle the character's details, but his blend of humor and emotion made viewers fully immerse themselves in "Shin's Project."
In upcoming developments, Kim Sang-ho's delicate but solid acting and weighty presence are expected to heighten the thrill and aftertaste that "Shin's Project" will deliver. Attention is focused on Kim Sang-ho, who will complete the show's tone and message as a reliable ally and link between Han Suk-kyu and Bae Hyun-seong.
Kim Sang-ho has given viewers confidence with his masterful acting in every work he appears in. Once again meeting expectations with a perfect-fit character, Kim Sang-ho's activities are expected to continue in the remaining episodes.
Meanwhile, the tvN "Shin's Project" featuring Kim Sang-ho airs every Monday and Tuesday at 8:50 p.m.
