Disney+'s original series "The Manipulated" (writer: Oh Sang-ho | directors: Park Shin-woo, Kim Chang-joo | presented by: The Walt Disney Company Korea | produced by: CJ ENM/Studio Dragon | co-produced by: Simplex) released character stills of Lee Kwang-soo as Baek Do-kyung, Johan's VIP who has power and money.
In "The Manipulated," Lee Kwang-soo released character stills as Baek Do-kyung, Johan's VIP who has power and money and will show another charm. "The Manipulated" is an action drama in which Tae-jung (Ji Chang-wook), who had been living an ordinary life, is unjustly caught up in a heinous crime one day and sent to prison, and learns that everything was planned by Johan (Doh Kyung Soo), prompting him to carry out revenge against him.
From the films Pirate: The Goblin Flag and The Accidental Detective: The Return to the dramas Live, Dear My Friends, and No Way Out: The Roulette, Lee Kwang-soo, who shows an endless acting spectrum by embodying any character with his own charm, presents another new transformation through "The Manipulated." Baek Do-kyung is Johan's VIP who has power, money and everything, and he holds an important key to the case involving Tae-jung. The released stills capture Do-kyung's relaxed appearance as the son of a prominent National Assembly member who has everything, as well as a variety of faces including a fishy smile that conveys a sense of mania, capturing attention. Lee Kwang-soo said, "I wanted him to look like someone who makes you feel uncomfortable when you look at him. I tried to make the character feel as uncomfortable as possible to viewers," explaining his efforts to portray an unusual character.
Director Park Shin-woo praised, "The character Do-kyung played by Lee Kwang-soo fits so perfectly that no other actor could possibly come to mind," and writer Oh Sang-ho said, "Lee Kwang-soo is the treasure of "The Manipulated." He has the power to make ordinary lines feel special," offering high praise for Lee Kwang-soo's performance as Baek Do-kyung.
The Manipulated, completed by writer Oh Sang-ho of the "The Good Bad Mother" series with the fiery race of Ji Chang-wook toward revenge, Doh Kyung Soo showing a new face in his first villain role with intense confrontation, the synergy of fresh actors such as Kim Jong-soo, Jo Yoon-soo and Lee Kwang-soo, will release four episodes on Disney+ on Nov. 5 (Wed), then release two episodes weekly thereafter, totaling 12 episodes.
