Hong Kyung, who has built an impressive filmography and risen as a major star, plays Kim Tae-jin in Concrete Market (provided/distributed by Lotte Entertainment | produced by Climax Studio, ANDMARQ Studio | opens: Dec. 3 (Wed) | director: Hong Ki-won), delivering another explosive performance that seems to reinvent his face.

The film Concrete Market, opening on Dec. 3 (Wed), is the story of the Hwanggung Market, a marketplace that buys and sells items in the only remaining apartment complex after a major earthquake, and how people begin transactions in their own ways to survive.

Released stills capture the rough side of Tae-jin, who works on the collection team at Hwanggung Market, which has become the sole symbol of power after the major earthquake. Tae-jin, who owes a life debt to Hwanggung Market's top power holder Park Sang-yong, is offered a dangerous transaction by outsider Choi Hee-ro (Lee Jae-in) and will intensely portray the struggle to seize Hwanggung Market. In the process, Hong Kyung is expected to unfold a tense narrative ranging from a loyal subordinate to a rebellious, runaway underside, following the flow of the drama. In particular, attention is focused on what mood and acting details Hong Kyung, who has a varied palette from a benevolent face to a mad one, will use to captivate audiences in Concrete Market.

Hong Kyung, who began drawing attention after winning the Best New Actor award at the 57th Baeksang Arts Awards for his impressive performance in the film Innocence, has built a remarkable filmography up to Concrete Market. From the vicious military senior in D.P. to the anxious inner performance shown in Weak Hero Class 1, from the fresh first love image in Hear Me: Our Summer to recently portraying an elite air force officer three-dimensionally in Good News, he has earned warm praise from audiences. As a hardworking actor who does not shy away from new challenges in each work, such as sign language and three languages, interest is focused on the new face Hong Kyung will show in Concrete Market.
