Actor Dang Hyun-seok imprinted the strong villain's presence through "Judge Lee Han-young."
In the 6th to 8th episodes of MBC's Friday-Saturday drama "Judge Lee Han-young" (played by Kim Kwang-min, directed by Lee Jae-jin and Park Mi-yeon), which aired on the 17th, 23rd and 24th, Dang Hyun-seok played the role of Chun Hak-soo, a loyal member of the former gang leader and head of the district office.
"Judge Lee Han-young" is a return-to-justice drama in which Lee Han-young, a deep-rooted judge who returned to 10 years ago after living as a slave at a large law firm, punishes evil through a new choice. Chun Hak-soo, played by Dang Hyun-seok, is a key figure in the five-bok faction, and is one of the obstacles that Lee Han-young (Jisung), who returned, must overcome in the process of realizing justice.
In the play, Cheon Hak-soo is a person who cannot be found guilty, and he thoroughly ignores human dignity and does not hesitate to do anything dangerous only for Chu Yong-jin. Dang Hyun-seok brought the character to life by convincingly portraying this cold-blooded aspect with dense acting. In particular, the scene of visiting Heo Dong-ki (played by Shin Hyun-jong), the bereaved family of the sinkhole disaster, throwing a bundle of money and spouting, "I died well," culminated in immoral provocations and caused viewers' anger.
In addition, in the tense confrontation with Lee Han-young and Kwak Soon-won (Park Gun-il), Dang Hyun-seok served as a key axis to raise the tension of the play. Even at the moment before the final judgment, he kept his head upright and maintained an attitude of human water until the end, revealing the naked face of the villain.
Dang Hyun-seok completed a three-dimensional villain role by delicately melting the complex feelings of distorted loyalty and dedication with Chu Yong-jin, who has accumulated over a long time. The action without hesitation, acting with restrained expressions, and the cruelty and fishy smile behind the expressionless face further increased the immersion of the play.
"When I was cast in 'Judge Lee Han-young', I still vividly remember my excitement at the thought of being able to be with my seniors in a good work," Dang Hyun-seok said through his agency Golden Moon Entertainman. "I thought a lot about it while preparing for a character named Cheon Hak-soo and wanted to do better, and I wonder how it would have been delivered to the viewers."
"There are still many shortcomings, but I will do my best to become an actor who can entertain more people in the future. We ask for your support and interest," he added.
Meanwhile, Dang Hyun-seok, who previously made a mark through the Disney+ drama "The Mall of Killers," proved his solid acting spectrum once again through "Judge Lee Han-young."
