Actor Seo Hyun-woo continues his unstoppable momentum by joining director Yoon Jong-bin's new Netflix film 'Ordinary People'.

The Netflix film 'Ordinary People' tells the story of Roh Tae-woo, the second-in-command who wears the mask of an 'ordinary person' while standing beside the absolute ruler Chun Doo-hwan, who holds unchecked power, and the people surrounding him. Director Yoon Jong-bin, known for sharply exposing the hidden sides of modern history through films such as 'War of the Arrogant', 'The Spy', and 'Suri Nam', is directing the project, which has drawn high expectations since the production stage.

In this film, Seo Hyun-woo plays Park Cheol-woong, a public prosecutor at the Seoul District Prosecutors' Office and Roh Tae-woo's aide. Through his signature solid and captivating acting, he is expected to vividly portray the aide at the core of power during a turbulent era, maximizing the film's immersion. Seo Hyun-woo, who previously played Jeon Doo-hyuk, a character inspired by Chun Doo-hwan, in the 2020 film 'The Managers of Namsan', is expected to deliver a compelling performance in 'Ordinary People'.

Recently, Seo Hyun-woo has been receiving simultaneous acclaim from both the public and critics, showcasing his unique presence. He perfectly embodied a powerful villain prosecutor character in the popular ENA drama 'Honor: Their Courtroom', earning praise as a 'legendary villain', and later made a special appearance in ENA's 'Climax', demonstrating a radical transformation as a top-tier producer and proving his chameleon-like versatility.

Especially, this film has gathered expectations with a lineup of renowned acting veterans including Son Seok-gu (as Roh Tae-woo), Ha Jung-woo (as Chun Doo-hwan), Ji Chang-wook (as Heo Hak-sung), and Hyun Bong-sik (as Jeong Ho-joong). Amidst this ensemble of formidable actors, Seo Hyun-woo is expected to reach another peak in his acting career by completing his unique character, Park Cheol-woong.

Meanwhile, the film 'Ordinary People' is scheduled to be released globally exclusively through Netflix.
