ORIGINALLY TITLED SAD TROPICS, PARK Hoon-jung’s next, The Childe, will be released this June. The Korean action-noir thriller concerns a struggling boxer—with a Korean father and a Filipino mother—who is being watched and pursued by unknown, vile individuals while visiting Korea in search of his father.
Kim Seon-ho will star as the titular Gwigongja (Nobleman) in the movie, which marks his big-screen debut and his comeback to the scene after his last, the superhit romantic comedy slice-of-life cathartic K-drama Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha (2021).
Kim’s significant stage experience contributes to his incredible authenticity; he is a rare actor who brings composure and polish to every situation. He seems natural and instinctual, even in a challenging role, and was rightfully named Gallup Korea’s Television Actor of the Year for 2021. With The Childe, he certainly returns to the spotlight, ramping up his game.
Based on reports, Kim’s character in the picture has qualities that are the antithesis of what we’ve come to expect from him from his previous efforts. The poster has already piqued my interest. What else have we got to look forward to? Read on.
An All-New Kim Seon-ho
