New promotional stills from the upcoming period drama Made in Korea have offered a deeper look at Hyun Bin’s compelling new character, drawing significant attention from viewers.
Set against the turbulence of the 1970s, the story follows Baek Ki Tae (played by Hyun Bin), a man fiercely driven by the pursuit of wealth and authority. Standing in direct opposition is prosecutor Jang Geon Young (Jung Woo Sung), who is willing to sacrifice everything to stop him. Their confrontation unfolds amid a pivotal national event, creating a charged narrative fueled by ambition and moral conflict.
In the newly released images, Baek Ki Tae appears as a department head within a high-level intelligence organization, operating a mysterious business behind the scenes. Though he sits back in a seemingly relaxed posture, his sharp gaze reveals a cold and calculated presence. When positioned in the stark, gray office environment, he radiates controlled intimidation—clearly a man eyeing the highest ranks of power.
The visuals hint at an intricate psychological struggle among characters whose goals collide and intertwine, setting the stage for a nuanced performance from Hyun Bin.
Made in Korea is scheduled to begin releasing episodes in late December, introducing audiences to an intense and atmospheric tale of power, ambition, and resistance.
