[Star Daily News=Reporter Kyu-Jun Hwang] SBS Friday-Saturday drama ‘The Fiery Priest 2’ is cruising while sweeping both ratings and trends, and attention is pouring onto Seo Hyun-Woo, who is making a strong presence as a desire villain.
Seo Hyun-Woo’s mask of coexistence of good and evil and limitless spectrum are cited as his greatest strengths as an actor. In ‘The Fiery Priest 2’, he is also making full use of his given talents to lead the story interestingly. He plays Nam Doo-Hun, the head prosecutor of the southern district drug team who, despite his underprivileged background, achieved rapid promotion, successfully showcasing another acting transformation.
Nam Doo-Hun’s face always has a hint of irritation, and his fierce gaze makes him look even more edgy. Contrary to these aspects, his unexpected twist of drinking a sweet strawberry smoothie brings out brief laughter, but his extraordinary force soon casts tension throughout the drama.
Especially when Nam Doo-Hun joins hands with evil, his presence burns even more intensely. Covering up crimes committed by the child of a notable politician is just the basics, as he backs a drug organization and turns a blind eye to their evil deeds, creating a tense atmosphere. Furthermore, Nam Doo-Hun has officially started walking the villainous path in collaboration with Kim Hong-Sik (played by Sung-Joon).
Nam Doo-Hun, who neither accepts bribes nor drugs, only desires tributes that enable him to grasp and shake the opponent’s weaknesses. As he is a character who can lay out the game in his favor, the tension intensifies. Where the end of his desire and power lies, and what impact the evil cartel centered around him will have on Gudamz, curiosity grows day by day.
Seo Hyun-Woo’s appearance in ‘The Fiery Priest 2’ Episode 5 will be broadcast on the 22nd at 10 PM.
