Actor Lee Ho-jung appeared on JTBC 'Good Boy' as a new villain 'The Devil' and shook the entire play and imprinted an intense presence.
Lee Ho-jung, who appeared in earnest from the 5th episode, caught the attention of viewers with her striking visuals and unique atmosphere. Her demon is a drug dealer who manufactures and distributes new drug candies and a dangerous person who does not hesitate to kill. She enjoys the thrill and acts as a `Chaotic Key' that disturbs police investigations.
The demon is also causing subtle cracks in the emotional line between the characters, such as making fake reports to the police and disguising himself as a witness, and expressing interest in Yoon Dong-ju (Park Bo-gum), causing jealousy of Ji Han-na (Kim So-hyun). In the sixth inning, he disappeared with Ko Man-sik (Heo Sung-tae's daughter), Ko Jung-ah (Choi Myung-bin), adding to the unexpected relationship and question, and faced a reversal of being converted into a suspect with the blood left on his clothes.
At the end of the broadcast, the tension reached its peak with Min Ju-young (Oh Jung-se). The devil, played by Lee Ho-jung, is cooling viewers' spine with a dual aspect that instantly reveals its brutal nature even though it is playing a modest victim costume on the outside.
Lee Ho-jung completely embodied the ambivalence of the character with her unique way of speaking, strange eyes, and ever-changing attitude, completely changing the flow of 'Good Boy'. In particular, the presence that shakes the center of the narrative every time it appears is growing beyond a simple villain to another axis of the story.
Viewers get nervous when the devil comes out", "Lee Ho-jung's acting is so crazy." They are showing enthusiastic responses, raising questions about how the triangular front of the devil, Yoon Dong-ju, and Min Ju-young will be intertwined in the future.
JTBC's Saturday-Sunday drama 'Good Boy' airs every Saturday night at 10:40 p.m. and Sunday at 10:30 p.m. and is released simultaneously worldwide on Amazon Prime Video.
