 'ONE High School Heroes' Kim Do-wan, fight architect Yoon-ki transformed intensely



Actor Kim Do-wan caught the attention of viewers by challenging intense character transformation through the webtoon's original high school action drama 'ONE: High School Heroes'.

Wave original drama 'ONE: High School Heroes', based on the popular webtoon 'ONE', which accumulated 65 million views, is drawing hot attention as soon as it was first released on May 30. The work tells the story of Uigyeom (Lee Jung-ha), the top student in the school who suffered from his father's oppression, and Yoongi (Kim Do-wan), who saw through his hidden fighting skills, forming a High School Heroes together to explode pent-up anger and overturn the school violence ranking. Kim Do-wan played the role of 'Kang Yoon-ki' in the play, playing an axis of the play, increasing the degree of immersion in the play.

In the first to fourth episodes released, Yoongi saw Uigyeom, a transfer student, fighting and instantly saw through his hidden fighting skills. Afterwards, Yoongi continued to chase Uigyeom regardless of his attitude that he was bothered, teaching him fighting skills, and protecting him even when Uigyeom was in a difficult situation with his father, gradually getting closer.




In particular, in the scene where I visited Ji-sung (Yoon Hyun-soo), who was in a coma, with a deep, deep expression that was different from the previous one, "Stop getting up now", "I met someone just like you", raising the curiosity about Yoongi's past. In the match against third-year Sung Wook (Lee Chan-hyung), Yoongi, who had not been directly involved in designing the fight, showed full-fledged action for the first time and overpowered Sung Wook, giving viewers a thrilling pleasure.

At the end of the fourth episode, Yoongi and Uigyeom formed a masked 'High School Heroes', and it was predicted that the school violence perpetrators would be educated in earnest. Expectations for the exhilarating revenge play between the two have risen to the fullest in the future.

Kim Do-wan drew Yoongi's character more lively with his slick facial expression and humorous charm. The appearance of 'Yuigyeom' contrary to the calm 'Yuigyeom' evoked the atmosphere of the work and revitalized the play. In particular, Kim Do-wan's smooth movement in the sleek action scene increased the completeness of the work and maximized the viewers' immersion.




At the production presentation held earlier, Kim Do-wan said, "I hope you will think that Kim Do-wan has such a sharp and cool side through this work." he once said. In this work, he demonstrated the potential of 'Trust and treasure ' by literally performing in a new color.
