Kang Hoon X Park Joo-hyun, who took first place in Disney, caught all the suspense and emotion lines
LG Uplus STUDIO X+U's mid-form drama 「The Hunter with the Mess」 ranked first in the overall Disney Plus content a day after its release.

According to FlixPatrol, a global OTT viewing ranking website, as of the 17th, 'The Hunter with the Mess' is instantly at the top of the domestic Disney+ ranking and is causing a strong repercussion.

The drama, which drastically broke through the limits of the medical thriller genre, is captivating viewers with its unconventional setting, explosive development, and unpredictable narrative. In particular, in the second episode, Oh Min-ho (Ryu Hae-joon), a junior of Seo Se-hyun (Park Joo-hyun), went missing after being attacked by an unidentified person, raising tensions with Se-hyun finding clues that seemed to be connected to the past and falling into confusion.




In the third episode, which was released on the 18th, Se-hyun's agony, which was shaken under the past nightmare and the present pressure, unfolded in earnest. Faced with familiar trauma, Se-hyun faces a crisis amid conflict with her bosses, pressure on events, and internal doubts. However, detective Jeong Jung-hyun (Kang Hoon) quietly gives his hand to him. Chung's warm gaze, in contrast to the cold Se-hyun, amplifies expectations for a change in their relationship.

'The Hunter with the Mess' intersects the protagonist's inner pain and the criminal drama suspense that solves the case, condensing the extreme immersion within the 20-minute episode. In particular, it is said that the story density has become stronger as the unidentified murder case and the emotional line between the characters are intertwined.

Meanwhile 'The Hunter with the Mess' is released every week on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursdays U+tv and U+Mobiletv, and Disney+.
