Disney+ held a production presentation for the new original series 'Takryu' (written by Chun Sung-il, directed by Chu Chang-min) at a hotel in Gangnam-gu, Seoul on the morning of the 23rd. The event was attended by Ro Woon, Shin Ye-eun, Park Seo-ham, Park Ji-hwan, Choi Gui-hwa, Kim Dong-won and Choo Chang-min.
Rowoon was very surprised when he mentioned Jang Si-yul's makeup, which he played. Before the makeup test, the director said 'I want to take away the biggest weapon, the coolness. I was waiting in my heart because he said 'cool'. So I waited for the time to dress up and I thought I could act for a long time."
Rowoon is then a person who hides the past. I thought Siyul was a lonely wolf-like character who shouldn't be called by name and had no home to go back to."
"'Takryu' is an action drama about the fate of those who dreamed differently to turn the chaotic world around the Gyeonggang River where all the money and supplies of Joseon gathered and live like a human being. Director Chu Chang-min, who attracted 10 million viewers with the movie 「Gwanghae, Man Who Became King」, chose 'Takryu' as his first series director, and Chun Sung-il, the writer of 'Chuno', is raising expectations as he is in charge of writing a historical drama series for the first time in 14 years. Ro-yoon plays Jang Si-yul, Shin Ye-eun plays Choi Eun, a merchant who leads the top of Joseon, and Park Seo-ham challenges historical dramas by playing Jeong Cheon, a grape official. Park Seo-ham plays Walfa Mudeok as Lee Dol-gae, the center of the corruption of the grape office, and Kim Dong-won plays Wang Hae, a mysterious figure.
'Turbulent' will be released on Disney+ on the 26th.
