Actor Lee Jun-hyuk reveals two faces.
On the 30th, TVING unveiled a dilemma poster of Seo Dong-jae (played by Lee Jun-hyuk) from the original series "Good or Bad Dongjae" (written by Hwang Ha-jung and Kim Sang-won, directed by Park Gun-ho, and created by Lee Soo-yeon). It captured his two contrasting faces.
Directed by Park Gun-ho, created by Lee Soo-yeon.
First, the poster drew attention with a visual homage to the "Stranger" Season 1 poster. It then portrayed the extreme contrasting atmospheres of Seo Dong-jae. His relaxed smile stood in stark contrast to his dangerously wavering eyes.
Seo Dong-jae is a character who has overcome numerous crises with sharp intuition in understanding cases and experienced survival skills. An insider commented, "He is anxious about his past stigma as a sponsored prosecutor. His opportunistic instincts come alive, starting a dangerous tightrope walk."
Strong phrases followed. Above Seo Dong-jae's dangerously wavering eyes, the catchphrase "Will you cover up the case or take off your clothes?" was added, predicting his internal conflict between justice and desire.
The production team stated, "The unusual incidents reflecting Seo Dong-jae and the appearance of Nam Wan-sung (played by Park Sung-woong), the representative of Ihong Construction, presage another upheaval for Seo Dong-jae. Nam Wan-sung's storm is also on the horizon."
Writers Hwang Ha-jung and Kim Sang-won explained, "Seo Dong-jae stands at multiple crossroads of choices. Depending on his choice, he will oscillate between 'good or bad' Dong-jae. In 'Stranger,' his hidden sides were concealed, but now they will be revealed."
Director Park Gun-ho added, "There will be fun in watching whether Seo Dong-jae is heading towards the right path or still stuck in the past," amplifying the anticipation.
Lee Jun-hyuk said, "Seo Dong-jae is a character with special vitality. Whether you cheer, ridicule, pity, or find thrill in Dong-jae, it doesn't matter. I hope you enjoy watching him in any way you prefer."
Park Sung-woong remarked, "A new character Nam Wan-sung appears, someone Dong-jae has never encountered before. There's a long-standing entangled story between the two. Please join in their beginning where only one can end it."
"Good or Bad Dongjae" is a spin-off of "Stranger." It depicts the fiery survival story of prosecutor Seo Dong-jae who wants to be recognized in the present, escaping from his past as a sponsored prosecutor. A relentless mud fight between him and Nam Wan-sung unfolds.
