Actor Shin Jae-hwi made a strong impression as a scene-stealer in the movie "The Black Nuns." Shin Jae-hwi appears as the stuttering psychic Ae-dong, a disciple of Hyo-won (played by Kim Gook-hee), who is a shaman friend of Unia (played by Song Hye-kyo). Ae-dong is a character who cares for Hee-jun (played by Moon Woo-jin), a boy possessed by an evil spirit.

He has been praised for being a perfect match for the character. With his innocent appearance and genuine voice, he conveyed a profound resonance. The highlight was the scene where he beat the drum and recited the incantations, delivering a heartwarming emotion.

Shin Jae-hwi debuted in the 2017 web drama "3 AM Season 2." He possesses a diverse charm. In the Netflix series "All of Us Are Dead," he transformed into a school bully, showcasing his role as a villain. In "Juvenile Justice," he portrayed a court officer, showing a completely different performance. In "Moving," he played the role of Bang Gi-soo, who confronts Kang Hoon (played by Kim Do-hoon), convincingly exploring the variations of his character.

Meanwhile, "The Black Nuns" is a spin-off of "The Priests" (2015). It depicts the struggles of people trying to save a boy possessed by an evil spirit. Instead of priests, nuns perform the exorcism rituals. It has been appreciated as a unique occult film. The collaboration of Catholicism, Korean shamanism, and Western astrology (tarot cards) is considered refreshing. Rather than focusing on the simple horror of spirits, it emphasizes the deep emotions derived from rescue.

"The Black Nuns" was released on the 24th and topped the box office for three consecutive days, surpassing "Hitman 2." According to the integrated computer network of the Korean Film Council, it recorded a cumulative audience of 606,155 by the 26th.
