Actor Lee Seo-hwan is gaining attention for the Netflix series ‘Squid Game’ Season 2. Lee Seo-hwan takes on the role of Park Jung-bae, a friend of Seong Gi-hun (played by Lee Jung-jae).

He continues to play the same character from the previous season. His presence has grown significantly. In Season 1, his screen time was minimal, appearing briefly as a friend gambling on horse races with Gi-hun.

This time, it’s different. Due to business failure and divorce, he participates in the Squid Game. He unexpectedly meets Gi-hun at a unique location and functions as an ally. His extensive acting experience was evident.

Lee Seo-hwan devoted effort to even fleeting scenes, maintaining intense tension with method acting. He debuted in 2004 with the musical ‘Hunchback of Notre Dame’ and has appeared in dramas like ‘Lost,’ ‘The Devil Judge,’ films such as ‘Handsome Guys,’ and ‘The Boys.’

His agency requests, “Please watch Lee Seo-hwan’s journey as he challenges himself in musicals, dramas, movies, and singing as an ‘all-rounder.’”
