  • Although Disney+’s new poster for Big Bet 2 is a bit lackluster, I am hooked by the action and energy of the newest teaser – or maybe I’m just excited by Sohn Seok-gu (Our Liberation Notes). Along with right-hand Lee Dong-hwi (Glitch), the second season about our casino king Choi Min-shik (In Our Prime) will be continuing its story come February 15. [News1]

According to 10asia's coverage on February 17, Lee Je Hoon will have a role in "Big Bet Season 2". He will portray a cameo role as the 'ace in the hole'. Previously, in "Big Bet Season 1," Jin Seon Gyu, Jung Woong In, and Choi Moo Seong made special appearances to enrich the drama. This coming season of the series, Lee Je Hoon will lead the development of "Big Bet Season 2" more dynamically with his excellent acting and sense.

"Big Bet" tells the story of Cha Moo Sik (Choi Min Sik), a man who became a casino legend in the Philippines who started his final bet as he is involved in a murder case.  Last January, Season 1 ended with 8 episodes, as for its second season it began airing this February 15th.

"Big Bet" was predicted to be successful even before its release because it was the first drama project of director Kang Yoon Sung who helmed the movie "The Outlaws." 

"Big Bet" also stars Choi Min Sik, who returned to acting after 25 years, and Son Seok Koo, who is gaining popularity as a hot actor. In addition, famous actors such as Heo Sung Tae, Lee Dong Hwi, and Hong Ki Joon increase the level of immersion in the work by providing exceptional performances. Immediately after its release, "Big Bet" took first place in the Disney+ TV series category, proving its popularity.

Lee Je Hoon, who will breathe new life into "Big Bet Season 2," also meets viewers expectations with SBS' "Taxi Driver 2". The drama series "Taxi Driver" is a webtoon-based K-drama that took the 4th highest rating for Friday and Saturday dramas.

Choi Min Sik And Son Suk Ku Talk About Working On The Set Of “Big Bet” Season 2

 

Choi Min Sik And Son Suk Ku Talk About Working On The Set Of “Big Bet” Season 2

 

Choi Min Sik and Son Suk Ku have dished on “Big Bet” Season 2!

 

The first season of “Big Bet” told the story of Cha Mu Sik (Choi Min Sik), a man who rose to the top and became the legendary king of the casino in the Philippines even without any previous fortune, connections, or other special privileges. After getting tangled in a murder case, he became faced with the ultimate bet with his life on the line.

 

Choi Min Sik, who returned to the small screen for the first time in 25 years, shared his feelings about filming the series, saying, “For films, you have to condense the story into two hours, but the advantage of a series is that you can tell the story longer. It can show a character’s narrative in great detail. I am satisfied to be able to tell all the stories I wanted to tell.”

 

The actor also expressed his gratitude for attention from global fans as well as the foreign media, saying, “It is fun to be able to communicate with people all over the world through OTT (over-the-top) platforms. I am really happy that Korean dramas are enjoyed by audiences around the world.”

 

Choi Min Sik shared the distinguishing point of the new season of “Big Bet,” saying, “Centering around Cha Mu Sik, the narratives and conflicts of the characters will get even more dense. All conflicts, collisions, anger, and misery are caused by Cha Mu Sik, and his true nature will be unveiled in more detail.”

Son Suk Ku also revealed that he was attracted to his character Oh Seung Hoon, the first “Korean Desk” dispatched to the Philippines. The actor remarked, “[The ‘Big Bet’ series] is very different from the projects I have done so far. It seemed like it would be fun to act in English instead of my mother tongue (Korean) after a while.”

Consisting a total of eight episodes, Season 2 of “Big Bet” airs every Wednesday at 5 p.m. KST.

Even Kim Hee ae is a fan of Son Seok Gu.

 

 

"Goo's sickness" Kim Hee-ae met Son Seok-gu and became a 'sacred virtue'... Boasting a ‘steamy smile’

20230221516741.jpg

 

On the 21st, Kim Hee-ae posted a picture on her social network service (SNS) along with an article saying, "I was fascinated by Goo after watching 'My Liberation Diary' late last summer. I met Goo by chance during filming."

 

In the published photo, Kim Hee-ae meets Son Seok-gu and poses affectionately. Kim Hee-ae and Son Seok-gu's smiles catch the eye.

 

Hee-ae Kim sent a message of support to Seok-gu Son, saying, "At times like this, it's called Seong-deok? It was nice to meet actor Seok-gu Son. She subsequently caught her attention by tagging her with "Mr. Gu's disease."

 

Meanwhile, Kim Hee-ae is about to release the Netflix original 'Queen Maker' this year, and Son Seok-gu is appearing in the Disney+ (plus) original 'Casino 2'.

'Casino', which only revealed the final episode, Choi Min-sik's last choice?!

 

24417711-1333-430e-90a7-b067e6b3fc2a.jpg

 

In episode 7 of Season 2 of Disney+'s original series 'Casino' (Director/Screenplay: Kang Yoon-seong, Production: Arc Media, C-Jes Entertainment, BA Entertainment) released on the 15th (Wednesday), Cha Moo-sik (Choi Min-sik) played Chairman Min (Kim Hong-pa). I found out who was behind the murder.

 

Mu-Sik Cha took revenge despite the dissuades of Big Boss Daniel and his right-hand man, Mu-Sik Cha's best friend, John. Daniel, who noticed Mu-Sik Cha's behavior that crossed the line, called him immediately, and Mu-Sik Cha, who sensed the danger, fled to Korea. In the meantime, Jung-pal (Lee Dong-hwi) and Sang-gu (Hong Ki-jun), who decided to betray him, also started to act, and Inspector Oh Seung-hun (Son Seok-gu), who had been relentlessly pursuing the crime, also returned to the Philippines, and Jin Young-hee (Kim Joo-ryeong), who will provide a clue to the case. )

 

With such unpredictable development and tight build-up, tension is raised in each episode, and 'Casino' season 2, which shows overwhelming topicality and box office power, breaks the record for the highest viewing time as of the first week of release among Disney+ Korean original contents, until the final release. With only one episode left, expectations for the all-time finale are rising, and attention is focused on Cha Moo-sik's choice. He pointed out the problems he had to solve once again.

Disney+ might change their weekly release strategy to all at once release for its original contents, just like its competitors. The hope appears as Kevin Feige announced that Echo eps will be released at once, different with most prev. contents

 

Aside from that, BigBet release strategy also gained a lot of complaints from viewers who demanded the OTT platform to change their release strategy
