The main trailer unfolds with the opulent mansion of the Hwain Group family, introducing its affluent members. Seo Do Yoon, clad in police attire, is shown alongside his colleague. However, the mood swiftly darkens as the scene transitions to Seo Do Yoon and his friend investigating a case, only for his friend to be suddenly attacked and stabbed by an unknown assailant. Seo Do Yoon’s anguished cry of “Joo Hyuk!” pierces through, setting a gripping tone for the trailer.

The teaser concludes with Seo Do Yoon’s poignant declaration, “That assailant is in this house,” leaving viewers eagerly anticipating the unfolding drama.

Disney+ has unveiled a new poster for its upcoming drama “Red Swan”!

“Red Swan” will tell the story of Oh Wan Soo (Kim Ha Neul), a former golfer who enters high society when she marries the heir of Hwain Group. After her life is threatened due to a fierce battle over succession, Wan Soo comes face-to-face with the Hwain family’s secret due to her bodyguard Seo Do Yoon (Rain).

The newly released poster hints at the dangerous relationship that will form between Wan Soo and former police officer Do Yoon, who holds her in his arms. The fierce look in Do Yoon’s eyes as he embraces Wan Soo hints at his determination to protect her, and the injuries on his face and hands reveal that he isn’t afraid of getting hurt in the process.

Meanwhile, even though Wan Soo looks fearful, there is a steadiness to her gaze that suggests she plans to stick to her convictions—no matter what danger comes her way.

The poster’s caption highlights the precarious nature of their relationship, reading, “They can’t love one another, but they also can’t be apart.”

Rain stands by Kim Haneul in Disney+’s Red Swan

by tccolb

 

Waltzing us into Disney+’s upcoming action-melo Red Swan, the first teaser follows leads Kim Haneul (Nothing Uncovered) and Rain (Ghost Doctor) as they’re sunk into the mysteries surrounding the ~illustrious~ Hwa-in Group.

Casting a veneer of grandeur and prestige, the opening sequence is a clear juxtaposition of our chaebol family’s fancy life and the secretive shady dealings that helped them secure their wealth. This leads us to our revenge-minded hero Seo Do-yoon (Rain), a skilled former police officer who witnesses his friend and partner cop Joo-hyuk getting killed.

 

However, the looming danger has a target on Oh Wan-soo (Kim Haneul) as well, giving Do-yoon the means to enter Hwa-in as Wan-soo’s personal bodyguard. Speaking for the audience, Do-yoon asks, “What kind of people live here exactly?” We then learn that our once pro golfer heroine is the chairwoman of a charity – the Now Foundation – and is married to the Hwa-in heir Jung Kyeo-woon (You’re Too Much).

 

The fierce Seo Yi-sook (Knight Flower) is the current head of the Hwa-in Group, who is informed by lawyer Yoon Je-moon (Nothing Uncovered) about Do-yoon’s connection to Joo-hyuk. It is here that we learn that the latter died while investigating the death of Hwa-in’s former president. What a coincidence.

For now, though, Do-yoon is preoccupied with protecting a skeptical Wan-soo, explaining that, “Someone tried to kill you. They failed. The person is a professional. If it was me, I would try again.” Our hero also realizes that the culprit has their eyes on Wan-soo’s Now Foundation, which acts as a front for the conglomerate’s slush funds.

As Do-yoon digs deeper, it’s no surprise that there are sleazy secrets hiding behind every corner in Hwa-in and when Wan-soo tries to take a stand, President Park (Seo Yi-sook) lashes out. But Wan-soo does have support from Do-yoon, believing that whoever tried to kill her is the same person who killed Joo-hyuk.

In the final sequence, President Park ruthlessly decides that, “They wield the foundation. If they won’t leave by dying, then we can push them out by killing them.” At the same time, Do-yoon resolves to ensure justice is served, declaring as the teaser ends, “Just wait, I’m going to make sure that they’re punished. The culprit is in this household.”

Directed by PD Park Hong-kyoon (Hwayugi) with scripts penned by Choi Yoon-jung, Disney+’s Red Swan will be launching on July 3.

He asks her if she’s unhappy, and though she answers in the negative, her expression suggests otherwise. With her life in danger, Wan-soo has no one to trust, but that might change now that Do-yoon has entered the picture and is set on protecting her.

 

 

Do-yoon, though, isn’t risking his life for nothing, and his action teaser reveals his ulterior motives for entering the walls of Hwa-in Group. After witnessing the death of his partner while investing chaebol corruption, he vows to uncover what happened, but becoming a bodyguard may pose more danger than expected. Snipers, assassins, and exploding cars await Do-yoon at his new job, but this is only the beginning for our hero.

At the center of all this is Wan-soo who, for reasons unknown, is being targeted. The only one able to save her is Do-yoon, but Wan-soo is unconvinced that someone — especially her family — would hire an assassin to get rid of her. She asks for evidence to back the bold claim, but from the snippets we see of her life, it’s clear that everyone is suspect.

 

Enter Hwa-in Group — our hero’s target and the cause of our heroine’s problems. At the top is Seo Yi-sook (Knight Flower) as President Park Mi-ran. She launders millions without blinking an eye and buys people’s lives like breathing air. The most likely culprit behind Wan-soo’s current predicament, President Park is more than capable of ordering a hit on someone, and from the way she chucks money at Wan-soo, she clearly treats her daughter-in-law with contempt.

Next in line is Wan-soo’s husband and Hwa-in heir Kim Yong-gook played by Jung Kyeo-woon (You’re Too Much). He wants nothing more than to take over the family business and seems ready to do anything to achieve that goal. Yong-gook maintains a loving relationship with Wan-soo for the cameras, but behind closed doors, his demeanor turns sinister.

 

Adding to the list of suspects are lawyer Yoon Je-moon (Nothing Uncovered) who seems aware of the happenings within Hwa-in and the ambitious Ki Eun-se who wishes to replace Wan-soo as the face of the group. Of course, there’s no evidence to implicate anyone, and if our heroes want to unmask the culprit, they’ll need to figure out their motive first.

Directed by PD Park Hong-kyoon (Hwayugi) and written by Choi Yoon-jung, Disney+’s Red Swan premieres July 3 and is slated for ten episodes.

Kim Haneul and Rain fight for a better world in Red Swan

by tccolb

 

Disney+ has been generously dishing out promos for the action-melo Red Swan, readying us for the angst-ridden chaebol battles in new character posters and a long teaser this week. Like children in a playground, it’s a squabbling war over what’s mine versus yours, but as Kim Haneul (Nothing Uncovered) and Rain (Ghost Doctor) experience firsthand, the stakes – and consequences – are significantly scarier when our power-hungry players also have secrets to hide.

Opening on our heroine in the teaser, Oh Wan-soo (Kim Haneul) proudly introduces herself as South Korea’s goodwill ambassador and chairwoman of a charity foundation. As a former pro-golfer and wife to the Hwa-in Group’s heir, Wan-soo’s fame and public image is marketed as the face of the conglomerate.

 

Despite being used like a trophy wife, though, Wan-soo is genuine in her pursuit to do good and she’s lauded by the industry for her international business accomplishments. This prompts Seo Yi-sook’s (Knight Flower) President Park Mi-ran to admonish Wan-soo for overstepping, saying, “This isn’t your work to do.” But our heroine firmly defends her stance, stating, “This is my work. I’m going to fight until the end for a better world.”

Flipping on the ~dramatic~ action switch, Wan-soo’s new bodyguard and ex-cop Seo Do-yoon (Rain) next enters the scene, whose real reason for entering Hwa-in is to investigate his friend’s death and sniff out the murderer. Convinced that this same person is now out for Wan-soo’s blood, Do-yoon warns her not to trust others while also vowing to protect her.

Indeed, Wan-soo’s husband Kim Yong-gook – played by Jung Kyeo-woon (You’re Too Much) – is one such distrustful slimeball who claims, “It’s not that I’m not able, I’m just not responsible. Isn’t it natural that I’m like this when I’ve never had to take responsibility for anything in my whole life?” Although he professes to love his wife, he alarmingly yells that she’s “his” and is angered by Wan-soo’s indifference when he’s caught cheating.

President Park is prone to tantrums as well, declaring Hwa-in as “hers” like a toy that can’t be shared. The people around her are calculatingly treated like playthings as well, easily thrown away when they no longer serve her amusement. But while she is the one giving the orders, it falls to Yoon Je-moon (Nothing Uncovered) playing lawyer Han Sang-il to carry them out. It’s unclear how much he’ll dirty his hands, as he does deflect when asked about murder. But he’s clearly displeased by Do-yoon’s presence and the suspicious sequence suggests that Sang-il is at least connected to the culprit Do-yoon is chasing.

Adding fuel to the fire… er… figuratively but maybe literally as well, Ki Eun-se’s (Now We Are Breaking Up) character Jang Tae-ra is determined to upend Wan-soo’s life and make it hers. She certainly is something, having the gall to demand that Wan-soo get divorced. What our heroine should do is a different discussion, but it is a little satisfying to hear Tae-ra being told to stay a concubine, followed by President Park’s scream for Tae-ra to scram.

As the teaser comes to a close, we watch as Wan-soo finally lets her guard down with our hero, admitting that, “My marriage was already in ruins. Since a long time ago. This place is hell.” Do-yoon then leaves us with the question of what Wan-soo is trying to protect and whether it’s worth risking her life, and Wan-soo reveals her resolve to stand by her charity foundation.

Helmed by PD Park Hong-kyoon (Hwayugi) with scripts written by Choi Yoon-jung, Disney+’s Red Swan will be premiering next week on July 3.
