New Drama '100 Days of Deception' Features Diverse Characters
tvN's upcoming drama '100 Days of Deception' has recently unveiled new stills that highlight its supporting characters. Directed by Yoo In Shik, known for his work on 'Extraordinary Attorney Woo' and the 'Dr. Romantic' series, this period spy romance unfolds over 100 days during the Japanese occupation of Korea.
In the drama, Lee Ki Young takes on the role of Kim Seung Eok, the owner of Joil Textile, the largest textile company in Joseon. He is depicted as Joseon's most prominent pro-Japanese collaborator, who is also a father deeply invested in his daughter Myung Nam's future. However, his ambitions lead him to use her marriage as a means to fulfill his own desires.
Choi Duk Moon portrays Kwak Woon Hak, a member of the anti-Japanese organization Gugukdan. By day, he works as a Korean medicine practitioner at Hansung Korean Medicine Clinic in Jongno, but by night, he engages in activities with Gugukdan. His clinic serves primarily Korean patients who cannot afford treatment, reflecting his modest lifestyle.
Seo Jeong Yeon plays Ryu Gwan Sil, the Korean housekeeper for Sato Shinichi, who has been a long-time caretaker for the Sato family. Known by her Japanese name Yanagi, she provides a comforting presence for Sato Hideo and his younger sister, often being more approachable than their father.
Introducing Key Supporting Characters
Kim Do Hyun appears as Suzuki, an English interpreter at the Japanese Government-General of Korea. His fluency in English, Japanese, and Korean earns him the trust of Sato Shinichi, as he manages interactions with foreign media.
