Uhm Tae Goo is diving into the romance genre with his new role.
JTBC’s upcoming Wednesday-Thursday drama My Sweet Mobster, premiering on June 12, centers on Seo Ji-hwan who ended his past as a gangster boss and returned as the CEO of the social enterprise.
Ji-hwan is a character who travels all over Korea, disbanding organizations and recruiting members who have been released from prison, leading them to new lives. The series is a unique romance story featuring Go Eun-ha (Han Sun Hwa), who will have a playful dynamic relationship with Ji-hwan.
Seo Ji-hwan, portrayed by Uhm Tae Goo, is the CEO of ‘Thirsty Deer’, a meat processing company. Known for his impressive physical presence, he always dresses in black and has a stern, disciplined work ethic. His intense focus on work has led him to suppress his emotions and avoid romantic relationships, leading a solitary life.
“My Sweet Mobster” Acquaints Viewers With Characters of Han Sun Hwa, Uhm Tae Goo and Kwon Yul
Despite his tough exterior, he is gentle at heart, often hiding his true feelings. His genuine nature is waiting to be discovered by someone who can see beyond his stoic facade.
Promotional photos reveal Seo Ji-hwan’s dual nature. In the office, surrounded by similarly dressed men, he exudes a cold, commanding presence. Yet, in a contrasting scene, he is seen playfully swinging on a seesaw in an empty playground at dusk, his blushing cheeks adding a childlike charm.
Viewers are eager to see Ji-hwan’s character unfold—a tough exterior hiding a soft, gentle interior. Uhm Tae Goo is expected to captivate audiences with his nuanced portrayal of a boss who struggles with love but experiences a deeply sweet romantic journey.
