A deadly game of biowarfare is about to explode in The Tyrant, a brand new Korean series hitting Disney+ on August 14th.
This high-stakes thriller throws us into a world where rogue Korean scientists cook up a super-virus, “The Tyrant Project,” aiming to make their nation a global powerhouse. But before they can unleash their scientific marvel, Uncle Sam gets wind of it and demands all the samples. Talk about a wrench in the plans!
Things go south faster than a Seoul subway at rush hour when a covert exchange between Korean and US agents goes belly up. Suddenly, everyone’s scrambling for the stolen virus, each side with their agenda. Will Korea use it to rise as a superpower? Will the US contain it at any cost?
Get ready for an epic clash between assassins, mercenaries, and government agents, all brilliantly brought to life by a star-studded cast. Jo Yoon Su, the formidable force from True Beauty, takes on the role of the vengeful assassin Chae Jagyeong. Cha Seung Won, known for his work in Our Blues, chills us as the cold-blooded mercenary Lim Sang. Kim Seon Ho, the heartthrob from Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha, sheds his sweet persona to become Director Choe, the mastermind behind the Korean project. And Kim Kang Woo rounds out the cast as the tenacious US agent Paul.
This isn’t just your average action flick, folks. The Tyrant comes from the mind of Park Hoonjung, the visionary director behind New World and I Saw the Devil, so you know you’re in for a thrilling ride with plenty of twists and turns.
