Cho Seung Woo Is Back With His Well-Loved Prosecutor Role In “Stranger 2”

A personal favorite K-Drama character of mine, I can’t wait to see Hwang Si Mok and his interaction with Han Yeo Jin when they reprise their roles in Stranger 2 this August.

tvN dropped character stills of the recluse prosecutor, Hwang Si Mok, portrayed by Cho Seung Woo; and three years felt just like yesterday in the photos. Previously, the main poster was also unveiled featuring the main cast of the series’ second installment.

In the first season, Prosecutor Hwang Si Mok was introduced as a cold and distant character. He has lived an apathetic life due to a surgery he had when he was young. His interesting prosecutor-hero role easily charms the audience with his intellect and grit.

Cho Seung Woo’s stoic performance is a feat hard to accomplish, but he pulled it off with flying colors. His moments with perky Detective Han Yeo Jin (Bae Doo Na) who became his only adult friend he is not aware of, is refreshing to watch.

In the released images, Cho Seung Woo channels Prosecutor Hwang’s unchanging lone aura. Determined to continue being a vanguard of justice, his rational view of advancing toward the truth impacts his stand to uphold the role of prosecution. He is also set to be in between the debate over the investigative powers of the police force.

Directed by Park Hyun Seok and written by Lee Soo Yeon, Stranger 2 will air in August via tvN.
