Actor Kim Hee-won transforms into a person with superpowers through ‘High Five’.
‘High Five’ is a comic action film that depicts the story of five people who accidentally gain different superpowers through organ transplants and meet those who covet their powers.
Kim Hee-won left a strong impression with his performance as a vicious villain in the movie ‘The Man from Nowhere’, and has since played characters that cross the line between good and evil in numerous works such as ‘The Villainess’, ‘The Divine Move: The Wrathful’, ‘Pawn’, and ‘Moving’, establishing himself as a ‘trustworthy gem’.He also received love from the public for his friendly charm in the entertainment program ‘House on Wheels’, and showed off his versatility by receiving favorable reviews for his solid directing skills in his directorial debut ‘Lighting Store’.He returns as ‘Yak-seon’, a man with superpowers who has a different charm on the outside and inside in the movie ‘High Five’.
‘Yakseon’ is a meticulous and picky foreman who nags and exhausts the workers at construction sites.He is the most avoided person among his colleagues, but he hides a warmer heart than anyone else behind his stiff speech.After receiving a liver transplant, ‘Yakseon’ was given healing hands and secretly treated workers who got hurt while working with his miraculous powers of curing all diseases.Then, he meets the team ‘High Five’ who received organs and superpowers from the same donor and gets caught up in an unexpected incident.
Kim Hee-won, who returned as a ‘cold on the outside but warm on the inside’ character, expressed his affection for the work, saying, “I liked the part where superpowered characters with human charm appear without pretending to be cool.”
Director Kang Hyung-chul said, “He has played many villain roles, but in reality, he is a very good person.I thought it would be fun to have actor Kim Hee-won play a character whose warm heart clashes with his strict attitude toward others,” raising expectations for Kim Hee-won’s acting that will add to the immersion of the play.
Kim Hee-won’s performance can be seen in the movie ‘High Five’, which will be released in theaters on Friday, May 30th.
