Actress Park Eun-bin has proven once again that she has the ‘face of a thousand’.

Park Eun-bin is a hot topic for returning with an intense acting transformation in Disney+‘s first original medical thriller ‘Hyperknife’ (Director: Kim Jung-hyun/ Screenplay: Kim Sun-hee/ Provided by: Walt Disney Company Korea/ Produced by: CJ ENM Studios, Vlad Studio, Dongpung Co., Ltd.), which was first released on the 19th.

‘Hyperknife’ is a drama about a fierce confrontation between ‘Se-ok’, a promising genius doctor in the past, and her teacher ‘Deok-hee’, who caused her to fall into the abyss. Park Eun-bin plays the role of the shadow doctor ‘Jung Se-ok’ who was driven to the abyss by her respected teacher, and stands at the center of the passionate story with her unique energy.



In episodes 1 and 2 of ‘Hyper Knife’, the present and past of Jung Se-ok and Choi Deok-hee (Seol Kyung-gu) were depicted. Choi Deok-hee, the teacher who brought Jung Se-ok to the bottom, appeared in front of Jung Se-ok, who lives as a pharmacist during the day and a shadow doctor at night, and the conflict between Deok-hee, who wants her to operate on him, and Se-ok, who hates it no matter what, intensified. In the end, Deok-hee begins to block Se-ok’s path again so that he cannot perform illegal surgeries, provoking Se-ok even more, and her emotions also boil over even more. Meanwhile, the twisted and mysterious past of this priest and disciple is gradually being revealed, stimulating curiosity about their hidden narrative and the story that will unfold in the future.

Park Eun-bin, who has taken on new challenges with each work, immersed viewers in this work as well with her unpredictable acting. The sharp, impulsive instincts of the character Se-ok were made more powerful by Park Eun-bin‘s control of tempo, transcending the genre’s characteristics. Above all, she expressed the different emotions with just a glance, such as the madness and desire for the brain and surgery, the anger and hatred toward Deok-hee, the sense of loss when her medical license was revoked, and the discomfort toward those who go against her, drawing admiration. In addition, the rough charisma of ‘Jung Se-ok’, completed with detailed expressions of emotions, speech, and actions, radiates a unique and unparalleled aura that is hard to imagine from Park Eun-bin‘s usual appearance, raising expectations for her acting in ‘Hyperknife’.

Meanwhile, ‘Hyperknife’, which features Park Eun-bin’s shining performance, is released worldwide every Wednesday through Disney+.
