The round where Kim Min-seok and Lee Hyun-wook’s lives are at stake begins.

The production team of the TVING original series ‘Shark: The Storm’ (directed by Kim Gun, written by Min Ji)released the main trailer and special poster containing the thrilling battle between Cha Woo-sol(played by Kim Min-seok)and Hyun Woo-yong(played by Lee Hyun-wook)on the 30th.


‘Shark: The Beginning’, released in 2021, is a work that garnered attention as Tving’s first original movie based on a legendary action webtoon.It will be revived as a 6-part series after 4 years of release.’Shark: The Storm’ is a real survival action film about a stormy showdown between Cha Woo-sol, who is training to become a mixed martial arts fighter after being released from prison, and the evil villain Hyun Woo-yong(played by Lee Hyun-wook).Cha Woo-sol, who had to fight to live, overcomes his fear and limitations and grows to the next level, and now desperately confronts a new ‘evil’ to protect those precious to him.The thrilling action and exciting impact in the expanded worldview are expected to provide the ultimate catharsis.

The main teaser video that was released is hot and fast from the beginning.Cha Woo-sol, who has grown from a weak boy, is determined to become a martial arts fighter.However, Jeong Do-hyeon(played by Wi Ha-joon)has a premonition that since Cha Woo-sol has defeated Bae Seok-chan(played by Jeong Won-chang), bugs will swarm him.The ominous premonition is right on the mark.Hyun Woo-yong, the ‘villain among villains’, appears in front of Cha Woo-sol.


Hyun Woo-yong is not only brutal on the ring, but also more brutal off the ring.When asked, “Why on earth are you doing this?” Hyun Woo-yong provokes with a single line, “I’m not having fun, Woo-sol.” However, the activities of the ‘Woo-sol family’ opposing Hyun Woo-yong are also considerable.Lee Won-jun(played by Bae Myung-jin), Han Seong-yong(played by Lee Jung-hyun), and Jeong Sang-hyeop(played by Park Jin), who started out as cellmates but have since become true comrades, also join in the fierce battle.A life-threatening confrontation continues, and Cha Woo-sol and Hyun Woo-yong finally face off for real.The two of them launch a powerful punch at each other.The action, which has become as powerful as the expanded worldview, is the reason to look forward to ‘Shark: The Storm.’ Kim Min-seok and Lee Hyun-wook captivate viewers with their upgraded action synergy.


The special poster released on this day also adds to the anticipation for the stormy showdown that will follow.Following the launch poster that emphasized the intense gaze, the appearances of Kim Min-seok and Lee Hyun-wook revealing their muscular bodies catch the eye.Kim Min-seok, staring beyond the camera with traces of a fierce fight, is like a fierce shark itself.Lee Hyun-wook, who is engulfed in a world of darkness, also increases the tension with his murderous gaze.The shark and the storm that have come face to face, and the heated showdown between them stimulates anticipation.

‘Shark: The Storm’ will be released in full on Tving on May 15th.
