Actor Yoon Woo appeared as Seung-taek in the tvN Wednesday-Thursday drama ‘I’ll Give You the Universe’, which premiered yesterday.
With unexaggerated pacing and finely detailed everyday acting, he blended naturally into the narrative, once again proving his strength as an ‘actor who makes you look twice’.
tvN’s new Wednesday-Thursday drama ‘I’ll Give You the Universe’ portrays a chaotic cohabitation romance that ensues when a man and a woman connected as in-laws, whose first meeting went wrong, suddenly end up raising their 20-month-old nephew ‘Uju’.
Seung-taek, played by Yoon Woo, is a figure who loosens the on-set mood and breathes vigor into the story. From the first episode, his performance pinpointed the character’s grain, firmly anchoring the drama’s flow. His natural acting is striking, down to the breath at the end of his lines and the way he handles his gaze.

Even in brief lines and small gestures, he lets the character come through first, steadily steering the tone of ‘I’ll Give You the Universe’.
His fresh look is also a talking point. The grounded styling layered onto his clean-cut impression compellingly completes Seung-taek’s characterization.
