Actor Oh Seung-hoon has become the center of attention as he moves across dramas, theater, and variety shows.
In the ENA Monday-Tuesday drama ‘Climax’, which is drawing intense attention, and the steady-selling play ‘Orphans’, Oh Seung-hoon portrays characters of contrasting natures, leaving a weighty presence. This article looks at his activities, which have captivated the public with an unforgettable, distinctive performance.
In the ENA Monday-Tuesday drama ‘Climax’, he takes on the role of Choi Ji-ho, the operator of a cyber wrecker video channel, bearing responsibility for the tension amid the whirlwind plot. As a key player who maps out the moves to corner the couple Bang Tae-seop (played by Ju Ji-hoon) and Chu Sang-ah (played by Ha Ji-won), he richly shaped the character through a chilly aura and a dry gaze. In particular, through seamless coordination with Lee Yang-mi (played by Cha Joo-young), he raised immersion in the drama by voicing, in a cynical tone, the distorted conviction and ambition that he can steer the world in the direction he wants.
On stage, he shows a completely different side. In the play ‘Orphans’, which opened on the 10th of last month, he plays Treat, the older brother who tries to protect his younger brother Philip from the world. He may display rough violence so as not to be defeated by the world, but he captured the complex inner life of the character, which actually carries wounds and a sense of lack, with finely tuned emotional beats. In addition, he not only delivered lively back-and-forth with Philip through his characteristically brisk line delivery and solid projection, but also conveyed with his whole body the image of finally collapsing as he is comforted by Harold, leaving a resonant ache. With a wide-ranging performance that spans from razor-sharp charisma to untainted innocence, he also drew rounds of applause from the audience.
