2021 was full of incredible webtoon adaptations and in 2022 as well, we have an impressive roster of adaptations coming our way. “Brave Citizen” tells the story of a former hapkido champion, So SiMin (to be played by Shin HyeSun) who encounters the harshness of reality and has to work as a part-time teacher at a regular school. Her only goal now is to become a full-time teacher and have a stable and uneventful life. However, she is once again faced with injustice, harassment, corruption, bullying, and so on and so forth. Despite her attempts at keeping a low profile, she is unable to simply sit back and watch her students suffer.
So SiMin’s primary nemesis is a student named Han SooGang (to be played by Lee JunYoung), who comes from a wealthy and influential family, which allows him to be callous about his actions, physically violent, and emotionally abusive. Han SooGang is a Muay Thai fighter, which makes him an intimidating opponent and a formidable bully. He has no values or morals but there is a reason why he is the way he is. The “attractive villain with a tragic back story” trope best describes Han SooGang’s character. Lee JunYoung is expected to transform into a villain unlike anything we’ve ever seen before.
We got a glimpse of Lee JunYoung as a hardcore villain in “D.P.” and despite his screentime, Lee JunYoung left a lasting impression on viewers. It will be interesting to see how he takes on the role of Han SooGang in “Brave Citizen”. Are you excited for “Brave Citizen”? Share your thoughts with Kpopmap in the comments section down below!
