'Made in Korea': Jung Woo Sung plays a prosecutor who never backs down, even in a crisis

Made in Korea unveils teasers featuring Jung Woo Sung.

Made in Korea is set in the 1970s and follows Baek Ki Tae (Hyun Bin), a man driven by ambition for wealth and power, and prosecutor Jang Gun Young (Jung Woo Sung), who risks everything to stop him. The story depicts the lives of monstrous individuals who came to be from this harsh and chaotic era.

Jung Woo Sung transforms into Prosecutor Jang Gun Yeong of the Busan District Prosecutors' Office. Jang is a man who, in harsh circumstances, clawed his way up to becoming a prosecutor through his grit alone. Behind his hearty laugh lies an almost frightening, unyielding determination. While investigating Baek Gi Tae, he discovers a massive crime cartel.

The poster captures Jung Woo Sung standing alone on a dark, desolate street. His profile, illuminated by a red light, reveals his loneliness and the relentless persistence that drives him. Paired with the text "Deliver me from the power of the dog," Jung Woo Sung's expression encapsulates Jang Gun Young's disposition — a man who will stop at nothing and choose any means necessary to uphold his principles.

The teaser gives a glimpse of Jang Gun Young expressing — "If you want to go up against me, you better be prepared." — a man who does not easily back down even in the face of crisis.

"I am an angry man. And that's also the source of my life," he says, as he lays bare the fury and madness he harbors. Jang's demeanor and temperament place him as the perfect counterpoint to Baek Gi Tae, who seeks to reach the pinnacle of power, straddling the line between good and evil.

Made in Korea will be released on Disney+ in a total of six episodes: two on December 24, two on December 31, and one each on January 7 and January 14.
