Director Lee Byung-hun's Watcha 'Ultimate Weapon Alice' and Actor Lee Byung-hun's Role in Hwang Dong-hyuk's 'K.O. CLUB'

Director Lee Byung-hun's work is drawing attention both in Korea and internationally. His Watcha original drama 'Ultimate Weapon Alice' particularly stood out with its unique blend of school, action, and romance genres, offering fresh entertainment through the story of Alice, a trained killer, and Seo Yeo-reum, a student who enjoys being hit.

'Ultimate Weapon Alice' is an 8-episode series starring Park Se-wan, Song Geon-hee, Kim Sung-oh, and Kim Tae-hoon. It follows Alice, who escapes from a killer training facility and attends high school, and her entanglement with Seo Yeo-reum, who finds comfort in pain. The drama aired on Watcha, with some viewers suggesting it might have achieved greater success if it had been released on Netflix.

Separately, actor Lee Byung-hun is set to appear in Hwang Dong-hyuk's new film 'K.O. CLUB', marking Hwang's return to the big screen after 10 years since his global hit 'Squid Game'. 'K.O. CLUB', an acronym for 'Killing Oldmen Club', explores the conflict between the older and younger generations in a future society where youth can be bought with money, with actor Lee Byung-hun's involvement further heightening anticipation.
