Ryu Seung-ryong Makes a 'Ruthless Decision' for Survival in 'Mr. Kim' Episode 7
Actor Ryu Seung-ryong is set to make a critical decision for his survival in the JTBC weekend drama 'A Story of Mr. Kim Working at a Large Corporation' (shortened to 'Mr. Kim').
In the 7th episode, airing today (15th), a palpable tension begins to build within the factory centered around Kim Nak-su (Ryu Seung-ryong). In the previous episode, Kim Nak-su was pressured by the HR team leader to select employees for layoffs. When he hesitated, the HR team leader urged him to complete the task as a condition for his return to headquarters and heightened anxiety by mentioning a voluntary retirement notice.
After deep contemplation, Kim Nak-su appears with a determined and solemn expression. His uncharacteristically firm demeanor towards the employees freezes the factory atmosphere. As the voluntary retirement notice is posted, employees will also engage in a tense game of cat-and-mouse to avoid the gaze of Kim Nak-su, who is from headquarters.
In the released photos, factory employees are seen fully equipped in safety helmets and workwear, even offering drinks to Kim Nak-su. However, Lee Ju-young (Jung Eun-chae), the foreman who knows the factory's structure inside out, is seriously observing Kim Nak-su's sudden change and monitoring the employees' movements.
Kim Nak-su, holding the key to layoffs, is overwhelmed by the immense pressure, agonizing over the layoff list nightly. Yet, harboring hope for a return to headquarters and ambition for a promotion to executive, he steels his heart and moves forward with the plan. As anticipation mounts for the repercussions of Kim Nak-su's decision, episode 7 of 'Mr. Kim,' where his actions can be witnessed, will broadcast tonight (15th) at 10:40 PM.
Netizens are buzzing about Ryu Seung-ryong's 'ruthless decision,' commenting, "Mr. Kim is finally drawing his sword," "The real story starts now," and "I'm curious how Jung Eun-chae will react to this," expressing high anticipation for the upcoming plot.
