Ji Chang-wook's 'The Sculptor City' Hard Carry: Nearing the Climax of Revenge

Actor Ji Chang-wook is heightening the suspense in the Disney+ original series 'The Sculptor City' as he gets closer to unraveling the truth behind the 'sculptor business.'

'The Sculptor City' follows Tae-joong (Ji Chang-wook), who is framed for a crime and imprisoned, only to discover that 'Yo-han' (Doh Kyung-soo) is behind it all. The series depicts his thrilling revenge, and Ji Chang-wook's portrayal of Tae-joong has been widely praised for his seamless execution of high-difficulty action sequences and his nuanced emotional acting.

In the episodes released on the 19th, Tae-joong took a step closer to the reality of the 'sculptor business.' After obtaining information about a new victim from the public defender Kim Sang-rak (Kim Jung-hyun), who had previously set him up, Tae-joong begins a direct pursuit to prevent another victim from falling into the trap.

Ji Chang-wook's performance captivated viewers with his desperate cry of 'What is this sculptor business, tell me!' to Kim Sang-rak, his intelligent use of 'quick delivery' for strategic plays, and his explosive action sequences ranging from hand-to-hand combat to intense bike chases. His 'hard carry' truly illuminated the drama.

The cliffhanger at the end of episode 8, where the true culprit behind the incident that framed Tae-joong is revealed to be Baek Do-kyung (Lee Kwang-soo), left Ji Chang-wook in shock and confusion, further building anticipation for his vengeful pursuit.

'The Sculptor City' has topped the charts in Korea for two consecutive weeks and secured a spot in the worldwide TOP 4 (as of the 17th), demonstrating its immense popularity. Furthermore, the film <Fabricated City (2017)>, set in the same universe, is also experiencing a resurgence on various OTT platforms, marking a 'triple box office success' for Ji Chang-wook following 'The Worst of Evil' and 'Bitch X Road.'

'The Sculptor City' is exclusively released on Disney+ every Wednesday with two episodes per week, totaling 12 episodes.

Korean netizens are reacting enthusiastically, with comments like 'Ji Chang-wook's acting is insane,' 'As expected, an actor you can trust,' 'Can't wait for the next episode,' and 'The story development is the best,' showing their high engagement with the series.
