Mercy For None: 3 reasons you can't skip this Netflix webtoon adaptation serving up Korean noir action with So Ji Sub and Lee Jun Hyuk

Starring the iconic So Ji Sub, Netflix drops another Korean action noir masterclass into its growing K-content slate. The mini-series, based on the Naver webtoon, follows Gi Jun, a former gangster who vanished 11 years ago and now returns to avenge his brother's death. The webtoon (2020–2021) was an instant hit. The show's got all the right hooks, an impressive cast, emotionally-fuelled action, a plot that doesn't play by the rules, raw brawls, and a finale that'll stick with you. Ahead of the premiere, the series teased key details, not to be missed in the series.

Directed by Choi Seong Eun, the series brings together a high-powered lineup, led by So Ji-sub as Ki Jun. His casting is fan-picked. Webtoon loyalists had him in mind for the live-action from day one. The director admitted she was unsure at first, but after meeting him, she said, 'I felt he could carry Gi Jun's emotions. I had the space to create freely, with truly great ingredients.' His character in the series is quiet, limping, intense, and out for blood. You've seen So Ji Sub in I'm Sorry, I Love You and Master's Sun. Lee Jun Hyuk plays Ki Seok, the brother whose mysterious death sets everything off. Heo Joon Ho steps in as a gang boss and father figure to Seok. Gong Myoung brings in heat as the hot-headed heir of a rival gang, and Choo Young Woo slides into the role of a prosecutor who plays clean in public but is all rot underneath. Ahn Kil Kang, Lee Beom Soo, and Jo Han Chul round out the gang ensemble. And then there's Cha Seung-won, a total wildcard. You'll have to binge to find out. Also read: Popular Korean actor caught cheating, forced to quit shows after private photos explode online The unpredictable plot The best part of this genre often lies in its climax and plot twists, and Mercy for None checks both boxes. Ki Jun, who once cut his own Achilles tendon to cripple himself out of the crime world, is now limping back into it. His return is triggered by the shady death of his younger brother. But don't expect flashy, fast-paced action here. The director made it clear, they wanted the pace slow, the movements deliberate. No wasted punches. Just emotion-heavy sequences that keep pressing forward. 'I think it effectively conveys the character's struggle to forge ahead, no matter the odds,' he said. The show holds tight to the cold, sharp tone of the original webtoon, Plaza Wars. Two rival gangs, Ju Un and Bong San, battle for control, with old bosses and next-gen heirs in the mix. It's a world where mercy isn't just rare, it's a weakness. The K-drama has no flashy or stylised actions, with bodies flying in the air. No stylish punches or heroes walking out of explosions. Since action sits at the core, Mercy for None makes sure it's heavy, raw, and bruised. So Ji-sub said he treated fight scenes like dialogue. 'The director told us not to include unnecessary action. He said it would be better not to throw in action just for the sake of it during transitional scenes. When it comes to revenge, are we going to subdue these people or punish them? There's a difference, and we tried to make that distinction,' he told The Korea Herald. The idea was simple: if the emotion doesn't land, the action doesn't matter. So they let the rage, the guilt, the grief do the heavy lifting. Get ready for some intense basement brawls, back alley knife fights, and baseball bats. Mercy for None is streaming on Netflix.

Diddy trial: Combs hired porn stars for 'freak off', witness testifies; alleges rapper flew them cross-country

Sean "Diddy" Combs Sean "Diddy" Combs and his former influencer partner hired two male porn stars, who were flown across the country for 'Freak Off' referring to sex parties, according to testimony in a Manhattan court on Friday. In the federal sex-trafficking and racketeering trial, an anonymous witness, identified as "Jane," informed the jury that she contacted the performers separately to join the couple's 'freak offs,' what she termed "hotel nights" during late 2021 and early 2022. She explained that the Bad Boys Records founder, whom she dated for three years until his arrest in September 2024, was attracted to the performers after viewing their content, New York Post reported. She described reaching out to "Cabral" and "Antoine" via Instagram, once whilst under the influence of ecstasy. She detailed their viewing of Cabral's content and subsequent discussions about his physical attributes. 'We watched a few of Cabral's videos back-to-back and we just started talking about Cabral and his size and everything' Jane said during Combs' federal sex-trafficking and racketeering trial. The encounters involved intimate activities, with Jane performing whilst Combs observed. Subsequently, she engaged "Antoine" multiple times for similar arrangements, though the compensation details weren't disclosed. These activities were performed to gain Combs' approval, later evolving into virtual interactions. She stated that Combs requested explicit imagery from the performers. These encounters are crucial to the prosecution's case against the 55-year-old Combs, who faces potential life imprisonment if found guilty of the charges he denies. Jane's previous testimony detailed alleged abuse and coerced intimate encounters. She stated these sessions lasted between 24 to 30 hours from May 2021 to October 2023. The anonymous social media personality is expected to continue testifying for approximately five more days as the trial continues into its fifth week.
