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. Also read: Good Boy first Impression: Don't be fooled by 'Pouty' Park Bo Gum, he's delivering career-best punches After Bloodhounds, The Glory, My Name, Beyond Evil and more, there's a new name in the noir binge club. 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.

Kim Sae-ron's Family Refutes Dating Rumours With K-Pop Idol
Last Updated: Fresh rumours surfaced online claiming that Kim Sae-ron had a relationship with a famous K-pop idol in 2019 and they reunited in 2022. Actress Kim Sae-ron's death shocked many earlier this year, as she passed away at a very young age. After the tragic incident, reports about her past relationships caught attention, especially with actor Kim Soo-hyun. The Queen of Tears star reportedly dated the late actress when she was underage, which triggered controversy. Now, fresh rumours surfaced online claiming that Kim Sae-ron had a relationship with a famous K-pop idol in 2019 and they reunited in 2022. However, a spokesperson for Kim Sae-ron's family quickly dismissed the rumours and said she was serious about her relationship with Kim Soo-hyun. They also explained that Kim Sae-ron was friendly and had many male friends because of her kind personality. Speaking with Hankyung, a representative of the family, said, 'Kim Sae-ron was never a promiscuous person. She was always sincere when meeting people and she was originally an easygoing person with many 'male friends.' I understand that when she dated Kim Soo-hyun, her feelings for him were so deep that she didn't even have time to meet other people. The bereaved family is having a hard time because of distorted reports and YouTubers who are using such reports to indiscriminately spread information. Regardless of whether the content in question is true, the bereaved family is in great pain because of the excessive digging into their private life." In March, Kim Sae-ron's family held a press conference to talk about how they were feeling. Their lawyer, Bu Ji Seok from Law Firm Buyou, explained that the family was going through a very difficult time, both emotionally and physically, because of the nonstop attention. He also shared something unexpected: that the family had not planned to involve Kim Soo-hyun in anything, but they had actually thought about taking legal action against YouTuber Lee Jin-ho for spreading false stories. Bu Ji Seok said, 'The reason for holding this press conference today is to inform you of the difficulties the family is facing and to earnestly request that the criticism directed at them cease. The reason the family initially had no choice but to disclose the fact that Kim Soo Hyun had been in a relationship with the late Kim Sae Ron when she was a minor was to file a lawsuit against YouTuber Lee Jin Ho, who circulated false information, belittled and mocked the late Kim Sae Ron, ultimately driving her to her death." 'However, what the family received in return was Kim Soo Hyun lying that he had never been in a relationship with her. Even after evidence proving their relationship was revealed, he did not offer a single word of apology. Instead, he is now lying again, stating that their relationship only began after she became an adult. Additionally, for reasons unknown, YouTuber Lee Jin Ho and other individuals involved in the case have been recklessly exposing the private life of the late Kim Sae Ron and spreading false information about her," the lawyer added. A month before Kim Sae-ron's family spoke to the media, actor Kim Soo-hyun had attended a press event where he confirmed that he had dated the late actress. However, he clearly said that their relationship did not begin when she was underage. After that, he decided to take legal action against Kim Sae-ron's family and Kim Se-ui, the head of Garosero Research Institute, for spreading false claims about him. First Published:
