Park Min Young's Confidence Man KR locks September 6 release date: Check out plot, character details and more
Confidence Man KR storyline
At the heart of Confidence Man KR lies an action-packed storyline. It centered around three uniquely talented con artists who come together for one daring purpose: to take down villains hiding behind power, wealth, and status.
Each member of the group brings a different skillset, personality, and life story. But what unites them is a shared sense of justice and a natural flair for trickery. Together, they're driven by a desire to expose corrupt figures who have long escaped consequences.
Rather than relying on brute force or the law, the trio uses brains, manipulation, and slick disguises to turn the tables on their targets. With every episode, viewers will witness high-stakes cons that bring comedy, suspense, and a sense of karmic payback.
Park Min Young transforms into genius con artist
In a refreshing twist from her usual romantic roles, Park Min Young takes on the role of Yoon Yi Rang. She's a brilliant con artist whose intelligence ranks in the top 1%, with an IQ of 165. Yi Rang is confident, calculating, and effortlessly charismatic.
But she also operates with a quirky, unpredictable mindset that often surprises even her closest allies. As the leader of the team, she maps out strategies, adjusts plans on the fly, and outsmarts adversaries with her sharp logic and wild creativity.
Park Hee Soon brings veteran smarts to the game
Joining the cast is the ever-reliable Park Hee Soon, who plays James. He's a seasoned con man with a career built on smooth-talking, clever improvisation, and flawless execution. James is witty, humorous, and cunning; a perfect match for the fast-paced world of scams and schemes.
As the experienced member of the crew, he often finds himself mediating between Yi Rang's unpredictable plans and the youthful energy of their youngest teammate.
Joo Jong Hyuk shines as sharp yet charming maknae
Completing the trio is Joo Jong Hyuk as Myeong Gu Ho, the youngest member of the team. Gu Ho is a character full of heart. He's innocent in appearance but sharp when it matters. His natural warmth and charm make him the ideal front for certain cons, while his loyalty to the group adds emotional grounding. Though he often plays the role of the adorable maknae (youngest), Gu Ho proves time and again that he's much more than meets the eye.
Fans eager as September draws closer
The announcement of the September 6 premiere has ignited excitement among drama fans. For viewers looking for something beyond the standard romance or action series, Confidence Man KR offers a refreshing twist.
As the countdown begins, all eyes are now on how Park Min Young and her co-stars will bring these larger-than-life characters to the screen. And if early buzz is anything to go by, Confidence Man KR is poised to be one of the standout dramas of 2025.

The Map That Leads to You star Sofia Wylie under fire for ‘shade' against BLACKPINK, KATSEYE's Sophia gets dragged into row
The red carpet of The Map That Leads to You's premiere recently turned viral for very different reasons than the makers would have expected. Actress Sofia Wylie turned up the heat with the comments for K-pop group BLACKPINK. What was probably meant as praise for the team turned into criticism online, or maybe it was an intended diss. The group's fandom is not taking it well and has also lashed out against KATSEYE member Sophia, who dropped a like on the video where Sofia Wylie was heard saying that the K-pop stars are 'giving nothing' these days. Sofia Wylie goes up against BLACKPINK, here's what happened Talking to MTV, she said, 'KATSEYE is my bae. I love KATSEYE. I watch every one of their videos. They just performed at Lollapalooza. My girls are going crazy. And BLACKPINK, I love you. Even though you're giving us nothing right now, I love you still. Always.' Sofia Wylie's remark about 'giving us nothing' has hit the fans the wrong way. Many are calling it a dig at the group's members' dancing and singing, as well as the overall vibe during the team's ongoing tour, which has been inviting some criticism on the internet. Others are linking it to how the quartet has released only 1 song after a wait of 3 years, and that the American actor probably meant that BLACKPINK had not given back to their fans, instead of it being about their performance. But that is about to change as reports of the singers releasing a new album in November are already making the rounds. It is not known what Sofia Wylie's real intent was, but fans are definitely not happy with her words. On the other hand, KATSEYE's Sophia is said to have liked the video, inviting another wave of criticism from the fans to her Instagram, where they're taking her reaction as an agreement to the diss. Instantly, the younger singer's account was flooded with bad comments and painting it as 'jealousy'. None of the involved artists has spoken about the incident since.

BigHit's new boy band CORTIS reveals the sound advice they recieved from the Bangtan Boys before their debut
If there's one K-pop playbook worth studying, it's BTS's. From their perfectly timed career moves to navigating military enlistment without losing momentum, the Bangtan boys have turned strategy into an art form. And now, BigHit Music is hoping lightning will strike thrice. After the blockbuster success of BTS and TXT, the label is ready to unleash its next powerhouse: CORTIS. CORTIS and BTS Five fresh-faced young boys — Martin, James, Juhoon, Seonghyeon, and Keonho — will be a part of BigHit's first new boy group since TXT's 2019 debut. Each member brings their own creative edge, but all eyes are on 17-year-old leader Martin. The Canadian-Korean prodigy has already made his mark behind the scenes, penning tracks like TXT's Deja Vu, Miracle, and Beautiful Strangers, ENHYPEN's Outside, LE SSERAFIM's Pierrot, and ILLIT's Magnetic. Not bad for someone who hasn't even debuted yet. But what about their interactions with brother group BTS? In an exclusive chat with Rolling Stone, CORTIS revealed that they've had some pretty legendary moments with the Bangtan Boys who took the time to offer some pre-debut wisdom. Sounds exactly like something they would do! 'BTS gave us the advice to do well by the people that you're working with, the staff. And I feel like that's all that matters. To hit a long run, you've got to be good to the people around you. You've got to show love,' said Martin. Juhoon chimed in with another gem from their sunbaes: 'Another piece of advice BTS gave us is that a lot of people may think it's the end once you debut. But actually, the debut is just the beginning, so there's no need to be perfect. Show improvement and keep evolving as you go. That's been helping me a lot for where we are right now in this particular moment in time when I'm just about to debut.' The path toward success CORTIS has already dipped their toes into the scene with their pre-debut MV Go!, which sparked mixed reactions from fans. But the real test is coming soon: their official title track What You Want drops on August 18 at 6 p.m. KST, with an English version featuring American rapper Teezo Touchdown following on August 22.
