Mercy For None OTT Release Date: When and where to watch SO JI-SUB & Huh Joon-ho's noir action-filled K-drama
Mercy For None OTT Release Date: Brace Yourself, this isn't your regular Korean show. If you thought K-dramas were all love triangles, cute cafe dates, and dreamy soundtracks, think again. On June 6, a storm is coming in the form of Mercy For None, only on Netflix- a gritty, revenge-fueled noir action series that promises to hit you hard and leave no heart unshaken. The drama marks SO JI-SUB's long-awaited return to full-blown action after a whopping 13 years. And he's not alone; powerhouses like Huh Joon-ho, Gong Myoung, Choo Young Woo, and An Kil-kang are joining him, with Cha Seung Won and Lee Jun-hyuk making special appearances. What's the story? So Ji-sub plays Ki-jun, a man who once ruled the underworld but walked away from it literally cutting his own Achilles tendon to escape that world. He's been gone for 11 years. Silent. Invisible. Until his younger brother Ki-seok, once the second-in-command of their crime organisation, turns up dead. Now, Ki-jun is back, and he's not here to cry. He's here to find out who killed his brother and why. No police or courtroom, but just fists, fury, and a baseball bat that does all the talking. Mercy For None's teaser is out now We see Ki-jun standing in a dim alley, surrounded by bodies. Blood on the walls. Bat in hand. Face emotionless. Quick flashes reveal Ki-jun tearing through anyone who dares to stop him - gunfire, brutal face-offs, and strong determination. There's no running this time. Only a cold, calculated climb back into a world he left behind, all for justice. Or maybe revenge. At this point, does it even matter? Meet the cast of Mercy For None Apart from So Ji-sub's brooding return, Mercy For None features some major names from the Korean acting universe, including Huh Joon-ho, Gong Myoung, Choo Young Woo, Tiger Lee, Cho Han-cheul, and the legendary An Kil-kang. A special shoutout to Cha Seung-Won and Lee Jun-hyuk, whose surprise roles already have fans buzzing. With Mercy For None, So Ji-sub reminds us why he's still one of Korea's most bankable action stars. So, will Ki-jun find the truth? Or lose himself all over again? Find out on June 6 only on Netflix.
