After a two-year hiatus, Kim Seon Ho is making a highly anticipated return to the film industry with the upcoming action-thriller, The Childe, marking his first foray into the big-screen realm.
In the movie, Kim Seon Ho portrays the character of Gwi Gong Ya/Childe, a relentless pursuer who disrupts the life of Marco (played by Kang Tae Joo), a struggling boxer from the Philippines on a quest to find his father in South Korea.
To provide a sneak peek into the actor’s role, recently released still images from the film offer intriguing glimpses. In one still, Kim Seon Ho is seen pointing a gun at someone while sporting a sinister smile, leaning against a stylish car. His casual demeanor, combined with his elegant attire, exudes a witty charm.
The second still captures a more serious expression as he firmly points his gun, embodying a determined and ruthless nature in his pursuit.
Kim Seon Ho expressed excitement about the movie and working with director Park Hoon Jung.
I’ve always been enjoying director Park Hoon Jung’s projects, so I got excited at the thought of wanting to work with him even before I read the entire script. The story development is speedy and novel, and the character ‘Childe’ is very interesting.
