A number of K-Dramas are currently following the trend of adapting webtoons. Despite the criticism of webtoon-based works as if taking the safe path without risk compared to original content, fans still want to see the drama version.
Drama and film adaptations of webtoons have proven their potential by achieving great success. The successful webtoon adaptation works include ” Along with the Gods “, ” Sweet Home “, ” DP “, ” Hellbound ” and many more. In 2022 alone, there are ” All of Us Are Dead “, ” Business Proposal “, ” Tomorrow “, ” The Sound of Magic “, to ” Love and Leashes “.
In the midst of the development of webtoon-based works, there are 2 adaptations that have become hot topics even before being produced. The lineup of talented and popular actors is one of the main factors. Here are 2 dramas with the thriller genre of webtoon adaptations that fans are anticipating.
- ” Murderous Toys “
Although the original webtoon had short episodes and its author’s debut work, “Murderous Toy” became famous for messing with readers’ minds by putting double lines and clues in it. This drama will star Choi Woo Shik and Son Suk Ku .
Choi Woo Shik will play Lee Tang, the main character who commits a murder by chance and gets caught up in various incidents since then. It was not clear whether Lee Tang was a good person or a bad person. The combination of Choi Woo Shik and Son Suk Ku is increasingly anticipated as they appear in this year’s popular dramas ” Our Beloved Summer ” and ” My Liberation Notes “.
- ” Vigilante “
The original highly acclaimed webtoon, “Vigilante” also frustrates readers as it reflects a socially problematic event in which the protagonist directly judges violent criminals. Starring Nam Joo Hyuk , Yoo Ji Tae and Lee Joon Hyuk , this drama is considered promising.
Nam Joo Hyuk, who is loved thanks to his boyfriend material character, will play Kim Ji Yong. His character in this drama is two-faced who likes to take the law into his own hands. Meanwhile, Lee Joon Hyuk will play Jo Gang Ok, a third-generation chaebol who supports Kim Ji Yong. Meanwhile, Yoo Ji Tae plays Jo Heon, the detective who hunts down Kim Ji Yong.
