Released on the 25th, the Netflix series 'Weak Hero Class 2' (written by Park Hyun-woo and Yoo Su-min, directed by Yoo Su-min, hereafter 'Weak Hero 2') is a drama that tells the harrowing tale of survival and brilliant coming-of-age of model student Yeon Shi-eun (played by PARK JIHOON), who transfers to a new school with the trauma of having failed to protect a friend from violence and vows never to lose a friend to violence again.
In the series, Cho Jungseok plays the role of CEO Choi, the manager of Na Baek-jin (played by BAE NARA), who stands at the pinnacle of a massive school gang alliance and is considered the 'axis of evil' in the series' universe. His special appearance left a deep impression.
Especially, CEO Choi's ability to subdue Na Baek-jin in an instant was enough to leave a strong impact. His chilling expression and cold tone while sternly warning Na Baek-jin, who causes trouble related to the alliance, saying, "If you come back, you're dead," was enhanced by Cho Jungseok's detailed acting, controlling even the slightest tremble of his facial muscles, drawing viewers deeper into the story.
Cho Jungseok fully immersed himself in the role of CEO Choi, the 'axis of evil' controlling all events, and despite being a special appearance, he exuded an overwhelming presence, crafting CEO Choi into an even more charismatic character.
Global viewers of 'Weak Hero 2' have expressed their enthusiasm, saying, "The moment Jo Jung-suk appeared, it felt like the genre changed," "Cho Jungseok's eyes filled with madness were insane," "Classic Cho Jungseok," "Even as a villain, Cho Jungseok is charming," "CEO Choi Cho Jungseok is a prime example of a great special appearance."
