tvN’s upcoming drama “The Player 2: Master of Swindlers” has shared reasons to anticipate the drama ahead of its premiere!
The highly-anticipated sequel to OCN’s hit 2018 series “The Player,” “The Player 2: Master of Swindlers” is a heist drama about a squad of talented swindlers who target the wealthy and corrupt by stealing dirty money that has been obtained through illegal means.
Song Seung Heon will be reprising his role as the slick con artist Kang Ha Ri, who is the mastermind behind the squad’s elaborate schemes. Lee Si Eon will also reprise his role as the brilliant hacker Lim Byung Min, while Tae Won Suk will return as top-notch fighter Do Jin Woong.
Ahead of the premiere, “The Player 2: Master of Swindlers” shared three reasons to anticipate the upcoming drama.
1. The ultimate teamwork
The drama raises anticipation for the synergy between talented actors Song Seung Heon, Oh Yeon Seo, Lee Si Eon, Tae Won Suk, and Jang Gyuri. From a genius con artist to a brilliant hacker, top-notch fighter, new driver, and a mysterious woman, the five unique characters raise anticipation for their teamwork, refreshing chemistry, and diverse stories to come.
2. More powerful villains
Charismatic con artist Kang Ha Ri, who dealt with villains in his own way, will receive a proposal from the enigmatic woman Jung Soo Min (Oh Yeon Seo) and tackle a new case, leading a new plan to deliver justice with the motley crew of Lim Byung Min, Do Jin Woong, and Cha Jae Yi (Jang Gyuri), who have gathered together for the common goal of money and revenge.
Although the villains threaten the crew with greater evil than before, the players will also move more meticulously and bolder than before.
