Park Eun Bin is taking on a shocking transformation as a psychopathic killer in her new Disney+ drama Hyper Knife.
On March 17, the cast and crew of Hyper Knife attended a press conference at Conrad Seoul Hotel in Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul. The event featured director Kim Jung Hyun and actors Park Eun Bin, Seol Kyung Gu, Yoon Chan Young, and Park Byung Eun.
The medical thriller follows Jung Se Ok (Park Eun Bin), a former genius doctor who held a bright future, but now finds herself locked in an intense battle with her mentor Choi Deok Hee (Seol Kyung Gu), whom she holds responsible for her downfall.
Speaking about her character, Park Eun Bin revealed, "Hyper Knife was a project where I had no idea how it would turn out or how viewers would react throughout the entire filming process."
This role marks a huge turning point in her 30-year acting career, as it’s her first time playing a villain. She explained, "Se Ok loves the brain and surgery so much that it ultimately destroys her. She has no impulse control and isn’t particularly fearful."
She further described the complexity of her character, saying, "She is largely uncontrollable. In some ways, she is almost childishly simple, making her emotions very transparent. I hope viewers watch closely to see where Se Ok’s actions lead. I can't bring myself to ask for support."
Despite the dark nature of her role, the actress expressed her excitement for the challenge, sharing, "I was intrigued by everything because this was a character and genre I had never attempted before. More than anything, Se Ok undergoes a process of stripping away her facade alongside Deok Hee."
She also spoke highly of her co-star Seol Kyung Gu, saying, "It was my first time working with senior actor Seol Kyung Gu, and every scene we filmed together felt like a dopamine rush. Every moment gave me great stimulation and energy. It was truly an honor."
Hyper Knife is set to release a total of eight episodes, with two episodes dropping weekly starting March 19.
