'Kidnap Game' Starring Kentaro Sakaguchi and Lee Joon-gi to Premiere on October 6

Channel A's new Tuesday drama 'Kidnap Game' has confirmed its premiere for October 6 at 10 PM. This work is a global thriller project centered on a series of serial kidnapping incidents occurring simultaneously in seven Asian cities, including Seoul, Tokyo, Taipei, Singapore, Bangkok, Manila, and Naha.

Expectations are high as Kentaro Sakaguchi and Lee Joon-gi take on the lead roles. Kentaro Sakaguchi plays Toshiro Niide, a Tokyo detective searching for his kidnapped wife, while Lee Joon-gi plays Han Gi-ju, a doctor struggling to save his daughter. The two will work together as characters facing extreme choices to recover their loved ones.

The released poster shows the faces of the main characters gathered to form the shape of a giant red rose. This red rose is expected to appear as a key symbol connecting the kidnapping incidents and the participants in the drama. Actors of various nationalities, including Ga Ga-yeon, Carrie Wong, Joel Torre, Narupornkamol Chaisang, and Shinnosuke Mitsushima, have joined as characters caught up in the survival game.

Participating in a joint production by South Korea, Japan, and Hong Kong, this drama depicts the background of how characters with no connection to each other come together for a 10-day survival game and the process of tracing the truth. The production team stated that the desperation of the characters and the mystery contained within the red rose will be important axes for the development of the work.
