Last month was a special one for fans of Korean film and television. One of the country’s biggest stars returned to screens in not just one but two major new projects.
Two years after the drama series Arthdal Chronicles, Song Joong-ki is back with the sci-fi action-drama Space Sweepers and the mafia-infused action-comedy drama Vincenzo, both streaming worldwide on Netflix.
Song has captured the hearts of viewers ever since his debut more than a decade ago. Thanks to his steadily maturing performances, he has won the respect of anyone who wasn’t already enthralled by his clear skin, bright smile and easy charm.
