‘The Nice Guy’ Kdrama Premieres Tonight with Lee Dong-wook and Lee Sung-kyung
The highly awaited Korean drama The Nice Guy is finally making its debut today, July 18, at 8:50 PM KST on JTBC. International fans can also catch it on Disney+ in selected regions. The drama has a blend of noir, gangster family drama, and romance.
The Nice Guy stars Lee Dong-wook, a big name in K-drama known for his powerful performances in shows like Goblin and Tale of the Nine-Tailed. He takes on the role of a man caught in a web of crime, betrayal, and unexpected love. Co-starring is Lee Sung-kyung, admired for her roles in Dr. Romantic 2 and Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok-joo. She plays a strong, emotionally layered female lead who finds herself deeply connected to Dong-wook’s character in a story filled with secrets and emotions.
The show’s plot has a complex tale set in the dark underbelly of a gangster family, where loyalty is tested and trust is scarce. Unlike the usual light rom-coms, The Nice Guy leans into intense emotions, mystery, and mature storytelling, while still offering viewers the romantic spark that K-dramas are known for.
VeryDarkMan shares that he was warned by Burna Boy once that the Nigerians he fights for will one day turn on him.
He shared “Burna Boy warned me, he said the Nigerians I’m fighting for will backstab me. They’ll put knife in your neck if they have the opportunity.”
“Fighting for Nigerians is tiring. Same Nigerians that tried to cancel Burna of their own because of what happened in his UK show. Una international star. Just because him tell one person make him Comot from him show, Una join them everybody wan cancel am.”
