“Short but Powerful!” Go Soo Steals the Scene in ‘Gunche’ with a Heartwarming and Righteous Performance

Han Kyu-sung is a man who visits the Dunguri Building to introduce Chains Bio to Kwon Se-jung (Jun Ji-hyun), who had failed her professor reappointment, just one day before his planned immigration to the United States. However, he finds himself caught up in an unexpected infection crisis. Go Soo delivers a clean and understated performance, capturing Han Kyu-sung’s kindness and sense of responsibility as he worries about his ex-wife’s future right up until the moment of his departure.

Even though their relationship has ended, Han Kyu-sung’s refusal to turn his back on Kwon Se-jung naturally reveals the friendship and loyalty remaining within him. This adds conviction to his decision to prioritize others during the disaster. His sense of justice in the face of crisis was particularly impressive. In a tense moment as a swarm of zombies approached, Han Kyu-sung didn’t hesitate to rush toward Choi Hyun-hee (Kim Shin-rok) alongside Kwon Se-jung after she collapsed.
