Disney+ is adding another show to its fast growing Korean drama library, as it has picked up an action spy series The Tyrant.
The series tells a thrilling story of a robbery of bioweapon that has been stolen during a secret handover between Korean and American intelligence agencies.
The synopsis of the series read, “A US intelligence agency discovered a secretive initiative called ‘the Tyrant Project’ that was being conducted in Korea. They demand that the Korean authorities terminate the program immediately. After dismantling the project, it was slated to be handed over to the US but an unexpected incident occurred during the transfer process. Following Director Choi’s instructions, operation staff Ja-kyung and Mo-yong successfully managed to seize a sample of the program. When US intelligence agent Paul learns of the mishap, he resolves to retrieve the sample himself.”
The series star Jo Yoon-soo from True Beauty as skilled infiltrator Chae Jagyeong, Cha Seong-won from Our Blues as a cold blooded mercenary Lim Sang, Kim Seon Ho from Start-up as Director Choe, the leader of the secret Korean project, and Kim Kang Woo from Le Grand Chef as U.S. intelligence agent Paul.
