Kim Soo Hyun Confirms Netflix Thriller K-drama Bloody Finger About Mysterious Spatial Designer and Use of Computer Tracking

Okay, breathes out sigh of relief. I do want Kim Soo Hyun to challenge himself but having him potentially play the Korean Patrick Bateman may be a bridge too far for me (yet). Thankfully the confirmation news that Kim Soo Hyun will be doing the Netflix original K-drama Bloody Finger also comes with an updated synopsis that doesn’t read like the adaptation of American Psycho. Whew. He will be playing a reclusive mysterious spatial designer who does everything himself and is only contactable by email. He was adopted overseas as a kid and returned to South Korea after both parents died in an accident and left their money to him. Everyone is curious about who he is and gradually his real identity will be revealed during the drama. The character is described as basically playing two characters though not split personality. Directing is the movie director of Silence and Tune in for Love (Yoo Yeol’s Music Album) and the screenwriter of drama Wanted.

      • Same. I think it might be interesting to see him do a role without a love interest even if the role isn't a violent misogynist like Patrick Bateman

        But now I see it's the same director as Tune in For Love and I worry because that movie was so freaking boring. And I say this as a fan of one of the actors, it was too boring to even finish.

  • Jackpot! This sounds even more amazing then I thought. I hope it’s as crazy as Mr. Robot! Lol it’s totally up my alley! Go Kim Soo Hyun! This will really challenge him! I am excited!

  • I actually would have liked the idea of korean remake of American Psycho. It would have been an interesting role for KSH To play. A nice way of challenging himself

      • I think they wanted to tell his character will be evil like American Psycho...coz it's a drama not a Movie 2-3 hours movie cannot be drawn into a drama of 16 episodes. KSH will pure evil..
        Plus it is said drama will be shooting in other countries too...we can see KIM SOO HYUN speaking in English.

      • @joane
        Yes they r talented in acting so they have fans and still active in this industry as one of the best actress and those who dont have any talent are here commenting on others capability

        Stop it dont make our fandom worse than it already is our girl is suffering

      • @Joane Oh please just stop with the toxicity. Why do you always have to trash other actresses? Our girl KYJ is already great, we don't have to bring down other actresses just to prove it. Ana is right. We KYJ fans don't claim you

      • I'm no fan of Yoona, it's true her acting skill is uneven but she can be really charming and expressive if the drama lets her (she's good in that prime minister drama and Exit, really insipid and terrible in K2 where she was just a damsel in distress, and The King Loves too - boring).

      • So she can leech off his star power? So that if that drama became a hit you'd come here to stupidly yell as usual that she's the "queen who hard-carried the drama"? No thanks. In your dreams.

    • For this drama...if there will be female lead. It will be any strong actress...coz matching top hallyu star with 4 daesangs and having Baeksang award for best actor at such a young age is not easy. Rather seeing anyone popularity we must see talent.

      • Yes indeed. Thankfully Soohyun always works with most talented actress in his previous drama. From Jun Jihyun to IU to Seo Yeaji, it proves that Soohyun knows well how to pick female partners with great acting skills

    • Nah not Suzy, Yoona or any idols. I'd rather he continue working with talented but underated actresses just like he did with Seo Ye Ji. From his age group, Kim Tae Ri like the others are mentioning is good. I would also support Park Eun Bin. For the noonas if Seo Ji Hye is not booked. I think she would fit him. She has the charisma, acting chops and would fit this kind of drama.

    • Wow, all this user did was make a harmless comment on who she hoped to be female lead, but the responses??? Just ignore it if you don't like idols. Well, I already knew that KSH fans and people on this site are elitist and think they are superior. It's funny when he himself is humble and has many idol friends.

      • Yoona especially has proven herself capable in the right roles as she is the first idol actress to be nominated for Best Actress in prestigious film awards, but ok, stay biased. There are plenty of mediocre REAL actresses out there, but panties are in a twist when an idol is mentioned. Comical, really.

      • Ah finally someone says the right sentence. I think that same way, not all of ksh fans, but many ksh fans think their bias is one and only the best actor in the world with many awards achievements that not every actress can be eligible working with him cos they might not match ksh acting spectrum level. I mean whatt? Thats quite arrogancy. Irony cos I love ksh so much because of his humbleness and simplicity. The good thing is that I still stan for a ksh, so some of his annoying fans does not bother me for not liking his acting cos he can act so good.

      • Thanks for agreeing, Winky. Yes, indeed SOME of his fans are extremely arrogant. They say that they want talented actresses now, but forget how some of them bashed Seo Yeji when casting news first came out because she wasn't "popular enough for him." They say they want underrated actresses, but then name Kim Taeri of all people, who is arguably the most popular and acclaimed 1990-born actress. It's hilarious. But anyways, I will keep supporting Kim Soohyun in every project he does. Female lead doesn't matter to me since he is talented enough to act with anyone and help them shine.

      • Good example on Seo Yeaji case. Thats why I adore KSH. He is so humble and open for criticism and never underestimate someone just because they are not popular enough in his fans' perspective. He sees good thing on his costar / colleagues when most ppl doesnt. Thats why iotnbo is a very succesfull. They trust each other, not one feeling more superior than the other

      • To be fair, at least one of those idols has a decade-long record of bad or mediocre acting skills. Idol fans getting wildly defensive over criticism of their faves acting is always funny.

        (No hate on Yoona though, she's actually more than decent if given an ok role)

  • I think it will be something like Hyun Bin’ character in memories of alhambra. I mean actor centric character. I cant wait seeing Soohyun play this interesting character!

  • Gonna support my baby... can't wait.

    Female lead??? Anyone except idol.

    I wish they'll cast kim tae ri!!! She needs a comeback to dramaland.

    • Kim Tae Ri for me too! I think Kim Soo Hyun really needs to star in something with her! I also want her to star with Yoo Ah In!

  • All this talk about female lead when Kim Soo Hyun himself has not confirmed. The latest I read is the FL will be selected through auditions so they are probably looking for new talent. All fandoms have arrogant fans so it’s quite unfair to say some of HIS fans so arrogant and think he’s superior. All actors have this type of fans because the general view is most idols are not good at acting so you can’t blame people for preferring actors over idols, just like people would prefer to watch idols sing and dance over actors.

      • You mean about the audition? They claimed they found their leading lady through it, even announced her (Jung In Sun iirc)

        But then they ditched her for the better-known Oh Yeon Seo ....and the drama flopped. Who knows if they kept JIS as lead, maybe she and Joo Won might have had at least decent chemistry? (script was still bad though)

    • Agree with the statement that not only ksh that has arrogant fans, most artist surely does have. Hope there will be more fans who wise enough to not underrate other artist in order to support their fave

      • For Seo Ye Ji... Most of KSH fans were worried coz writer were rookie and director was not well known but still KSH choose IOTNOB even when people around him said not to do this project coz his character was ordinary. That time only reason to watch IOTNOB was KSH. But after watching it... everyone understands not to underestimate and have trust on KSH. This time again for Bloody FINGER drama... writer is not much experienced... people are worried coz he is taking risk. Even he was choosen most demanded Korean actor in drama of 2020... declining big offers and choosing risky project is not easy thing.

      • Yes. But actually after we watch IOTNBO, we all should learn to not underestimate unpopular female lead or rookie writer. Before drama air, yes I admit that most ppl want to watch because of Soohyun, but while its airing, many ppl ended watching because of Seo Yeaji beauty and great acting skill. Many of them cannot believe how such beautiful actress with great talent has not been discovered before. Plus many ppl also stay to watch the drama bcos of excellent story made by that rookie writer and amazing cinematography. So in the end, the succeed of iotnbo in the end is bcause the whole team, not per individually achievement. Cos famous actor / actress can be the reason why ppl want to watch, but it doesnt always guarantee the successful of a drama. Many examples of kdrama that is so hype in the beginning bcos starred by famous actor / actress, but turns out a big flop. Well done to all Moon Trio, Jo Young, and Park Shin Woo PDnim and crew. They all make IOTNBO succesful equally.

      • Yes, learning from iotnbo, hope more fans trying not to underestimate any not popular actress / actor. I believe KSH is very successful now cos his personality for never looking down on someone' potential

      • @Naveen

        Yes, most ppl start watching iotnbo because of ksh, but after it aired, many ppl also stays watching iotnbo because of syj instead. They wonder how they havent known such talented actress with great visual like her.

        Some ppl stays watching because of the storyline that is relatable to them as well, some even stays watching because of the ost and cinematography.

        So the succeed of iotnbo resulted from the hardwork from all crew and cast.

        Many kdrama with all the hype in the beginning starred by famous actor / actress, eventually be a big flop with relatively bad review if not well executed

        Thankfully ksh, syj, ojs great acting with amazing supporting cast, great story, and good cinematography bring the exceptional achievement for the drama

      • Park shin woo is a good and well known PD nim I guess. He directed Encounter starred by SHK n PBG
        And yes, most ppl start watching iotnbo bcos of KSH, but also many ppl stay watching iotnbo bcos of a great acting with great visual brought by SYJ, whom they cant believe that they only notice her now
