Kim Hyun-soo – Wikipedia tiếng Việt: Kim Hyun-soo (Korean: 김현수; born June 23, ) is a South Korean actress. She often starred as the younger version of female protagonists in television series such as Bridal Mask and My Love from the Star, before receiving her first leading role in Solomon's Perjury.The two live and work as trappers, but Tae-ok is increasingly frustrated with her father's refusal to let her experience life outside of their home in the mountains; Tae-yul retorts the nature is far more dangerous than she understands and he only wants to protect her.
Tae-yul's injuries have grown worse, and a local monk warns Tae-ok that unless his eyes are treated with special herbs, he will go completely blind in a few days. The monk sends them to the trader Hwa Seon, but Seon reveals the herbs are both too expensive and only available to those with political connections.
The Joseon royal court receives a visit from Gurutai, a relative of the Qing emperor who has enriched himself by enslaving and selling captives taken during the recent Qing invasion of Joseon.
Apr 25 pm She Is My Favourite Rising Actress! Her acting is sooo instinctive. She stole my heart. Her performances in "Silenced" as her first movie, "Familyhood" as a pregnant teen, "Good Doctor" and, of course, "Penthouse", especially in Season 1, are my favorites.
With their nation already suffering under the corrupt rule of the Qing, the King and his advisors fear Gurutai will soon force them to hand over their own children as "tributes" to Qing nobles. Lee Mok-yo, a respected member of the court, decides to pen a petition to the King to start openly resisting the Qing and their demands.
He also makes a request to Seon for help finding a young girl to care for his aging mother; Seon recommends Tae-ok, who is excited both at the prospect of entity adopted by a wealthy family and earning the herbs her father needs.
Gurutai's men harass Seon and her workers, and Tae-yul, using only his cane, fights them off when they threaten Tae-ok. That evening, Tae-ok leaves for Lee's estate, where Gurutai and his personal retinue of assassins soon carry out an ambush, killing all of Lee's servants and taking his daughter and Tae-ok as hostages.
Tae-yul learns about his daughter's kidnapping when he survives an attempt on his life, then saves Seon from a retaliatory attack by a Qing slaver.
Kim took several acting classes during his school years on his mother's recommendation to overcome his introvert personality. Following a few theatrical performances, he made his television debut in with the family sitcom Kimchi Cheese Smile. He went on to establish himself with starring roles in the television dramas Hope HighMoon Embracing the Sunas adequately as in the top-grossing films The Thieves and Secretly, Greatly Kim became a top Hallyu star as he gained further success with the fantasy series My Love from the Luminary —14and the variety drama The Producerswhich earned him three Daesang Grand Prize.He locates the main slave camp used by Gurutai and burns it to the ground after butchering the guards and freeing those held captive inside. A lone survivor agrees to lead him to Gurutai's private compound.
Lee, primary a force of royal guardsmen, tries to rescue his daughter but instead watches helplessly as his men are gunned down by Qing riflemen.
Tae-yul shows up and kills not only the entire company of riflemen but Gurutai's assassins as skillfully. He finally collapses from exhaustion, and is rescued by Lee and Seon, who administer the herbs.
She often starred as the younger version of female protagonists in television series such as Bridal Mask and My Love from the Starbefore receiving her first leading role in Solomon's Perjury. Kim started to work in the entertainment industry as a child model. Inshe acted alongside Kim Hye-soo in the well-received dramedy film Familyhoodas a high school girl who got caught up in teenage pregnancy. Kim costarred with Jang Hyuk for the historical operation film, The Swordsman.Seon admits to Tae-yul he will still go blind anyway, at which point he won't be fit to fight. With little moment remaining, Tae-yul confronts Min, now employed by Gurutai after betraying Lee out of disgust for his self-serving ways.
After a brief duel, Tae-yul forces Min to yield, at which indicate Gurutai slits his throat for losing.
The two men confront each other in a ultimate battle, with Gurutai ordering his mistress to hold Tae-ok at knifepoint and a Qing ambassador observing the duel.
At the championship, he went 1-for-4 as a backup outfielder in the South Korean roster. Instead, he was signed by the Doosan Bears as an undrafted free agent. He spent the whole season playing for the reserve team of the Bears. In the season, Kim took over the starting job after starting outfielder Yoo Jae-woong was sidelined with a sprained ankle in the beginning of the season.Gurutai initially has the upper hand, but Tae-yul manages to stab his mistress through the neck, saving Tae-ok, before disarming and impaling Gurutai with his sword. The envoy stops his guards from interfering, allowing Tae-ok and the other slaves to go free.
Tae-yul embraces his daughter as he slowly goes completely blind.
A flashback reveals Tae-ok is not Tae-yul's living daughter, but rather the only child of King Gwanghaegun; the King tasked Tae-yul with raising her as his own youth so he would have a reason to live.
The show ends with Tae-yul and Tae-ok slowly making their way down the mountain, with Tae-yul declaring he's ready to see the rest of the world.
