Legendary actor Yoo Ji Tae has been cast alongside Nam Joo Hyuk and Lee Jun Hyuk in the suspense thriller drama.
As a result of the coverage of media reports on May 17th, Yoo Ji Tae will join the new drama 'Vigilante' as one of the leads named Jo Heon, the head of the investigation team of the Metropolitan Investigation Unit. He is a talented person who has been attracting attention from the police academy, and is a character who is considered a ‘monster'.
‘Vigilante' is a drama based on the webtoon of the same name by Kim Gyu Sam. Vigilante, who judges the wicked who escaped the law, has become a social phenomenon, and the investigators of the Metropolitan Investigation Unit pursue it. Vigilante is an organized group and is a term derived from the meaning of 'to watch over' and 'to watch out for' in Spanish.
Nam Joo Hyuk is expected to play the role of Ji Yong, a police college student who works as a vigilante, and Lee Jun Hyuk is expected to play the role of Jo Gang Ok, a group vice president who creates vigilantes. As Yoo Ji Tae joins the role of Jo Heon, expectations are high that the special lineup will be completed with a heavy presence.
