Seo In Guk transforms into a villain in 'Boy'

Seo In Guk returns to the big screen in the role of a villain in Boy.

Boy is a dystopia, revolving around incidents that occur in the Texas Hot Springs.

Through Boy, Seo In Guk makes a new character transformation as "Hatter". The "Hatter" is, in the near future, the de facto ruler and embodiment of absolute evil in "Texas Hot Springs", a dystopia for the discarded. Though he appears gentle on the surface, he is a cruel man who takes pleasure in "raising" people. He controls both Big Boss Gyo Han (Yoo In Soo) and Young Boss Rohan (Cho Byeong Kyu) — whom he himself brought up — through love and violence.

In the film, Seo In Guk is seen wearing a cowboy hat and an outfit typical of a Texas Western. The scene in which he unleashes violence with an eerily cold gaze toward the brothers Gyo Han and Ro Han, who attempt to break free from his control, reveals Seo In Guk in a transformation never seen before.

Director Lee Sang Deok said, "There were many changes during the difficult scenes [we filmed with actor] Seo In Guk, and even though those scenes required the greatest number of takes, he kept his spirits up more than anyone else," adding, "He has been a passionate actor who even moved the on-set staff."

The film will hit theaters on January 14.
