The rising actor continues his global streak after 'Black Pean 2'.

🎬 First Episode Success — 14.2% Viewership

Actor Kim Moo-joon is winning hearts overseas. He made his debut on the April 13 premiere of TBS's Sunday drama Caster, which recorded an impressive 14.2% viewership rating, signaling a strong start.

The series is set inside the fictional newsroom of JBN's "News Gate", and follows the pursuit of hidden truths and societal corruption behind polished headlines.

🌐 Playing a Korean AD With Cross-Cultural Insight

Kim takes on the role of Choi Jae-seong, a Korean international student working as an assistant director at the network. His character offers a cross-cultural lens, highlighting the tension between truth and media.

He's no stranger to Japanese screens. Kim previously gained attention in TBS's 'Black Pean 2' as Min-jae, a surgical intern from Korea — a role that showcased his potential as a rising global star.

💖 Balancing Global & Local Projects

Kim Moo-joon is also active back home. He's set to star in the upcoming SBS romantic comedy Just a Kiss, Nothing More (working title), airing later this year.

Fans worldwide will be able to catch him in Caster via Netflix, starting April 20, across 190+ countries.
