Park Bo-young and Kim Sung-cheol are set to show explosive synergy in the upcoming Disney+ original series Goldland.
🎬 A Crime Thriller Fueled by Gold and Greed
On June 10, Goldland unveiled its star-studded cast lineup: Park Bo-young, Kim Sung-cheol, Lee Hyun-wook, Kim Hee-won, Moon Jeong-hee, and Lee Kwang-soo. The series promises a gripping crime thriller centered around a gold smuggling ring and the dangerous obsessions it sparks.
Park Bo-young plays Kim Hee-joo, an international airport security officer who unexpectedly becomes entangled in a gold smuggling operation. Caught in chaos, her thirst to claim the gold for herself begins to consume her.
🌟 Park Bo-young's Bold Genre Shift
Park shared, "Hee-joo seems indifferent to the gold at first, but she slowly transforms, driven by raw human desire. That process is compelling and intense."
🔥 Kim Sung-cheol Joins as a Ruthless Pawn
Kim Sung-cheol stars as Jang Wook, a low-level thug from a shady loan company. He discovers that Hee-joo is holding the smuggled gold and moves in on her with ulterior motives—ready to strike at any moment.
Kim expressed excitement about their chemistry, saying, "Wook is a complex character with lots of layers. I'm especially looking forward to the dynamic between him and Hee-joo."
✈️ Love, Betrayal, and Turbulence
Lee Hyun-wook plays Do-kyung, a co-pilot and Hee-joo's boyfriend who gets swept into the mess. The ambiguous tension between Hee-joo and Do-kyung will keep viewers guessing.
