Disney+’s upcoming original series 'Made in Korea' unveiled a gripping new teaser, heightening anticipation for its star-studded cast and politically charged storyline.
Set against the turbulent backdrop of the 1970s, the drama follows Baek Ki Tae (Hyun Bin, a man consumed by ambition for power and wealth, and prosecutor Jang Geon Young (Jung Woo Sung), who is willing to sacrifice everything to stop him. Their intertwined fates ignite a fierce clash as they become entangled in a historic national upheaval.
The teaser opens with a solemn image of Baek Ki Tae saluting the national flag, signaling the intense ideological confrontation at the heart of the story. When Jang Geon Young pointedly asks what led him to join the KCIA, Ki Tae responds with conviction: "I joined to serve my country."
As the preview unfolds, Ki Tae’s motives grow increasingly opaque. His striking declaration, "This too is national duty, this too is patriotism," raises unsettling questions about the blurred line between loyalty and ambition.
Meanwhile, Jang Geon Young intensifies his pursuit of a shadowy criminal organization, even as he faces pressure from his superiors to back down. His firm vow, "Baek Ki Tae... I’ll catch him no matter what," solidifies him as a man of unwavering resolve.
Quick flashes introduce Cheon Seok Joong (Jung Sung Il, Chief Pyo (Roh Jae Won), and Director Hwang (Park Yong Woo), hinting at secret alliances and complex power dynamics surrounding Ki Tae.
In a tense moment, Jang Geon Young warns, "If you want to go up against me, be prepared."
Later, when Baek Ki Tae challenges him with "What game are you playing?," Jang answers simply: "Patriotism."
The teaser closes on this defining contrast: two men invoking the same ideal but heading toward an inevitable collision shaped by ambition, conviction, and the volatile tides of history.
