South Korean star Song Kang – also dubbed “son of Netflix” for his leading roles in Netflix original dramas – has returned with another hit series on the streaming platform, My Demon, a global top 10 TV show in the non-English category.
Song plays a heartless demon named Jung Koo-won who loses his evil powers after falling for a cold but captivating heiress Do Do-he, played by actress Kim Yoo-jung.
The seasoned actor, who’s known for starring as a male lead in romances, is one of the most sought-after stars in South Korea.
Song made his debut in 2017 with a supporting role in the TV series The Liar and His Lover. He eventually landed his first leading role in 2019 in the Netflix series Love Alarm, taking on the role of a high schooler who falls in love with his best friend’s crush.
But his 2020 role in the webtoon-turned-Netflix horror series Sweet Home is what put him on the South Korean entertainment map. He also demonstrated his versatility by proving that he can tackle roles beyond the handsome romantic male lead.
His good looks have garnered plenty of attention from fans and brands alike. In 2020, Song was named ambassador of South Korean cosmetics brand Banila; he later also landed ambassadorships with Bobbi Brown Cosmetics and Italian fashion house Prada.
