Intense New Role for Lee Kwang Soo

In “No Way Out: The Roulette,” Lee Kwang Soo steps away from his familiar “Running Man” persona to take on a far more intense and gritty character. The drama portrays a high-stakes situation where a 20 billion won bounty is placed on the life of notorious criminal Kim Guk Ho, played by Yoo Jae Myung. Lee Kwang Soo’s character, Yoon Chang Jae, is a butcher driven by a personal vendetta to claim the reward by hunting down Kim Guk Ho.
