Kim Yo Han left out by Netflix in the promotional spotlight.
With the release of Netflix‘s ambitiously crafted original K-Drama A Killer Paradox, based on Naver Webtoon by creator Kkomabi, fan excitement was palpable this past weekend. Through its narrative, we follow college student Lee Tang, portrayed by Choi Woo Shik, and hard-nosed detective Jang Nan Gam, enacted by Son Suk Ku.
Netflix describes the show: “An average college student gets caught up in an endless cat-and-mouse game with a keen detective after an accidental murder sets off a chain of events.”

Although the main spotlight was on Choi Woo Shik and Son Suk Ku, an important role was also filled by actor Lee Hee Joon, who featured in recent promotional materials on Netflix’s social media.
Lee Hee Joon’s transformation into the character, former police officer Song Chon, was notable for its departure from his usual look.

The vigilant Roh Bin, enacted by Kim Yo Han, shared the on-screen battle against evil beside Song Chon. However, following the series launch, Roh Bin’s actor Kim Yo Han seemed to be the only lead missing from the promotional spotlight.
Kim Yo Han boasts a rich acting resume, appearing in works like Summer Strike, Military Prosecutor Doberman, and When the Devil Calls Your Name as well as films such as My Puppy and Move to Mind.
Despite the significance of Kim Yo Han’s role, Netflix’s promotional endeavours favoured Choi Woo Shik, Son Suk Ku, and Lee Hee Joon, showcasing them in various content pieces like photoshoots and an ASMR video.
Netizens expressed their wish to see Kim Yo Han celebrated in similar fashion post-show. It is important to note that Kim Yo Han from A Killer Paradox should not be confused with the idol Yohan from the boy groups WEi and X1.
