Ryu Jun Yeol, Sul Kyung Gu, And Lee Kyu Hyung Get Entangled In A Pursuit Of A Mysterious Man In New Drama “Mousetrap”
Netflix’s forthcoming drama ‘Mousetrap’ has revealed new stills featuring its cast.
Based on a webtoon, ‘Mousetrap’ is a thriller about a reclusive novelist who loses everything—his name, identity and fortune—to a mysterious man known only as ‘The Rat.’ To reclaim his life, he forges an unlikely alliance with the loan shark who once pursued him. Together, they set off on an intense chase in which the boundary between reality and deception collapses and deeper hidden truths emerge.
The newly released stills hint at an unpredictable chase and confrontation between three characters: novelist Moon Jae (Ryu Jun Yeol), loan shark Noja (Sul Kyung Gu), who is intent on recovering his lost money; and detective Sun Yong (Lee Kyu Hyung), who investigates the case as they seek the true identity of ‘The Rat.’
The stills capture Moon Jae’s bewilderment after losing everything to the unidentified ‘The Rat.’ As a novelist who has lived in isolation, Moon Jae’s quest to uncover the truth behind the life that was taken from him delivers both visceral fear and genre-driven tension.
Meanwhile, Noja commands attention with his charisma and presence in the stills. While searching for his lost money, he becomes entangled in the strange incident surrounding Moon Jae. One shot of him chasing someone while wielding an iron bar hints at his relentless determination to achieve his end by any means necessary.
Director Kim Hong Sun praised Sul Kyung Gu, saying he is ‘an actor of exceptional skill, perfectly suited to the role of Noja.’
Finally, a still of detective Sun Yong scrutinising documents with a suspicious expression teases the true nature of what has landed on his desk. In another, his determined gaze hints at how he will unravel the case surrounding Moon Jae.
‘Mousetrap’ is set to premiere on 28 August.
