Rain is Back! Our OG "oppa" For Disney+ " Red Swan"


Rain is back! From six-pack abs to daring stunts, here’s how the OG oppa got Pinoy KDrama fans hooked on his new series Red Swan, available on Disney+

Marking his return to action since 2019, Rain’s new revenge-romance series, Red Swan, has caused quite a splash, reawakening – to say the least – the Philippines’ hibernating titas of Kdrama.

A masterful depiction of an underground world of crime wrapped in the glamorous world of the rich, Red Swan showcases an even fitter Rain, proving his stature as the OG oppa of the ever-vibrant Hallyu craze. His new role – a former cop, now working as a bodyguard to the Hwain Group, one of South Korea’s wealthiest families – is primed to add to his long list of portrayed characters that have won millions of adoring fans worldwide.

His acting prowess and visuals coupled with daring stunts and his unexpected chemistry with Kim Haneul, never fail to get Filo Clouds (Rain stans) and K-drama enthusiasts hooked on Red Swan. If you need more convincing, read on!

Running away from burning cars, engaging in hand-to-hand combat, and chasing criminals on foot – he does all these in a suit. Did we mention that he also boxes in this? He plays the part of a physically active bodyguard well, for sure!

In Red Swan, we see Rain back in his action roots as Seo Doyoon on a quest to uncover the mystery behind his colleague’s murder, subsequently unraveling the root of Wansoo’s assassination attempt. Reminiscing Rain’s former action roles from Detective Dongsu in Sketch, Raizo in Ninja Assassin, to Seo Doyoon in Red Swan, this new role is well on its way to becoming another fan favorite!


Red Swan streams every Wednesday on Disney+.
