THRILLING NEW KOREAN ACTION DRAMA “THE MANIPULATED” DEBUTS NOVEMBER 5 EXCLUSIVELY ON DISNEY+

Framed for a crime he didn’t commit, a beaten and broken man will attempt to exact his revenge in “The Manipulated”, a new twelve-part Korean action drama coming November 5, exclusively to Disney+.

 

Driven and compassionate, Taejoong is a model citizen who works tirelessly to make his dream a reality. Surrounded by a loving group of friends and family, everything is moving in the right direction for Taejoong until his kind-hearted nature betrays him. Suddenly arrested for the rape and murder of a woman he claims to have never met, Taejoong will have everything he loves ripped from him as he’s sentenced to life in prison. A shell of his former self, Taejoong’s life passes in a daze until a new inmate with a shockingly similar story tips him off to the fact that someone out there is framing innocent people. Fueled by an uncontrollable rage over everything he’s lost, Taejoong swears to find the people responsible and make them pay.

 

Set to debut with a four-episode premiere followed by two episodes a week until an electrifying finale on December 3, The Manipulated stars Ji Changwook (The Worst of Evil, Gangnam B-Side) as wrongfully convicted victim Park Taejoong, and Doh Kyungsoo (The Moon, Swing Kids) as An Yohan. The series is written by prolific Korean screenwriter Oh Sangho (Taxi Driver, Fabricated City) and is directed by Park Sinwoo (The Killing Vote) and Kim Changjoo (Hard Hit).
