Seo Do-young Delivers Unscripted Action in ‘The Haunted Palace’
Actor Seo Do-young has caused a stir with a stunning performance in SBS’s ‘The Haunted Palace’. A pivotal moment, aired on June 6, showcased his character Cheon Geum-hwi in a gripping fight scene that wasn’t even in the script.
In a dramatic backstory, Cheon, once a celebrated warrior, becomes a vengeful spirit after suffering a horrific betrayal during war. The intense scene unfolds as Cheon discovers his surviving infant son in the arms of his deceased wife.
In a heart-wrenching twist, he wraps the baby in a traditional carrier and confronts enemy troops. The climax sees him struck by a flaming arrow, leading to his anguished vow: “Even in death, I will repay this grudge!”
Viewers are raving about the emotional impact of the scene, but here’s the kicker: Seo Do-young pitched the idea of the baby in the carrier himself.
“That wasn’t written in the script,” he stated. “But I felt that as a father, Cheon Geum-hwi would never leave his child behind.”
His passion and creativity have elevated the series, deepening Cheon’s tragic journey.
