Sword & Silence just dropped a powerful new character teaser for Kim Pom Min, played by Lee Hyun Wook, and it is all about destiny, grief, and an unbreakable vow. The upcoming historical K-drama has set its premiere for November 14 at 9:20 p.m. KST.
The teaser opens on Kim Pom Min staring down a country reduced to ruins, its people crying out in despair. Overwhelmed, he blames himself, whispering, “It’s my fault.” But the words of his father Kim Chun Chu (Kim Kang Woo) pull him back: “It is our destiny to break the cruel cycle of killing one another.” That vow becomes his fuel — “I will protect them. I will make it happen, no matter what.”
