Lee Kyu Hyung will be taking on the role of Kang Sung Min, a candidate to be the next leader. After using Uncle Sam Sik to fulfill his desires and achieve his goals, he abandons Uncle Sam Sik. A major factor as to why Uncle Sam Sik becomes so interested in Kim San is due to his disdain for Kang Sung Min.

Now, he will be once again be reborn as a character of cold desire in “Uncle Sam Sik.”

But unlike Kim San, Jeong Han Min stays and trains hard in the hopes of one day reforming the military. However, he too eventually comes to crash against the looming wall of reality. Seo Hyun Woo is known for being a scene-stealer in his many projects including the movies “Decision to Leave” and “Honest Candidate 2” as well as the drama “Flower of Evil.” His stellar acting skills are expected to shine through once again as he joins the “Uncle Sam Sik” cast.
