Shin Ye-eun hunts for her brother’s killer in Revenge of Others

The first promos have dropped for Disney+’s Revenge of Others (a.k.a. Third Person Revenge), including an action-packed video teaser and a cool new illustrated poster.

The mystery-thriller stars Shin Ye-eun (Yumi’s Cells 2) as a shooting athlete named Ok Chan-mi, who transfers to the high school her twin brother – played by Kang Yul (Best Mistake 3) – had attended in order to prove the truth behind his death. Although her brother had suspiciously fallen from a school window, his death was brushed under the rug as a suicide. Now, Chan-mi is determined to find the killer herself.

The newly released teaser opens with the death of Chan-mi’s brother and Chan-mi cries, wondering why her brother would commit suicide. She pleads with the police to find the culprit, but is simply told that there was no evidence of foul play. As she sees a vision of her twin in the hallway, we hear Chan-mi’s inner thoughts: “The reason that I’m transferring to a school in Seoul is to find my brother’s murderer.” Using a megaphone, she then loudly announces her intentions to the school.

Park Solomon’s (All of Us Are Dead) Ji Soo-hun reveals that he witnessed the fall and that he was one who called the police. But we cut away before hearing his response to Chan-mi’s question of who he thinks did it. Chan-mi then encounters both Lee Soo-min (Pumpkin Time) and Jung Soo-bin (Juvenile Justice), leading to Soo-hun’s reproach: “I warned you. You’re going to be facing even more serious and wrongful things than this.” But Chan-mi doesn’t back down, stating, “Until the culprit is caught, everyone is a suspect to me.”

As the music ramps up, we cut to a text screen that reads: “Choosing to follow revenge instead of dreams at nineteen.” In the action sequence that follows, we get a quick look at the story’s other players, including Seo Ji-hoon (Seasons of Blossoms), Chae Sang-woo (Money Flower), and Kim Joo-ryung (Poong the Joseon Psychiatrist). The teaser then closes on Chan-mi’s final vow to catch the culprit herself.

Directed by PD Kim Yoo-jin with scripts penned by Lee Hee-myung (Reunited Worlds), Disney+’s Revenge of Others premieres next month on November 9.
