The upcoming crime movie Dirty Money revealed character stills of actor Park Byung Eun, who plays Seung Chan, the head of the Gwangsu Unit, and a former colleague of Myung Deuk (Jung Woo), with whom he shares a bitter relationship.

Dirty Money tells the story of two desperate detectives who find themselves entangled in a web of corruption and crime. Myung Deuk (Jung Woo), who takes bribes and covers for gangs to pay for his sick daughter's medical expenses, partners with Dong Hyuk (played by Hospital Playlist actor Kim Dae Myung), who is drowning in gambling debts. When they receive a tip about a Chinese gang transporting a large sum of money, they see an opportunity and decide to steal it for themselves. However, their plan backfires, and they quickly become targets of both the police and the Chinese gang. 

The stills featuring Seung Chan capture his sharp gaze, befitting his role as the meticulous leader of the Gwangsu Unit, who questions everything. After a detective from the Gwangsu Unit is killed in a shooting incident at a crime syndicate's illegal fund theft scene, Seung Chan is dispatched as the lead investigator.

As he investigates the whereabouts of the dirty money, he senses that his former colleague, Myung Deuk, is deeply involved in the case. Seung Chan begins to suspect both Myung Deuk and his partner detective, Dong Hyuk, as prime suspects.

Moreover, since Seung Chan had personally recruited Myung Deok into the Gwangsu Unit in the past, he knows him better than anyone else. Curiosity piques about how Seung Chan will close in on Myung Deok.

Director Kim Min Soo described Seung Chan's character, saying, "Seung Chan is usually someone who puts his emotions aside during investigations, but in this case, he dives in with strong passion, which is not typical of him."

Park Byung Eun shared that he decided to participate in Dirty Money because he believed audiences would be able to fully empathize with the characters' lives, the incidents surrounding them, and their emotions. He added, "I wanted Seung Chan to come across as someone not ordinary. To avoid a stereotypical portrayal, I maintained a poker face while also expressing an obsession and determination to catch the criminal and acted in a way that would allow the audience to sense a form of evil in a different sense." 

Dirty Money is coming to theaters on October 17.
