Lee Hak Joo always sports different suits in the Netflix drama as he plays the role of the right-hand henchman of the powerful criminal organization's head.

Lee Hak Joo Suffers From People's Curses When He Plays Villain
While his height earned enough attention, all his villainous roles also got the fair share of the spotlight – but in a negative way.
Last month, he appeared on KBS's Problem Child in House where he reflected on the effects of playing several flicks' antagonist characters. Per Lee Hak Joo, he always gets cursed out whenever he plays a villainous role.
"At first, it didn't feel good, because being cursed out is being cursed out. There were a lot of comments like, 'I hate seeing him,' and 'He gives me a bad impression.' It was the first time I'd heard that I gave off a bad impression in my whole life," he said.
But with the hate comments he receives because of his character, it gives him credits since it only means that he acts so well people always think the series is real.
