Eum Moon Suk Is A Gritty Ex-Detective Turned Ghost Employee In "The Midnight Studio"

ENA’s “The Midnight Studio” has shared a sneak peek of Eum Moon Suk’s character!

“The Midnight Studio” tells the thrilling yet mysterious story about a prickly photographer Seo Ki Joo (Joo Won), who runs a professional photo studio that only exists for the deceased, and passionate lawyer Han Bom (Kwon Nara) as they cross life and death with the night guests.

Eum Moon Suk takes on the role of Baek Nam Goo, the new ghost employee at the photo studio. In the newly released images, he exudes a rugged and commanding presence, hinting at his intimidating aura. However, beneath this facade lies a past where he served as a fearless detective, renowned for apprehending notorious criminals without hesitation during his lifetime. His mere presence instilled fear, prompting criminals to voluntarily surrender at the mere sight of him. Yet, a certain incident ultimately led to his death.

Following his demise, Baek Nam Goo visited the photo studio that claimed they would take the last moments of the living. However, driven by an unwavering determination to apprehend a particular criminal, he chooses to remain at the studio as its newest employee.

Among the studio’s staff—including owner and photographer Seo Ki Joo (Joo Won) and Assistant Manager Ko (Yoo In Soo)—Baek Nam Goo is the eldest in terms of earthly years, yet, as a ghost, he is merely 31 days old. Consequently, he assumes the role of a rookie tasked with handling minor duties assigned by Assistant Manager Ko, who is in his third year at the studio. Nevertheless, Baek Nam Goo quickly evolves into a crucial figure in the studio due to his ability to swiftly handle challenging guests, a skill cultivated during his previous life.

In addition, hidden beneath his rugged exterior is a tender side and an unparalleled devotion to his wife. Although typically reserved, he becomes remarkably talkative whenever discussing his beloved wife. Driven by his unwavering love for his wife, he continues to commute between work and home even as a ghost.

The production team commented, “We’re confident that Eum Moon Suk’s compelling magnetism will capture viewers’ eyes and hearts instantly. We hope viewers will eagerly anticipate the premiere to witness Baek Nam Goo’s irresistible charm in ‘The Midnight Studio.'”

“The Midnight Studio” is set to premiere on March 11 at 10 p.m. KST. Catch a teaser here!
