Gong Myung 'the god of deat.h' takes the screen by storm, revealin.g his unexpected relationship with Doyoung (NCT)

Actor Gong Myung currently owns a diverse film portfolio. Although he only plays supporting or secondary roles, his acting talent is recognized by many people.

His real name is Kim Dong Hyun (1994) born in Korea. He was originally a member of the bo.y band 5urprise. He then moved into acting in 2013.

He is currently an actor under the management company Saram Entertainment. The actor is known and loved by many audiences through the films: Bride of the Water God, Revolution of Love, Super Difficult Job,... In 2021, with the work Red Sky, his name became more known to the audience.

Besides, he is also the real brother of Doyoung - a member of the famous bo.y band NCT. Gong Myung not only receives the attention of the audience thanks to his acting ability but he also makes fans crazy because of his handsome appearance.

About Lovers of The Red Sky (2021), Set in the Joseon era, Lovers of The Red Sky revolves around the story of Hong Chun Gi (Kim Yoo Jung), the first and last female painter of this dynasty.

Chun Gi has a beautiful appearance, a bright personality and a natural talent for painting. She was born blind, but later miraculously regained her sight. One day, Chun Gi meets Ha Ram (Ahn Hyo Seop), a specialist in astronomy, geography, meteorology and the art of fortune telling. Ha Ram was also blind from a young ag.e after an acciden.t but can still read astronomy and the stars. From their encounters, the two develop feelings for each other...

In the film, Gong Myung plays Prince Yang Myung, a lover of poetry and painting. From Chun Gi's paintings, the prince gradually falls in love with her, creating a love triangle with Ha Ram. Gong Myung's role not only impresses with his handsome face but also thanks to his natural, genuine acting talent, making the audience love him more and more.

However, on November 5, 2021, 9X actor Gong Myung temporarily stopped acting to prepare for his mandatory military service. He received a mandatory military service summons in early 2021. However, he requested to postpone the summons due to his previously scheduled schedule.

On December 14, 2021, Gong Myung will officially enlist in the army. Before leaving for the army, he posted pictures of himself with short hair on his personal page. Along with that, he attached the status line: "I will go and return safely!". It is known that he will enlist as an active soldier. Due to the complicated epidemic situation, the time and location of his enlistment are kept secret.

In his acting career, Gong Myung has made an impression with his role as the Grim Reaper on Korean screens. The fictional theme of the "Grim Reaper" has been exploited in Korean films, leaving a strong impression on audiences through the performances of Lee Dong Wook, Joo Ji Hoon and now Gong Myung.

Belonging to the fantasy romance genre, the film "7 Days Together" marks the return of Gong Myung after being discharged from the army, collaborating with Kim Min Ha. Inspired by the novel A Week Before I Di.e, the film revolves around the gir.l Jung Hee Wan (played by Kim Min Ha) who isolates herself from the world after an incident that causes her to lose her will to live.

In the drama, Gong Myung plays Ram U, a quiet and introverted model student. However, after returning as the Grim Reaper, he signals a change with a brighter appearance. While alive, Hee Wan and Ram Woo became closer after an April Fool's joke. It was Hee Wan who persistently pulled Ram Woo out of the dark gloom and made his school days more exciting.

In general, Korean dramas and movies often portray the image of the Grim Reaper in many different ways. Compared to the cold, dark, gloomy image, Gong Myung's role in 7 Days Together brings a warm and gentle feeling. Meanwhile, Lee Dong Wook is innocent and sulky; Joo Ji Hoon is sometimes joking, sometimes extremely serious; or Song Seung Heon is sometimes cold as ice, sometimes rud.e.

The Korean male god joins Way Back Love, marking a strong 'turnaround' in his acting ability. Way Back Love is a fantasy school love story, where feelings of love and loss intertwine, taking the audience on an emotional journey.

In a wave of Korean dramas that are increasingly diverse in genre and content, Way Back Love stands out thanks to its unique combination of high school romance, fantasy elements, and emotional tragedy. Starring Kim Min-ha (Pachinko) and Gong Myung (Extreme Job), this six-episode drama not only moves viewers with its beautiful yet sad love story, but also evokes deep reflections on life, deat.h, and overcoming pai.n.

The film opens with a seemingly simple situation that leads to a series of dire consequences: on April Fools' Day, Jung Hee-wan (Kim Min-ha) and Ram-woo (Gong Myung) decide to switch names as an innocent prank. But when tragedy strikes—a fire at the observatory—Ram-woo is kille.d while using Hee-wan's name, and both families are thrown into chaos. Hee-wan survives, but is no longer herself.

Ram-woo, now a Grim Reaper, is tasked with informing Hee-wan that she has only one week to live. However, instead of following the "rules", he chooses to break them: find a way to help her overcome her despai.r, pull her back from the brink of deat.h and save her life - a way to save his own soul.

Kim Min-ha gives one of her best performances as Hee-wan: an innocent, dreamy young woman who gradually becomes silent and depressed due to loss. On the opposite side, Gong Myung plays Ram-woo - from a quiet student to a gentle, humorous and emotional Grim Reaper - a performance that is both gentle and poignant.

The transition between two timelines - the school past and the metaphysical present - is smoothly integrated by the director, making the story both retain the dreamy quality of school ag.e and deepen with the philosophy of life.

The clima.x of the film comes in silence and a look - when Ram-woo finally smiles, fading away after knowing that Hee-wan will be okay. It is a moment filled with emotion, when love is no longer a promise to stay together, but a departure so that the other can continue to live.

Way Back Love is a work that is as beautiful, sad, and gentle as an early summer rain. Under the director's steady hand and the sublimation in acting of Kim Min-ha and Gong Myung, the film becomes an emotional symphony about youth, love, and salvation.
