LOOK MEDIA Entertainment

In the last couple of years, INFINTE's L (Kim MyungSoo) has been steadily making strides to becoming one of the prominent acting-dols in Korea. He made his acting debut in 2011 with the Japanese action drama "Jiu: Keishicho Tokushuhan Sousagakari" barely a year after he made his K-Pop debut with Infinite. Since then, he's played lead and supporting roles in many dramas across various genres, showing off his amazing versatility and earning not just commercial success but critical acclaim as well.

We must say, after watching a host of his dramas, it might take a minute for Kim MyungSoo to break out of his characters after shooting a drama because the way he fully immerses himself into his role is quite breathtaking. While we would say that we have missed seeing him on our screens due to his military enlistment, now that he has been discharged, we are all pleased with the news of his drama comeback with the office thriller drama "Numbers". Starring alongside Choi JinHyuk, the drama tells the story of the hectic lives of accountants who strive to meet their goals, which also includes a revenge plot. It is set to begin airing on the 23rd of June.
