Joo Sang Wook

Joo Sang Wook (주상욱) has built one of the sturdier second-act careers in Korean television. He turned early procedural and family-drama volume into a dependable lead presence, then kept resurfacing in romance, historical drama, and prestige ensemble work without losing that sharp, slightly dangerous screen edge. In 2026, that edge feeds directly into SBS and Netflix thriller traffic through Agent Kim Reactivated Sets SBS Premiere and Netflix Launch.

He joins So Ji Sub in Agent Kim Reactivated as Ju Kang Chan, a construction chairman who weaponizes money and violence, which instantly gives the drama a heavier adult register. That fits a filmography that already moves from Birth of a Beauty and Cunning Single Lady to The King of Tears, Lee Bang Won and Bo-ra! Deborah. HB Entertainment currently manages him, and the agency's own API confirms both his current profile materials and official Instagram link.
