One of the episodes particularly struck a chord with netizens as the plot revolves around a gay soldier called Jang Sung Min, who was brutally abused in the military. After the torment and hurt, Sung Min deserted his post.

Even before enlisting, he suffered abuse after sharing his desire to play a female role in a play.

When the episode aired, netizens couldn’t stop praising the actor for his heartfelt and emotional portrayal of the character. In each scene, every emotion could be felt by the actor.

After the episode, it wasn’t surprising that people wanted to know who the actor was, and they found out he is called Bae Na Ra.

After seeing that the show was his first acting debut, many were shocked that a “rookie” actor was able to showcase such raw emotions in his debut project.

Yet, while it was his debut “television” project, Bae Na Ra has had plenty of experience in the industry. He was a member of the project boy group The T-Bird, who debuted on March 14, 2019, with the single “Rock Star.”

He has also appeared on several variety shows, showcasing his unreal talent and visuals. In particular, he appeared on the well-loved show Phantom Singer 3, where he also showcased his unreal talent for singing and stage presence.

The show has continued to gain attention for the harsh reality shown of people enlisted in the military. In particular, South Korea is still very conservative when it comes to sexuality, and many have experienced bullying and prejudice.
