His warm personality and humor are enough to make anyone fall for him. Yet, he rarely has lead roles.

Kang Ki Young finally has a new role unlike any other before. We will see him portray the “villain” in the second season of The Uncanny Encounter.

The charming actor portrays Pil Gwang in The Uncanny Counter 2. He is one of the baddies that the Counter Squad has to go up against.

Kang Ki Young is nearly unrecognizable as Pil Gwang. If this is what bad looks like, maybe we don’t wanna be good. 

The long, slicked-back hair and dapper suit are low-key giving Loki, though, and let’s be for real for a second…

Loki was always our favorite Marvel Cinematic Universe character.

We’re not the only ones simping for this new baddie version of Kang Ki Young. Netizens are all confessing they are down bad for him, although The Uncanny Counter 2 has not even premiered yet.
