The global streaming service Disney+ unveiled a new poster of its upcoming original series Vigilante, written by Lee Min Seop, directed by Choi Jeong Yeol, and starring Nam Joo HyukYoo Ji TaeKim So Jin, and Lee Joon Hyuk.

The K-drama tells the story of Kim Ji Yong (Nam Joo Hyuk). By day, Kim Ji Yong is a dedicated police academy student, upholding the law as a model of virtue. But by night, he transforms into a Vigilante, taking justice into his own hands and passing judgment on criminals who have evaded the clutches of the law.

The newly released poster features two contrasting looks of Kim Ji Yong - one is the face he wants people to see, and the other is the one he hides.

On one side, his face is concealed beneath a deep black hood, while on the other, he stands proudly in a police uniform. This stark contrast represents Kim Ji Yong's dual persona: a model police academy student during the day and a vigilante at night. The bloodstains, the scars on one side of the face, and his cold gaze reflect his relentless determination in pursuing criminals who have evaded the law, no matter what comes his way.

On the other hand, the other half shows Kim Ji Yong as a model police academy student neatly dressed, the opposite of a Vigilante, raising expectations for Nam Joo Hyuk's performance. 

The caption "Now, I will judge again" foreshadows the vigilante's intentions as he seeks to mend the imperfections in the legal system and deliver justice following his moral code. 

Vigilante will premiere exclusively on Disney+ on November 8, releasing two episodes every Wednesday.
