Actor Kim Moo-jun proved his global popularity with the Japanese TBS drama 'Caster.'

On the 13th, the TBS Sunday Theater drama 'Caster' premiered, recording a viewership rating of 14.2%, marking a successful start by capturing both ratings and popularity right out of the gate. This continues a string of hits following 'Black Pean 2,' reaffirming Kim Moo-jun's steady rise.

'Caster' is a social entertainment drama that follows the story of a news program, 'News Gate,' as it tracks down hidden truths and exposes societal injustices. Kim Moo-jun plays the role of reporter program assistant Choi Jae-sung, portraying a character that convincingly encompasses perspectives from both South Korea and Japan. There are high expectations for his performance in the drama.

Previously, the concluded 'Thank You for Today' was broadcast in 60 countries worldwide, garnering a warm response from international viewers, and through this, Kim Moo-jun solidified his status as a global actor. In the latter half of the year, he will challenge himself in the romantic comedy genre with the new SBS drama 'Kiss is Just for Fun!', further broadening his acting spectrum.

Meanwhile, the Japanese TBS drama 'Caster,' in which Kim Moo-jun appears, airs every Sunday night at 9 p.m., and starting from the 20th, it will also be available to global viewers, including those in South Korea, through Netflix.
