My Take
Kim Eui-sung is one of those actors whose face anchors a film the moment he appears. A Seoul National University graduate who rose through 1980s and 90s stage work, he belongs to a first generation of Korean screen actors who earned their craft the hard way. From The Day a Pig Fell into the Well to Train to Busan, he keeps turning up at pivotal moments, sharpening scenes from the margins rather than chasing the lead. I value that kind of dependable, character-driven work enormously. His long run on series like Taxi Driver only confirms how trusted a presence he has become.
