Twelve Synopsis: A Mythical Good vs. Evil Combat Saga
Twelve tells a compelling story inspired by 12 Eastern zodiac animals. Twelve angels are seen to protect the Korea Peninsula from evil spirits under the leadership of the tiger-led Ma Dong Seok’s Tae San. Ages ago, these angels sealed off evil to hell, sacrificing four of their comrades.
But now, evil is slowly awakening, and chaos reigns. Park Hyung Sik plays Ogui, a crow-themed villain who has arisen to challenge the angels with his dark powers, fueled by a mysterious red stone. This fantasy-action bonanza directed by Kang Dae Gyu is the crossroad of mythological depth and modern superhero-ism, promising exciting action sequences with emotional stakes.

The cast of Twelve is Hallyu’s dream team. Ma Dong Seok, back to K-dramas after a decade, represents the sober Tae San. Ogui, played by Park Hyung Sik in his first-ever villain role, chilled with his dark aura. Seo In Guk plays Won Seung, a cunning monkey-symbolizing angel, while Sung Dong Il’s Marok, the only human, adds warmth.
Lee Joo Bin, Ko Kyu Pil, Kang Mi Na, Sung Yoo Bin, Ahn Ji Hye, and Regina Lei round off the team, each acting under the unique zodiac theme. Fans are already frenzied for this gang with Hyung Sik’s daring antagonist role.
