The movie “Deranged” isn’t Kim Dong Wan’s first screen role. In 2004, he starred in the Taekwondo film “Roundkick.”

In the science fiction horror thriller “Deranged,” Kim Dong Wan plays a homicide detective who works with his older brother to save his family from a parasite that control people’s brains. Although he had to act alongside veteran actor Kim Myung Min, Kim Dong Wan held his own weight and gave a commendable performance.

The box office results for this film was surprising. Although “Roundkick” only had 40 thousand viewers, “Deranged” collected 4.5 million viewers. It is a shame that it did not hit 5 million, for Kim Dong Wan had promised that if the movie received that many viewers he would do one-handed push-ups in the middle of Seoul.
