Kim Kap-soo (Korean: 김갑수; born April 7, 1957) is a South Korean actor. Since his acting debut in 1977, Kim has had a long career on the stage, in television dramas and film. In addition to acting full-time, he also has his own master class acting studio.
Career
[edit]Kim Kap-soo began his acting career in 1977 as the first generation of the Hyundai Theater.[1]
Kim Kap-soo gained recognition for his outstanding performance in the 1984 play "The Silence of the Master," which portrayed the life of Han Yong-un (Monk Manhae). Kim dedicatedly portrayed the role of Han Yong-un for three consecutive months at the Seoul Sesil Theater.[2][3]
He further solidified his reputation with roles in movies like The Taebaek Mountain and "Horrible Love." In 2000, in the KBS1 drama Taejo Wang Geon, Kim Gap-soo shines as a loyal royal scribe, showcasing his talent and establishing himself as a standout in the series.[3]
He, who is also the head of the theater company 'Actors' World', took time between his appearances in movies and dramas to perform the charity play 'Tongbuk-eo' for the underprivileged in 10 cities across the country, including Incheon, Gwacheon, and Pyeongchang, at the end of 2008. He found the source of his strength to be a 'veteran' in movies and TV dramas in his 25 years of theater experience.[4]
