Tempest is a Korean political-action thriller released on Disney+ in 2025, one of the platform's most ambitious and expensive Korean originals to date. Directed by Kim Hee-won and mounted with the scale and star power of a feature film, it was among the most anticipated K-dramas of the year.
Jun Ji-hyun (credited internationally as Gianna Jun) stars as Seo Mun-ju, a celebrated former diplomat and ambassador drawn into a lethal geopolitical conspiracy, while Gang Dong-won plays a mysterious mercenary who becomes her uneasy ally. As an assassination and a web of international intrigue threaten the Korean peninsula, the two are pulled across borders in a high-stakes game of espionage. American actor John Cho appears in a key supporting role, underscoring the show's international ambitions.
Positioned as a globe-trotting tentpole, Tempest drew huge attention for pairing two of Korea's biggest screen stars and for its cinematic production values, delivering shootouts, political brinkmanship, and shifting allegiances across its run. It streams on Disney+.
