The Great Actor (Korean: 대배우; RR: Daebaewoo) is a 2016 South Korean film directed by Seok Min-woo and starring Oh Dal-su.[1] It marked Oh's first starring role in a feature film.[2]

Plot

Stage actor Jang Sung-pil (Oh Dal-su) has performed in minor roles for 20 years and is currently playing the part of a dog in a children's play, but he dreams of becoming a great actor. As he watches fellow performer Sul Gang-sik (Yoon Je-moon), who used to act with him before making it big, Sung-pil believes that his dream is still possible. His hopes rise when world-famous director Cannes Park holds an audition for the character of a priest in his new film Devil’s Blood. When Sung-pil is accused of being an incompetent father and husband, he claims that he will be performing in the Cannes Park movie with Sul Gang-sik. To turn his lies into truth, Sung-pil embarks on a desperate journey to stardom, using every means possible.[3][4]
