DramaFeedUndercover Prison King
Synopsis
Troy Poe inherits a private prison. He is a former soldier, and the place he now owns is run as a criminal operation from the inside, so he has himself booked in as an inmate to find out who is responsible. The head of the guards, a man Troy trusted, turns out to be running the ring. That leaves Troy with two ways out: convince the officials he is the owner and not a convict, or break out. While he works on it he tries to keep other people alive, among them an old prisoner whose sentence has been extended on false paperwork, and a doctor who has ended up in the middle of it.

Ratings & Reviews
A Marine captain with a full beard, wounds that heal between cuts, and a private prison run like a supervillain lair. The tough-guy dialogue is pure cardboard.
Solid prison-corruption premise and the lead carries it, but everyone around him acts like a cutout and the plot leans on conveniently blind guards.
Episode 1 might make you go "what IS this lunatic" and bail. He's my favorite short-drama actor and even I hesitated. Please stay with it!! The acting is unreal, the way his eyes go, the way he smiles, each one gets me >_<
