On May 20, Swings stunned fans by unveiling his first-ever acting profile photos on Instagram — a dramatic shift from his fierce rapper image to a softer, more mature vibe.

That day, Swings posted several photos with the caption "First actor profile."

In the newly released shots, Swings pulls off a range of looks — from a clean, dandy suit to a casual checkered shirt — all styled with a neat, polished haircut. The gentle yet grounded mood stands in stark contrast to the intense persona he shows on hip-hop stages, instantly drawing attention.

Fans reacted with excitement, leaving comments like "Your drive to challenge yourself is so cool" and "Even your overall impression looks so much kinder now."

Meanwhile, signaling a serious turn toward acting, Swings recently wrapped all filming for the short drama Gwangan, in which he plays the loyal bodyguard-warrior Namhyul. Public attention is now locked on Swings as he gears up to reinvent himself beyond rap and establish himself as an actor.
