PETALING JAYA: Former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak has got tongues wagging on social media when he was spotted making a "cameo appearance" in a South Korean television drama.
In the Korean drama Terius Behind Me, Najib appeared for one second in a television news footage during a scene where National Intelligence Service (NIS) deputy chief Kwon Young-Shil was receiving updates from her subordinate on NIS agent Kim Bon's activities.
Najib's television footage appearance is believed to have been from the time he was brought in for questioning at the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC).
That was when the MACC recorded Najib's statement over the probe into SRC International Sdn Bhd, a former subsidiary of the controversial sovereign wealth fund 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB).
According to Asianwiki, the drama Terius Behind Me sees South Korean actor So Ji-Sub, playing the role of Kim, a legendary NIS agent who lives a life of solitude after being involved in a failed secret operation.
However, he becomes entangled with his neighbour Go-Ae Rin (Jung In Sun) when he helps to uncover a conspiracy.
Meanwhile, Twitter users expressed their excitement in spotting Najib in the drama.
Ridhuanhussain, who screen-shot the scene, said the title of the drama should no longer be called Terius Behind me but "Najib Behind Me".

Zackkk said: "I found Najib in Terius Behind me".
However, not all were so eagle-eyed. User Jay said he did not notice Najib's appearance in the drama.
"I had to watch the drama again to notice him," he said.
