Actor Kim Young-kwang turns into a two-faced character who hides secrets beyond the canvas.

KBS2's new Saturday miniseries 
'Walking On Thin Ice' (scripted by Jeon Young-shin, director Song Hyun-wook) is a dangerous partnership diary conducted by Kang Eun-soo, a parent who wants to protect her family, and Lee Kyung, a two-faced teacher, with a drug bag obtained by accident.
In the play, Kim Young-kwang plays a two-faced Lee Kyung, a prestigious university graduate during the day, a popular after-school art instructor, and a mysterious club MD at night. She is a teacher who receives the love of female students at the middle school where Eun-soo (Lee Young-ae)'s daughter Su-ah attends, and behind the scenes, she is a person whose name, age, and occupation are mysterious. He is at a crossroads of choice, receiving a partnership offer with a drug bag from Eun-soo who needs money.

The second teaser poster released shows Kim Young-kwang sitting in front of the easel in a space infused with warm sunlight. However, his gaze is not on the canvas, but on the inadvertently placed Boston bag, creating a strange tension. The calm expression and sharp eyes in contrast amplify the curiosity about Lee Kyung's real face hidden beyond the canvas.




"Is there a person in the world who only does good things to get rich?The meaningful question " reveals the harsh reality and complex inner side that Lee Kyung faced. Lee Kyung, played by Kim Young-kwang, is a key figure who crosses the boundaries of good and evil and leads the tension of the play. In the play, he will present an attractive character with a calm and subtle emotional line that is sometimes unknown.

The production team aimed to capture another face hidden in Lee Kyung's seemingly calm appearance in this teaser poster. The image of a heartwarming art instructor sitting in front of the easel and the gap created by the mysterious gaze toward Bostonback symbolically shows Lee Kyung's identity with two faces. "We can expect how Kim Young-kwang will portray Lee Kyung, who is gradually changing in an unintended direction through this copy phrase, which is also an actual line in the play."

Director Song Hyun-wook, who is recognized as a master of detail in various genres, and writer Jeon Young-shin, who boasts delicate writing skills with dense reality, are in harmony. Starting with Lee Young-ae, Kim Young-kwang and Park Yong-woo, actors with strong acting skills such as Bae Soo-bin, Cho Yeon-hee and Hwang Jae-yeol are drawing attention as the most anticipated works in the second half of the year.




Meanwhile, KBS 2TV's new Saturday miniseries 'Walking On Thin Ice' will premiere at 9:20 p.m. on September 20.
