KBS2's new Saturday-Sunday miniseries 'Eunsu Good Day' (written by Jeon Young-shin, director Song Hyun-wook), which is scheduled to premiere on September 20, 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.
Lee Young-ae plays the role of Kang Eun-soo, who was pushed to the brink overnight due to her husband's deteriorating condition and economic bankruptcy. One day, while struggling to survive the collapse of her daily life, Eun-soo, who found a suspicious bag that someone left behind, becomes entangled in a partnership with her daughter's after-school art instructor Lee Kyung (Kim Young-kwang). Through this work, Lee Young-ae will show her unrivaled presence once again by unraveling the character in the extreme situation with a firm and deep emotional line.
In the still released, Lee Young-ae clearly shows the life story of Kang Eun-soo, who is in a crisis situation and cracks in ordinary daily life with only three cuts. First of all, in the image of Lee Young-ae smiling brightly while drawing a heart toward her daughter on her way to school, the warm side of Kang Eun-soo, who feels small happiness as an ordinary housewife and mother, can be seen intact. A neat apron, a bright expression, and a moment of ordinary and small life create an intense contrast with the tragedy to be encountered later, adding to the sense of immersion.
Eun-soo was also seen working in a uniform at the mart. Lee Young-ae's face, who is working calmly, reveals Eun-soo's livelihood life, which silently survives the difficult reality in the space of ordinary labor.
In the subsequent still, the atmosphere is clearly different from the previous two, drawing attention. Lee Young-ae's anxious eyes, tightly clenched lips, and stiff posture, which seem to have witnessed a shocking scene, suggest a crack in tragedy permeating daily life and give tension. The detailed emotional change of Lee Young-ae, which changes step by step, amplifies questions about the future development of the play and adds depth to the character narrative.
The production team said, "From the desperation hidden behind a bright smile to the power to silently endure the moment it collapses, Lee Young-ae expressed the extreme emotional determination and made the scene die every moment."Lee Young-ae's acting will lead Kang Eun-soo's future crises and choices more convincingly," he said, asking for a lot of expectations and attention from viewers.
'Eunsu Good Day' is a well-made work in which 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. In addition, the three main actors, Lee Young-ae, Kim Young-kwang, and Park Yong-woo, as well as acting actors such as Bae Soo-bin, Cho Yeon-hee and Hwang Jae-yeol, are drawing attention as the most anticipated films in the second half of the year.
Meanwhile, KBS2's new Saturday miniseries 'Eunsu Good Day' will premiere at 9:20 p.m. on September 20.
