'Fifties Professionals' has released serious yet funny teaser and moving posters, raising expectations.

The new MBC Friday-Saturday drama 'Fifties Professionals' (planned by Kwon Seong-chang, directed by Han Dong-hwa, scripted by Jang Won-seop, produced by Jumbo Film and Studio Dragon), which premieres on May 22, tells the story of three men who once had a bit of flair despite appearing ordinary, who are set in motion again by fate. It is a salty action comedy about true professionals who have run through 50% of their lives, pushed around by the world and with bodies rusted, yet still driven by loyalty and instinct. The three men, who once made their names at the top of their fields, are demoted to the remote island of Yeongseondo after 'the incident of that day,' and the series promises to humorously depict their journey to uncover the 'truth of that day,' which has been on hold for 10 years, drawing significant interest.

Shin Ha-kyun plays Jeong Ho-myung, a chef at a restaurant who has been on standby for 10 years while hiding his identity as a National Intelligence Service agent; Oh Jung-se portrays Bong Je-soon, a North Korean special operations agent who has lost his memory; and Heo Sung-tae takes on the role of Kang Beom-ryong, a former legendary gangster who is now a convenience store owner unable to even earn minimum wage. The three actors embark on new acting transformations.

Among these, the teaser poster released on the 21st captures a bird's-eye view of Shin Ha-kyun, Oh Jung-se, and Heo Sung-tae sitting around a round table in a three-shot, immediately grabbing attention. While the three men gaze seriously into the void, the Jjamppong, Jjajangmyeon, and half-and-half Jjam-bokkeum-bap menus placed before them evoke laughter. The poster wittily conveys the tone and manner of 'Fifties Professionals,' where both action and comedy can be enjoyed simultaneously, while highlighting the contrast between the three characters, maximizing the fun of viewing.

The accompanying moving poster (https://tv.naver.com/h/98099582) peels back the mysterious relationship between Shin Ha-kyun, Oh Jung-se, and Heo Sung-tae within the unique black comedy wit and humorous mood of 'Fifties Professionals,' heightening curiosity. In particular, a single revolver placed at the center of the round table steals the spotlight. The subtle tension among the three men, who watch breathlessly as the gun spins like a Russian roulette, adds to the suspense. This metaphorically expresses the tense relationship of the three men chasing and being chased, raising questions about how the relationships of Jeong Ho-myung, Bong Je-soon, and Kang Beom-ryong will be portrayed in the drama. Furthermore, the narration "On that night, our fate changed," accompanied by a comedic BGM, leaves viewers wondering what the incident from 10 years ago was that entangled them and what prompted them to move again, causing anticipation for the premiere of 'Fifties Professionals' to skyrocket.

'Fifties Professionals' will premiere on May 22 at 9:50 p.m. as the follow-up to '21st Century Grand Duchess.'
