Actor Lee Si-eon shared his thoughts on appearing in 'Husband-Killer'.

On the afternoon of the 30th, a production presentation for MBC's Friday-Saturday drama 'Husband-Killer' (script by Kim Eun-hee, directed by Yoon Jong-ho and Kim Ji-hoon) was held at Golden Mouse Hall, MBC in Sangam-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul. Director Yoon Jong-ho, actors Gong Hyo-jin, Jung Joon-won, Lee Si-eon, Moo Jin-seong, Choi Woo-sung, and Lee Eun-saem attended.

Regarding his character Lee Dong-jin in 'Husband-Killer', Lee Si-eon explained: "He is a police officer who wants to catch 'Kingfisher' more than anyone else. Dong-jin has a painful past connected to Kingfisher."

Lee Si-eon stated, "While filming, I pondered how we should respond to killers who carry out private revenge."

He added, "This time, I portrayed a character with a painful family history. He and Taeseong dreamed of becoming reporters since their school days but later changed their paths, carrying a heartbreaking story. While others cheer for Kingfisher, Dong-jin views him from a different perspective."

'Husband-Killer' is a drama depicting a working mother's struggle to protect her work-life balance while holding one of the most brutal professions in the world. The story unfolds with balanced tension among the differing convictions of Yoo Bo-na (played by Gong Hyo-jin), a killer who eliminates criminals; Kwon Tae-seong (played by Jung Joon-won), Bo-na's husband and a social affairs reporter who relentlessly pursues the truth behind the case; and Lee Dong-jin (played by Lee Si-eon), Tae-seong's close friend and an officer destined to catch criminals. The drama draws attention as the next project from director Yoon Jong-ho, who previously led a phenomenon-level hit with 'Backpacker'.

In the drama, the Crane Electronic Sales Team 3 operates under the guise of ordinary office workers while maintaining a strict double life. They are the "Client" disposal unit that privately eliminates ruthless criminals evading the law by exploiting their specialized skills: genius hacker Ki Young-do (played by Moo Jin-seong), weapons expert Bong Tae-min (played by Kim Nam-hee), poison specialist Oh Hyun-nam (played by Ha Yul-ri), medical accident specialist Ko Young-gap (played by Heo Jae-ho), and administrative officer Yang Ye-sol (played by Kim Ga-hee). Each member uses their unique expertise to take down criminals and bring justice to victims.

'Husband-Killer' is based on the popular Kakao webtoon of the same name and will premiere at 9:50 p.m. on July 31st.
