Even at the brink, Kim Hye-soo is still Kim Hye-soo. Actress Kim Hye-soo is making a powerful presence.

Kim Hye-soo is starring as Kyung-hee, a successful influencer, in Coupang Play's "An Affair Is Not a Problem." She is showcasing her charm through acting that tones down the drama to enhance realism, bold costumes, and striking hairstyles. In particular, Kyung-hee's line, "I wish it had been an affair," marks the beginning of a full-blown brutal farce, compressively portraying the fate of a character who must plunge into chaos. Kim Hye-soo's exceptional control of pacing stood out in this scene.

In episodes 3 and 4 of "An Affair Is Not a Problem," released on the 7th, Kyung-hee is depicted as having suddenly become part of a corpse disposal team. Kim Hye-soo delicately built up Kyung-hee's psychology at her breaking point, persuasively conveying the character's human anguish. Scenes where she says she will report it to the police yet keeps repeating, "It will spread all over the internet," and "No matter what I do later, a label like this will stick to me forever," perfectly embodied Kyung-hee as an ordinary person.

Her panic upon receiving secretly filmed footage of the accident scene was also indispensable. She ramped up tension by meticulously layering Kyung-hee's emotions as they shifted from anxiety to anger, shouting, "There was no one there! Isn't this a fake camera? Damn it! Damn it, damn it, damn it!!" Meanwhile, in scenes where she tries to calm her family by saying, "Everyone is pretending not to care," she conveyed the weight of life carried by Kyung-hee, the head of household with so much responsibility.

Kim Hye-soo expressed Kyung-hee's chaos and madness through her unique vocal delivery and substantial presence. Following a radical style transformation, she is leading the work with solid acting.

Meanwhile, the Coupang Play series "An Affair Is Not a Problem" is a chain-reaction black comedy about a popular influencer couple who have consumed happy family life as content, and their neighbor doctor couple embroiled in a messy divorce lawsuit, who become entangled in secrets so unbearable that even an affair seems trivial.

New episodes are released every Friday at 8 p.m.
