‘Suspicious Woman’ Kim Hae-sook has a suspicious encounter with Kim Byung-ok.
The new KBS 2TV Wednesday-Thursday drama ‘Suspicious Woman’ (directed by Park Yong-soon/written by Heo Seung-min), which will air the first and second episodes back-to-back on the 18th, is a romantic music growth drama about Oh Mal-soon, a grandmother in her seventies who suddenly turns into a twenty-year-old Oh Du-ri and enjoys her shining heyday as she challenges herself to become a singer once again to fulfill the dream she couldn‘t fulfill in her youth.
‘Suspicious Woman’, which is expected to heat up the small screen with the first and second episodes aired back-to-back, has released stills showing Oh Mal-soon (played by Kim Hae-sook) and a mysterious taxi driver (played by Kim Byung-ok), raising curiosity from the beginning.
Mal-soon makes a bombshell statement while eating with her daughter Ban Ji-sook (played by Seo Young-hee), son-in-law Choi Min-seok (played by In Kyo-jin), and granddaughter Choi Ha-na (played by Chae Won-bin). Hearing this, Ji-sook’s expression hardens, and Min-seok and Ha-na only look at Mal-soon and Ji-sook. Mal-soon‘s eyes, looking at Ji-sook who firmly blocks her words, are filled with resentment and disappointment. The story that Mal-soon told her family, and the breakfast of these uncomfortable people in the world, adds to the curiosity.
On the other hand, Mal-soon, who fought with Ji-sook and decided to run away, walks down the street without stopping. It is said that her appearance, lost in sorrow in the rain, evokes pity. At that moment, a mysterious taxi stops in front of Mal-soon, and the taxi driver’s desperate gaze signals the real beginning of the drama. Expectations for the first episode, which will reveal what will happen between Mal-soon and the taxi driver, are growing.
The production team of ‘Suspicious Girl’ said, “From the first episode, an exciting narrative unfolds in which Mal-soon‘s life is engulfed. Please look forward to the sympathy that Mal-soon’s family story will evoke from viewers, and also the changes that her life will undergo. “It will be a fun Wednesday night as we meet viewers with back-to-back broadcasts of episodes 1 and 2,” he said.
KBS 2TV’s new Wednesday-Thursday drama ‘Miss Suspicious Girl’ will air episodes 1 and 2 back-to-back today, the 18th, at 9:50 p.m.
