Actress Gong Hyo-jin opened the home-viewing front with a fresh take on dual life, seamlessly moving between an ordinary working mom and a ruthless killer.
"Daytime office worker, nighttime sniper"… a fierce meeting on her first day back
In MBC's weekend and weekday drama 'The Married Woman Killer,' which started airing on the 31st, Yoo Bo-na (played by Gong Hyo-jin) was spotlighted as she returned to her workplace after three years of parental leave.
In front of her family, she was a kind mother who handled her daughter's kindergarten drop-off and pickup, and an ordinary daughter-in-law who watched out for the mother-in-law. But her real job was the legendary sniper 'Kingfisher.' On her first day back at the company, following instructions from her team leader Kim Bong-pal (Sung Dong-il), Yoo Bo-na climbed up onto the rectory roof, cleanly eliminated a target inside a distant building, then declared, "Meeting over," revealing that her killer skills had not dulled.
A happy household with secrets kept… a brutal tracking saga involving her journalist husband is foreshadowed
Yoo Bo-na went to visit flower shop owner Bae Yun-ok (Seo Jeong-yeon), conveying a firm resolve not to let her identity be exposed to her husband Kwon Tae-seong (Jeong Jun-won), who lived in a completely different world from hers, while also showing deep affection for her family.
But near the end of the broadcast, the mood flipped as Kwon Tae-seong, a society desk reporter husband, caught wind of a breaking news report about a downtown gun sniper incident. With news of Kingfisher returning and resuming activities after four years, Kwon Tae-seong stared meaningfully at a family photo, while Yoo Bo-na also received an enigmatic message, putting her at risk of having her identity revealed and raising curiosity about how events will unfold next.
