Veteran actress Kim Mi-kyung, aged 62, is set to join the cast of 'Shin-i-rang Law Office,' teaming up with Yoo Yeon-seok as mother and son. The age difference between the two actors is 21 years.
Premiering on March 13, the new SBS Friday-Saturday drama 'Shin-i-rang Law Office' follows the story of a 'possessed lawyer' Shin-i-rang (played by Yoo Yeon-seok) who resolves the grudges of the deceased, and a 'cold-blooded elite lawyer' Han Na-hyun (played by Lee Som) who stakes everything on winning cases. This peculiar yet heartwarming adventure promises to deliver a unique narrative.
In the drama, Kim Mi-kyung takes on the role of Park Kyung-hwa, Shin-i-rang's mother. Kyung-hwa is the owner of 'Heart-Pounding Butcher Shop,' a skilled butcher who has raised her son alone. Despite her rough and strong hands from handling meat, she possesses a deep and warm affection for her child and neighbors, adding depth and vitality to the storyline.
Kim Mi-kyung has consistently built a solid filmography through her ongoing work in various projects. Known for her standout performances in popular dramas such as 'Welcome to Samdalri,' 'Flowers Bloom at Night,' and 'Doctor Cha Jung-sook,' she has proven her prowess as a 'trustworthy actress' with her emotionally resonant performances.
Having showcased her limitless ability to portray diverse characters, Kim Mi-kyung will now serve as a reliable anchor for Yoo Yeon-seok, adding excitement to the drama. Her nuanced maternal instincts hidden behind a tough exterior, along with the special chemistry between the characters, are highly anticipated.
