Lee Sun-kyun, bushy beard and hair ‘shock visual’
SBS' new Friday-Saturday drama 'Law' is a thrilling revenge drama between 'money merchant' Eun-yong (played by Lee Sun-kyun) and 'legal technician' Jun-kyung (Moon Chae-won) who fight against the cartel of 'law' and 'jjen'. Writer Kim Won-seok of the dramas 'The Queen's Classroom' and 'Descendants of the Sun' and director Lee Won-tae of the movies 'The Villain' and 'Captain Kim Chang-soo' join forces, and there is a lineup of trustworthy actors including Lee Sun-gyun, Moon Chae-won, Kang Yoo-seok, Park Hoon, and Kim Hong-pa. It's done.
In 'The Law', Lee Sun-kyun plays the role of Eun-yong, the CEO of a global private equity fund that earns astronomical profits. While Eunyong was living in seclusion in Mongolia and was called a 'reclusive money merchant', he returned to his homeland for the first time in 10 years, vowing to take revenge on 'the one person he was thankful for'. It raises curiosity about how Eun-Yong's actions will be portrayed as he takes revenge against the cartel of greed in collusion with the law and Zhen.
In relation to this, Lee Seon-kyun's performance in Mongolia was captured as he completely immersed himself in the role of Eun-yong and played an active role as a daily bag. In the play, there is a picturesque scene where Eunyong rides a horse across the vast plains while dressed as a Mongolian nomad. Eun-yong, who lives a leisurely life and gets along with the local Mongolian people without hesitation, gets a serious look on his face when he receives a phone call from Korea, and after reviewing the documents, he looks at himself in the mirror and flashes a fierce look in his eyes. Tensions are rising as to what decision Eun-yong, who left Korea saying he would never return, made to decide to return after 10 years.
Lee Sun-kyun's Mongolian location last summer was a 4-night, 6-day schedule. Seon-gyun Lee worked hard to become a silver dragon himself, including learning Mongolian to use in conversations with locals and practicing horseback riding to capture the open scenery of Mongolia at a glance. Lee Sun-gyun said in his previously released production account of 'The Law', "It was my first time going to a country called Mongolia while filming, and I was very surprised. “It felt like I was on another planet,” he said, raising expectations by adding, “I think it will be a refreshing and enjoyable scene for the viewers.”
The production team said, “Thanks to the hard work of many people, we were able to complete the filming without any problems despite the difficult filming schedule,” adding, “There were many great scenes that were only possible because of Lee Sun-kyun. “The exotic scenery of Mongolia and Lee Seon-kyun’s appearance naturally immersed in it will make you unable to take your eyes off it for even a moment.”
‘The Law’ will premiere on January 6th at 10 PM.
