Lee Soon-jae, controversy over abuse of power erupted

KBS2's new Wednesday-Thursday drama 'Bullshit', starring actor Lee Soon-jae, has been confirmed to be scheduled for September.

'Gagsori', which will be aired for the first time in September, is a situation comedy drama that depicts the cheerful and quirky growth of old age portrayed by highly active seniors and 'Sophie', a former police dog.

In the play, Lee Soon-jae plays the role of 'Lee Soon-jae', a representative actor of the Republic of Korea who has been responsible for the joys and sorrows of the entire nation through his delicate acting skills over a long period of time. Sunjae gets caught up in an incident on the set of a drama and goes from a national actor to an abusive actor. In great shock, Sun-jae runs away to Geoje Island, where he meets the local dog 'Sophie'. From one day on, Sophie's words begin to sound like human language to Sunjae. Sunjae begins the second chapter of his life by digging into the mysterious events that occurred in the neighborhood with Sophie.

Lee Soon-jae, a great actor in his 68th year of acting, received unwavering support and love from the public not only on screen and TV, but also with his friendly and warm appearance on the entertainment show 'Grandpas Over Flowers.' In addition, Lee Soon-jae's undiminished acting passion, which has consistently appeared on stage in plays such as 'Who Doesn't Know This Person', 'Longevity Store', and 'King Lear', is becoming an example to everyone.

In particular, Lee Soon-jae, who sincerely tells the narrative of his role through deep acting skills regardless of genre, is looking forward to the unique healing fantasy that will be presented through communication with Sophie.

The drama 'Bullshit', which was selected and supported by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism and the Korea Creative Content Agency as an OTT-specialized content, is written by Byun Sook-kyung, who wrote Nonstop 5 (MBC), and 'Third Person Revenge' (Disney Plus) and 'Handsome Jeongeum'. Director Kim Yu-jin, whose directing skills have been recognized by Asian viewers through works such as '(SBS), have teamed up.

'Bullshit', which will make viewers laugh and cry with a healing fantasy that cannot be determined whether it is a drama or reality, with actor Lee Soon-jae in the play, will be broadcast for the first time in September.
