Yoo Yeon-seok Takes on a Spirited Lawyer Role in 'Shin-Irang Law Office'

Actor Yoo Yeon-seok is set to star as lawyer Shin-Irang in the upcoming SBS drama 'Shin-Irang Law Office,' premiering on the 13th.

In this new Friday-Saturday drama, Yoo Yeon-seok plays Shin-Irang, a lawyer who starts his legal career later in life. Despite facing repeated rejections from law firms for unknown reasons, he decides to open his own practice. His office, located in room 501 of the Okcheon Building, which was previously a shaman's house, changes his life dramatically. He begins to see ghosts, and the intense emotions of the deceased, filled with injustice and anger, start to possess him unexpectedly.

His changing expressions, speech, and actions during possession moments hint at a diverse and engaging performance. The drama is expected to deliver unexpected plot twists, humor, satisfaction, and deep emotional impact.
