Actress Shim Eun-kyung has been cast in the new tvN drama "How to Become a Property Owner in Korea" (written by Oh Han-ki/directed by Lim Pil-sung/planned by Studio Dragon/produced by Mind Mark and Studio 329/abbreviated as "Property Owner").
Featuring Shim Eun-kyung, Ha Jung-woo, Lim Soo-jung, Kim Jun-han, Jung Soo-jung, and more, "Property Owner" boasts a splendid casting lineup of reliable actors. It has risen as one of the most anticipated works of the first half of 2026, portraying a story of a property owner struggling with debt who gets involved in crime to protect their family and properties, which are more valuable than life.
Shim Eun-kyung plays the role of Yona, an operative at Real Capital who keeps a close eye on and pressures the main character, Gi Su-jong (played by Ha Jung-woo). Yona, adopted overseas as a child, is expected to inject mysterious charm into the tension of the drama.
From the films "Sunny," "Masquerade," "Miss Granny," "The Mayor," "Psychokinesis," to the recently released "The Killers," Shim Eun-kyung has consistently proven her unique presence and talent in each work with her charm and intense acting skills. Additionally, she made history as the first Korean actress to win the Best Actress Award at the Japanese Academy Awards in 2020, solidifying her status as a global actress.
Her return to the small screen after six years, having chosen "Property Owner" as her comeback project, is drawing interest in how she will showcase a new transformation in her acting following the well-made drama "Money Game," which is still talked about among K-drama fans.
Recently, after a hiatus of 11 years, she has made appearances on entertainment shows, bringing great joy to the public through various platforms and programs such as MBC's "Hangout With Yoo?", tvN's "You Quiz on the Block," and the YouTube channel "MMTG Civilization Express." Expectations are rising for Shim Eun-kyung's future activities as she is set to present a new side of herself through "Property Owner."
