"I will help you. Your death..."
MBC's new Friday-Saturday drama 'Mary Kills People' has made a striking announcement with a 'teaser poster' that signals the start of a thrilling 'extreme plot twist suspense.'
The new Friday-Saturday drama 'Mary Kills People' (planned by Kwon Seong-chang/director Park Jun-woo/writer Lee Soo-ah/produced by Mister Romance, Moving Pictures Company, Studio Anjaillene), which will premiere on August 1 (Friday) at 10 p.m., is a suspense drama that deals with the story of a doctor who assists terminally ill patients in dying and a detective who tracks them.
'Mary Kills People' is generating expectations through the collaboration of director Park Jun-woo, known for his dynamic action and stylish direction in 'Taxi Driver' and 'Crash,' and writer Lee Soo-ah, who has vividly depicted unique character narratives in the films 'The Laws of Attraction', 'My Special Brother', and the drama 'Unemployment Benefits Romance.' Moreover, a powerful lineup of trusted actors including Lee Bo-young, Lee Min-ki, Kang Ki-young, Baek Hyun-jin, Kwon Hae-hyo, Kim Tae-woo, and Seo Young-hee has completed, promising a new horizon in genre works never seen before.
In relation to this, the 'teaser poster' for 'Mary Kills People', released today, consists solely of important 'objects' from the drama, visually conveying its implicit symbolism.
The 'teaser poster' features a champagne glass held by someone's hand, which sparkles brilliantly, creating a peculiar sense of tension. Furthermore, in the champagne glass, countless bubbles rise as if alive, and an enigmatic image resembling a skull stands out, heightening the sense of unease.
In particular, the shocking phrase 'I will help you. Your death...' seems to be sucked into the champagne glass, gradually fading away as if heading towards a dark abyss, provoking curiosity. Additionally, the colorless black-and-white hand and the golden champagne glass create an extreme contrast, embodying coldness without warmth and dazzling brilliance, respectively, leaving one wondering about their significance. Through the 'teaser poster' that leaves a strong aftertaste with just one 'object', it focuses attention on how the narrative of the doctor assisting in assisted dying unfolds at the boundary between life and death.
The production team noted, "The 'teaser poster' embodies not just a simple curtain-raiser for the drama but symbolically captures the meaning and suspenseful atmosphere that permeates 'Mary Kills People.'" They added, "Please look forward to 'Mary Kills People,' which foreshadows an unprecedented extreme plot twist from the unique mood of the 'teaser poster.'"
