The actor Lee Si-kang appeared as a cold and crafty ambitious figure in the drama "First Lady," overturning the flow of the plot.
In MBN's Wednesday-Thursday miniseries "First Lady" (writer Kim Hyung-wan, director Lee Ho-hyun, produced by Studio Gidam, Artist Studio, Roadshow Plus) in episodes 6–8 Lee Si-kang used Lee Hwa-jin (played by Han Soo-ah) to pressure Cha Soo-yeon (played by Eugene), maximized the confrontation with Hyun Min-chul (played by Ji Hyun-woo) and displayed a strong presence.
Yang Hoon (played by Lee Si-kang) was being investigated over alleged illegal succession when he was released after the president personally halted the investigation under Soo-yeon's pressure. He realized that Soo-yeon suspected Hwa-jin of being Min-chul's affair partner, and he revealed his ruthless nature by kidnapping Hwa-jin and proposing a transaction for his release.
After leaving the detention center, Yang Hoon immediately met Soo-yeon and exposed Hwa-jin's pregnancy, throwing her into confusion. He then said, "At first I wondered what she was, but after cleaning her up and oiling her, I saw she was something. You have an eye, sister," planting in Soo-yeon the fear that Min-chul might be the father of Hwa-jin's child and cleverly provoking a confrontation with Min-chul.
Later Yang Hoon handed Hwa-jin over to Soo-yeon to make the public take her side, but unexpectedly the tide turned after Min-chul obtained Soo-yeon's compromising book and a recording tape. As the vote on the special law for workers began to go in Min-chul's favor, Yang Hoon even blocked the road to prevent Min-chul from entering the National Assembly, escalating tension to the highest level.
In this way Lee Si-kang powerfully portrayed Yang Hoon's ruthlessness and craftiness, who spares no means for profit, further enhancing the story's immersion. Attention is focused on Lee Si-kang's acting to see what shockwaves the precarious power struggle Yang Hoon will wage will have on the relationship between Soo-yeon and Min-chul.
Lee Si-kang's performance, which creates tension just by appearing, can be seen in MBN's Wednesday-Thursday miniseries "First Lady," broadcast every Wednesday and Thursday at 10:20 p.m.<
