'Shin I-rang law office' Yoo Yeon-seok delivered a possessed-like performance from the first episode.
On the 13th, in the first broadcast of SBS's new Fri-Sat drama 'Shin I-rang law office' (written by Kim Ga-young·Kang Cheol-gyu, directed by Shin Jung-hoon, produced by StudioS·Mongjakso), Yoo Yeon-seok plays the ghost-seeing lawyer 'Shin I-rang'. In just one episode, he completed an exciting story with performances that captured both freshness and fun amid unpredictable developments.
I-rang appeared as a passionate lawyer and immediately drew attention. With a confident tone and gaze, he did his best preparing to enter the bar, encouraging even viewers. I-rang couldn't just pass by a grandmother selling vegetables on the street, and despite repeated rejection from interviews, he treated his family with a bright expression, showing warm humanity. On the other hand, when he was treated unfairly in an interview because of a case involving his father in the past, the cold look on his face added curiosity to the narrative.
An unbelievable thing happened to this I-rang. After founding the law office, he accidentally lit an incense burner that was in the office and saw a ghost. Terrified, he ran around, then tried getting angry at the ghost that kept following him and even sought help from a priest. But the refusal lasted only a short time. After hearing the wrongful story related to the death and the family's story, I-rang accepted the ghost Lee Kang-pung ( Heo Sung-tae) as his first client and teamed up to help him, raising expectations for his future actions.
Yoo Yeon-seok solidly led the first story of a character who experienced a spectacular change. As I-rang sees ghosts and goes through a confusing process, he carried the drama excitingly with diverse comedic acting. Yoo Yeon-seok also raised immersion by freely switching to possession acting that instantly transformed from a warm, affectionate self into a rough Chungcheong-do dialect and tough gestures. With his riveting performance opening 'Shin I-rang law office' strongly, attention is focused on what stories will unfold next.
Meanwhile, the second episode of SBS's new Fri-Sat drama 'Shin I-rang law office,' starring Yoo Yeon-seok along with Esom and Kim Kyeong-nam, will air on the 14th at 9:50 p.m.
