Actors Kim Hye-soo and Kim Ji-hoon fully transform into an envy-inducing star influencer couple with a picture-perfect, for-the-cameras ‘show-window’ marriage.

On the 7th, the Coupang Play series Affair Is Not The Problem (hereafter ‘Affair’) unveiled still cuts featuring the pair.

First, the incomparable Kim Hye-soo plays Kyung-hee, an influencer wife. In the stills, Kyung-hee exudes the allure of a confident career woman—sophisticated and self-assured—befitting a self-made interior brand CEO and public figure.

But in a starkly contrasting, unfamiliar space, she closes her eyes and sinks into deep thought, giving off an eerie chill. At the peak of success, she faces an unexpected crisis, and curiosity spikes over what choice she will make to protect a life that’s starting to crumble.

Kim Ji-hoon, taking on a bold transformation as Kyung-hee’s younger husband Jae-hong, also reveals an unpredictable duality. In one still, Jae-hong smiles leisurely in a sharp suit with a wine glass in hand; in another, he’s frozen with shock after witnessing something unexpected in the dead of night.

Meanwhile, ‘Affair’ is a runaway, chain-reaction black comedy where a popular influencer couple who’ve sold the image of a happy home and their doctor neighbors locked in a mud-slinging divorce get entangled in an explosive secret—one so big it makes even an affair seem trivial. The series premieres on the 31st at 8 p.m.
