Actor Shim Eun-kyung is flawlessly pulling off her first-ever villain role as a so-called 'clear-eyed psycho.'

On the 11th, tvN’s Sat-Sun drama How to Become a Building Owner in South Korea (hereafter 'Building Owner') unveiled still cuts of Shim Eun-kyung’s character, who commits brutal acts behind an innocent face.

In the series, Shim plays Yona, a person who won’t hesitate to kill if it means pushing a redevelopment project through. Keeping a close eye on Gi Su-jong (played by Ha Jung-woo), who has emerged as a variable in the deal, she heightens the tension with an unreadable stance that offers help and issues threats at the same time.

In the newly released stills, Yona’s sly smile and chilling aura signal a massive incident about to explode, grabbing viewers’ attention.

After the broadcast, viewers reacted passionately: "Her eyes change in an instant," "Anytime Shim Eun-kyung appears, it instantly feels like a thriller," and "She acts scary well," praising her performance.

Meanwhile, 'Building Owner' airs every Saturday and Sunday at 9:10 p.m. KST, delivering an icy chill to living rooms.
