‘A Day of Good Fortune’ Set to Premiere with Lee Young-ae Teasing Another Iconic Role

KBS 2TV's new Saturday-Sunday miniseries, ‘A Day of Good Fortune’, is gearing up for its premiere on the 20th, receiving immense anticipation from viewers.

Just two days before broadcast, the production team has unveiled three key points to watch in the first episode, urging fans to tune in. Actress Lee Young-ae, making her return to KBS dramas after 26 years, is poised to deliver another memorable character in her role as ‘Kang Eun-soo’.

Eun-soo, who lived solely for her family's happiness, finds herself in dire straits due to her husband Do-jin’s (Bae Soo-bin) cancer diagnosis and their family's financial ruin. The premiere episode will depict Eun-soo’s desperate struggle to secure funds for her husband’s treatment and the peace of her family shattering in an instant. Lee Young-ae's nuanced performance is expected to resonate deeply with audiences of all generations.

The thrilling action sequences are another highlight. The intense chase between the drug enforcement team of Gwangnam Police Station and the drug trafficking organization ‘Phantom’ is set to fully immerse viewers in the drama. The suspenseful pursuit and confrontations over the drug package promise to be a heart-pounding spectacle.

Lastly, the critical choices faced by the characters will serve as a significant draw. Eun-soo must make a dangerous decision to fund her husband's treatment, while after-school art instructor Lee Kyung (Kim Young-kwang) harbors a hidden secret, and the drug investigation team leader Jang Tae-gu (Park Yong-woo) relentlessly pursues the truth. Their decisions represent not just personal dilemmas but crossroads where family survival, justice, desire, and existence hang in the balance. Notably, Eun-soo's offer to collaborate with Lee Kyung is expected to ignite the plot and explode with tension from the very first episode.

Lee Young-ae is returning to KBS dramas after a 26-year hiatus with ‘A Day of Good Fortune’. In this project, she will portray a character who gets entangled in unforeseen events, hinting at another signature role. Since her debut, Lee Young-ae has garnered widespread acclaim for her solid acting skills, creating memorable scenes in numerous productions.
