#Double Life of a Married Woman and Killer! Gong Hyo-jin Demonstrates Versatile Talents Between Home and Workplace!
The protagonist Yu Bo-na (played by Gong Hyo-jin), who lives a double life between the ordinary daily life of a married woman and the dangerous missions of a killer, takes center stage, building a three-dimensional narrative. This simultaneously delivers both the cheerfulness of a bright family drama and the tension of a pursuit thriller.
Particularly fresh is the setup where a legendary sniper who eliminates heinous criminals is actually an ordinary housewife, and the reason she disappeared was childbirth and childcare, which playfully subverts the existing noir formula. The reason Yu Bo-na picks up her gun again is to protect her loved ones and the world. Gong Hyo-jin is expected to demonstrate versatile talents at work and at home, perfecting a multi-layered character.

Meanwhile, episodes closely tied to the couple's everyday life evoke real-world empathy. Yu Bo-na wisely resolves the struggles of a housewife, and Gwon Tae-sung takes on household chores for his wife, maintaining a deep love.
