Kim Seo-hyung’s life crumbles in Paper Moon

New promos have been released for ENA’s suspense thriller Paper Moon, including a new poster and video teaser of our heroine Kim Seo-hyung (Mine) as well as her young paramour Lee Shi-woo (Hi Bye, Mama!).

The novel adaptation has Kim in the role of Yoo Yi-hwa, a woman who has long lost her sense of self and has silently been suffering in her lonely marriage to Gong Jung-hwan (Imitation). Unsure of who she is or what she even wants, she takes a chance on an unexpected job opportunity and begins working at a bank. But on her journey to find happiness for herself, Yi-hwa finds herself taking dangerous risks and crosses boundaries that she can’t turn back from.

The new teaser begins with scenes from Yi-hwa’s affair, meeting Yoon Min-jae (Lee Shi-woo) in secret and not noticing her ring slipping off. We then pause on a moment in the rain when Yi-hwa offered her umbrella to Min-jae. She asks, “If God was granting you one wish, what would you ask for?” And he replies, “To never meet again.”

In the next sequence, we watch as Yi-hwa starts sneaking money from the bank, expressing both glee and trepidation. The intermittent text screens read: “My life crumbled beautifully.” As the music comes to a stop, the teaser then ends on our heroine looking up at the moon at night.

With scripts by Noh Yoon-su and directing helmed by PD Yoo Jong-sun (Secret Royal Inspector and Joy, Designated Survivor: 60 Days) and filmmaker Jung Won-hee (Doom Doom), ENA’s Paper Moon will be launching next month in April.
