Kim Ji-hoon and Kim Hye-soo Star as a Couple in 'It's Not Adultery That's the Problem Now'

Actor Kim Ji-hoon is drawing public attention for his role as 'Jae-hong', Kim Hye-soo's younger husband, in the Coupang Play series 'It's Not Adultery That's the Problem Now'. Despite the drama's title, which sparked rumors of an affair, this is a character setting within the work and is unrelated to his real-life personal affairs. Kim Ji-hoon is set to showcase a new side of himself through his on-screen marriage with Kim Hye-soo in this project.

Born in 1981, Kim Ji-hoon debuted in the 2002 KBS drama 'Loving You' and has since been active in various genres including romance, family dramas, and thrillers. He has expanded his acting range through villainous roles such as Baek Hee-sung, a psychopath in 'Flower of Evil', and Denver in 'Money Heist: Korea – Joint Economic Area'. In 'It's Not Adultery That's the Problem Now', his character Jae-hong is an actor overshadowed by his successful wife, appearing affectionate on the surface but harboring complex feelings of pride and inferiority.

Bloggers noted that Kim Ji-hoon cited the opportunity to work with Kim Hye-soo, whom he had long wished to act alongside, as a major reason for choosing the project. The drama is highlighted as a black comedy, not a simple infidelity drama, with an unpredictable plot where two couples become entangled in events larger than an affair. The complexity of Kim Ji-hoon's character, Jae-hong, who is more than just an adulterer and embodies a mix of emotions, is also discussed as an intriguing element.
