Kim Hye-soo and Cho Yeo-jeong trade thriller tension for laughter on set

A complete reversal from the intense atmosphere of the drama—filled with meticulous plots and breathtaking secrets—has been captured behind the scenes. The lead actors of the Coupang Play original series 'Affair is Not the Problem' momentarily set aside the tension of the production to reveal their true selves.

Intensity OFF: Actors reveal unexpected charm

While the characters in the drama engage in sharp confrontations while hiding their respective secrets, their off-camera personas are 180 degrees different from the series. The actors momentarily let go of the weight carried by their characters, creating cheerful moments that refreshed the atmosphere on set. This natural side of the cast, in stark contrast to the swirling tension of the plot, shows the human element hidden behind the immersive work.

In particular, scenes featuring the core cast—including Kim Hye-soo, Cho Yeo-jeong, Kim Ji-hun, and Kim Jae-cheol—provide a different kind of enjoyment compared to the main narrative. The laughter bursting out in unexpected situations and the chemistry between the actors alleviate the weight of the series and convey the vibrant energy of the filming site.

Proving its power with 4 consecutive weeks at No. 1

The series' performance is as unrivaled as the energy on set. 'Affair is Not the Problem' is receiving strong support from viewers, recording No. 1 in popularity on Coupang Play for 4 consecutive weeks. Driven by the solid acting skills of the cast and an immersive plot, the series has established itself as a flagship title for the platform.

The tense pursuit of truth in the main series, contrasted with the pleasant energy created by the actors behind the scenes, offers another perspective for enjoying the work. The actors' real-life personas, standing in contrast to the precarious situations faced by their characters, further enrich viewer interest in the series.
