Gong Hyo-jin shines as the legendary "Married Woman Killer" sniper... Intense preparation including action school

Actress Gong Hyo-jin is delivering a passionate performance as Yubona, the legendary sniper Kingfisher and a working mom, in MBC’s Friday-Saturday drama ″Married Woman Killer.″ Recently released behind-the-scenes photos show her undergoing various preparations to immerse herself in the character, including practicing martial arts choreography at an action school and learning how to handle firearms and shooting stances. Gong Hyo-jin even took up kickboxing to build stamina and enhance the quality of the action scenes, and she meticulously coordinated movements with the stunt team to perfect the details. On set, she demonstrated professionalism by carefully adjusting her facial expressions and gaze through monitor checks and discussions with the director. She consistently communicated with her on-screen family and the Durumi Electronics team members to create natural relationships, and with Hwang Bomi, who plays her daughter Kwon Yul, she created an atmosphere resembling a real mother-daughter bond. Gong Hyo-jin stated, ″Action acting itself was a big challenge for me. When I first received the script, I wondered if I could bring excitement to the viewers with my action scenes. However, the director persuaded me that Yubona has more sniper scenes using guns rather than martial arts, and that the story focuses more on Bona’s daily life than the action itself, which gave me the courage to take on the challenge.″ Meanwhile, ″Married Woman Killer,″ based on the popular Kakao Webtoon of the same name, airs every Friday and Saturday at 9:50 PM on MBC. In the recent episode, the Durumi Electronics Sales Team 3 launched an operation to capture Tak Jong-gu, who had hidden in a casino. Yubona attempted a one-shot one-kill sniper shot, but the plan was disrupted by the appearance of Moon Darae, leading her to head to the scene herself. The story then previewed a fierce battle between Yubona and Moon Meoru, who faced off with knives, putting Yubona at risk of having her identity exposed. Additionally, new variables emerged as Ki Young-do supported Yubona’s movements with his hacking skills, while Moon Darae and Bae Biji interfered with the operation.
