Jang Ki Yong: The Announcement
On October 19, MBC confirmed Jang Ki Yong and Oh Jung Se as the leads of “Law of the Line” (literal translation). It’s a Friday-Saturday drama scheduled for the first half of 2027.

The Two Leads
| Actor | Character | Profile |
|---|---|---|
| Jang Ki Yong | Tak Do Il | Bank employee from a regional university with no connections. He reads situations well and negotiates his way into corporate politics. |
| Oh Jung Se | Chun Kyung Ho | Vice president of the sales group with only a high school education. He rose through the ranks and is a top candidate for bank president. |
The Premise
The story follows an outsider with no backing who disrupts a bank’s established power structure. It explores competing interests over management and personnel decisions, plus rivalries and betrayals among factions. Do Il and Kyung Ho come from very different backgrounds and positions, so how their relationship develops is a key point of interest.
Why It Sounds Promising?
An underdog fighting without a faction is a classic setup, and putting him opposite a self-made executive adds a second layer. The creative team also brings experience from well-known dramas. For background on the actor, see Jang Ki-yong on Wikipedia.
