About Lee Junho and Kim Min Ha's new K-drama
The King the Land actor will play the titular role of Kang Tae Poong, a CEO struggling to save the small business his father left behind. Set against the backdrop of the IMF crisis in 1997, the story maps out Tae Poong's trials as he must become a “true adult” to brave the challenges ahead, owning up to his responsibilities.
Meanwhile, Kim Min Ha will come in as a bookkeeper at the Typhoon Company. Contrary to Tae Poon's initial immature ways, her character, Oh Mi Seon, will be a resourceful eldest daughter, who shoulders all major duties in her family. In a quintessential opposites-attract scenario, the pair will face the IMF crisis as a team.
Director Lee Na Jeong (of Fight for My Way, Love Alarm, See You in My 19th Life and other dramas fame) will helm “Typhoon Company." The new tvN drama is expected to premiere in the second half of 2025.
Junho's fans should be delighted as this isn't the only project he is leading this year. His Netflix drama Cashero is also slated to release in the fourth quarter of 2025.
