Kang Tae Oh's Life Takes A Drastic Turn After Meeting Lee Sun Bin In New Drama "The Potato Lab"

tvN’s new weekend drama “The Potato Lab” has unveiled its first in-depth look of Kang Tae Oh’s character!

“The Potato Lab” is a new romantic comedy drama set in a rural potato research institute. The story follows Kim Mi Kyeong (Lee Sun Bin), a researcher whose life revolves entirely around potatoes, and So Baek Ho (Kang Tae Oh), a cold and principled corporate director. When So Baek Ho unexpectedly enters Kim Mi Kyeong’s world, the two find themselves entangled in a whirlwind romance.

The newly released stills capture So Baek Ho wearing an immaculate suite with a radiant smile. Holding a bouquet of flowers, So Baek Ho creates a warm and approachable atmosphere, but he is actually a cold-hearted man who only goes by the books. Thus, when he does not smile, he shows his stern nature as shown in a still where he holds someone down, exuding great charisma.

However, another photo captures So Baek Ho looking disheveled, completely unlike his usual self, making viewers curious to find out what has happened and what changes he will face at the potato research institute.

Kang Tae Oh shared, “When I first came across the script for ‘The Potato Lab,” I felt its warmth and healing vibes. I thought that this will be a great project to return with. I chose ‘The Potato Lab’ because I felt like it will create great memories.”

The actor further used the key word “principled” to describe So Baek Ho, commenting, “Baek Ho is a figure who makes every decision and action based on his own principles. Although he may seem like a slightly stern and cold person, I worked hard to delicately express his transformation process as he becomes one with the villagers and the potato research institute after meeting Kim Mi Kyung.” He continued, “Baek Ho is like a potato that was peeled in running water. A potato that has been cleanly peeled looks sleek like Baek Ho.”

“The Potato Lab” is set to premiere on March 1 at 9:20 p.m. KST. While waiting, check out a recent teaser here!
