The incredibly kind man Kang Chan-hee is causing intense secondary illness.
In the TVING original series 'Chunhwa Love Story' (scripted by Seo Eun-jung, directed by Lee Kwang-young, produced by Beyond J, SLL, provided by TVING), Kang Chan-hee, who plays the character Lee Jang-won, a candidate for the hand of Princess Hwari (played by Go Ara), is evoking gentle waves in the hearts of viewers with his thoughtful performance.
First, the character Lee Jang-won is regarded as the number one groom candidate in Dongbang, possessing a good family background, character, ability, and appearance. Despite receiving unrequited love letters from many women, he has shown indifference in romance.
What moved Lee Jang-won's heart was none other than Princess Hwari, as he expressed his intention to challenge for the title of the royal consort, even willing to give up the public office he had long dreamed of. Despite his father's concerns, his awareness of his feelings and his attempt to follow them perfectly represent Lee Jang-won's character, who is specialized in walking silently towards his goal.
However, when Hwari ultimately rejected his confession, even his reaction was characteristic of Lee Jang-won. Instead of showing signs of great shock or disappointment, he neatly stepped back, saying, "I will gladly support whichever path you choose, Your Highness," thus promising to be a strong ally. Lee Jang-won's thoughtful consideration for the other person's feelings, even when it came to difficult words, once again evoked deep emotion.
After passing the civil examination as first in rank, Lee Jang-won upheld his promise by helping Kim Min-hong (played by Bae Yun-kyu), who was misidentified as the original author of the romance novel 'Chunhwa Love Story,' out of a predicament. Additionally, he provides mental support as a trusted ally, offering pointed advice to Hwari, who is troubled about her brother Hwa-ing's (played by Ko Geon-han) crime from a family's perspective.
For Lee Jang-won, a royal command to find the original author of 'Chunhwa Love Story,' Lee Mong-heon, brings signs of conflict in his convictions. Lee Jang-won, having gone to find Choi Hwan (played by Jang Ryul), the distributor of the book, bluntly stated that the identity of Lee Mong-heon seems to be Princess Hwari. It raises curiosity about what decision Lee Jang-won, caught between the responsibilities of public office and loyalty to Hwari, will make.
In this way, Kang Chan-hee faithfully embodies the qualities of the upright young man Lee Jang-won, whose emotional swings are not intense. This has created an even more remarkable synergy with Kang Chan-hee's restrained performance. Anticipation for Kang Chan-hee's performance in the remaining two episodes of 'Chunhwa Love Story' is rising.
The TVING original series 'Chunhwa Love Story,' where Kang Chan-hee's final brilliance will shine, will release episodes 9 and 10 on March 6 (Thursday) at 12 p.m.
