Actor and singer Lee Junho demonstrated his true skill as a "romance master."
Lee Junho plays Kang Taepung in the tvN weekend drama Typhoon Family (directed by Lee Najung and Kim Dong-hwi, written by Jang Hyun, planned by Studio Dragon, produced by Imaginus·Studio PIC·Tris Studio), where he is cultivating a workplace-man chemistry love line with Oh Miseon (played by Kim Min-ha), coloring living rooms pink.
In the drama, Lee Junho is a character so hotheaded he acts recklessly when he sees injustice, but he aroused excitement by delicately depicting an emotional line that recognizes and changes toward his feelings for Miseon. His sincere looks and actions toward Miseon, as well as his attentiveness—correcting the way she is addressed when she is treated dismissively and taking care of her frugally—made viewers smile with a meticulousness that missed nothing.
Moreover, Lee Junho continued to knock on Miseon's heart in his own way. He climbed onto a club stage and looked at Miseon, singing a serenade as if confessing his love to raise excitement to its peak, and he also showed a heartwarming side by offering empathetic consolation to Miseon as she blamed herself, protecting her self-esteem.
In this way, Lee Junho fully absorbed the personality of a person who genuinely respects and cares for others in both work and love, bringing warmth to living rooms. With sincere acting that evokes empathy, he delivers warm humanism and resonates more specially with viewers.
Thanks to his sharpened acting, Lee Junho is setting new records each episode. According to the topicality research company Good Data Corporation FUNdex, Lee Junho ranked first in the talent topicality category and first in the TV-OTT drama topicality category in the fifth week of Oct., taking the top spot for two consecutive weeks. In addition, ratings have continued to break their own records, showing unstoppable momentum.
Previously, Lee Junho completed varied and romantic narratives with high quality through The Red Sleeve and King the Land. Now, showing a more evolved romantic performance in Typhoon Family and receiving heated responses day after day, attention is focused on his future activities as he writes a new chapter in close-contact romance that shares ups and downs at home and at work.
Meanwhile, the tvN Typhoon Family featuring Lee Junho airs every Sat. and Sun. at 9:10 p.m.<
