Actor Seo Kang-jun logged global viewers' excitement by portraying the perfect first-love senior in every way.

In particular, through the ideal senior character he led the drama's romantic mood and fully showcased the charm of the "wannabe boyfriend."
Making his first appearance on a campus where cherry blossoms fluttered, Seo Eun-ho drew attention with a warm, handsome visual and his signature gentle aura. After meeting Seo Mi-rae (Ji-su) with a bright smile, he added excitement with thoughtful consideration and actions that caused heart-fluttering moments, and he amplified the romantic atmosphere by completing even ordinary campus life scenes with the emotions of first love.
Seo Kang-jun deepened Seo Eun-ho's appeal with warm looks at his counterpart, a sweet smile and a low voice, making viewers fall for him even more. With nuanced emotional acting as well as movements that swung between kindness and composure, he fully captured the charm of a youthful romance and perfectly satisfied viewers' fantasies.
The chemistry with Seo Mi-rae in the drama also raised the show's excitement level.

In this process, with the skillful rhythm befitting a "chemistry master" he sustained the flow of the narrative and added to the fun of the romance.
Through this work, Seo Kang-jun generously showed the character's heart-fluttering points and unfolded a romance like the "textbook of first love." His diverse performances enriched the mood of each scene and increased viewing pleasure, raising expectations for future Seo Kang-jun–style romances.
Last year in the drama Undercover High School, in which he played National Intelligence Service (NIS) agent Jung Hae-seong who infiltrated a high school undercover, Seo Kang-jun left a strong impact with performances that crossed between an NIS agent and a high school student. From action to comedy, human drama, thriller and romance, he led the work with performances spanning diverse genres and delivered an overwhelming showing. Acknowledging these achievements, he earned the honor of winning the grand prize at the 2025 MBC Drama Awards, proving both his acting ability and topicality. Attention is gathering on Seo Kang-jun's future moves as he continues to show new sides at every moment.
