Actor Kang Tae-oh makes a special appearance in the film 'The Intern', showing a distinctive presence on screen.
The film The Intern, which opens on the 16th, tells the story that unfolds when Gi-ho, a 37-year veteran silver intern (Choi Min-sik), joins the company of Sun-woo (Han So-hee), who rose as a dark horse in the fashion industry three years after its launch. It is a work that depicts an unusual office life that unfolds beyond generations and ranks.
In the film, Kang Tae-oh makes a surprise appearance as Min-wook, Sun-woo's husband. He is a caring husband who attentively looks after his busy wife, but he is a character who feels bitter and resentful watching Sun-woo neglect herself because she is devoted to work and her responsibilities as an owner.
Kang Tae-oh is expected to add vitality to the film by delicately expressing Min-wook's warm side as well as the complex emotions he cannot easily show. Even in a short appearance, he is expected to captivate audiences by densely portraying the character's emotions and relationships.
So far, Kang Tae-oh has proven a wide acting spectrum by moving across genres and characters through various works. Starting with Joseon romance drama - Nokdujeon, he showcased solid acting by interpreting different characters in his own color in Run On, A Day When Destruction Entered Our Home, Extraordinary Attorney Woo, The Potato Lab and others.
In particular, in last year's MBC drama Moon River, he played crown prince Lee-gang and deeply explored a variety of emotional lines from tender romance to tense revenge drama and even a soul-switching setup. Even amid genre variations, Kang Tae-oh, who flexibly expressed the character's emotions, was once again recognized as an actor by winning the best actor award in the miniseries category at the 2025 MBC Drama Awards.
Kang Tae-oh's activities outside of acting have continued. Earlier this year he successfully completed his first world tour fan meeting, 2026 KANG TAE OH WORLD TOUR FANMEETING O'Hour, spending meaningful time with global fans, and recently served as the ceremony MC for KMA(KM Chart Awards) 2026, showing steady hosting and natural communication skills.
Kang Tae-oh is showing diverse charms as he expands his activities from acting to fan meetings and hosting. Attention is focused on what face he will capture audiences' hearts with in The Intern as he continues to change through new characters and works.
