JUNHO (2PM) beautifully expresses emotions with just one glance... His passionate performance in ”Taepyeong Business” is a hot topic

*Contains plot summary and spoilers. JUNHO (2PM) is creating a powerful typhoon on TV with just one look.
tvN's Saturday and Sunday TV series "Taepoong Company" has been receiving enthusiastic reviews since its first week on air. Kang Taepoong, played by Junho, is a man who was born in 1997.
The drama left a strong impression from the first week, bringing laughter, tears, and a deep aftertaste to viewers as a young man who lost everything in the F financial crisis but gets back on his feet.
In the first episode, JUNHO vividly portrayed Kang Tae-poong, a young man in the 90s who was a symbol of freedom and romance.
Taepyeong's image of letting himself go with his friends to music and dreaming of his own world was the epitome of the freedom of young people at the time. However, the waves of the IMF currency crisis hit, and his bright youth was wiped out in a day.
Faced with the reality that he had to protect the company amid the threat of bankruptcy, Taepoong abandoned his dreams and ambitions and became a responsible employee.
Above all, JUNHO perfectly portrayed the various characters with just one glance, perfectly expressing all aspects of youth.
He shines brightly when he was a free young man, and conveys a sense of urgency when he hits the wall of reality, and sadness in moments of loss.
Faced with the sudden death of his loved one, he is unable to accept reality and is filled with shock and regret, and his eyes are filled with complex emotions that cannot even shed tears, and he conveys these emotions to the viewers.
The scene where Taepoong, who doesn't know whether to cry or get angry, explodes with the emotions he has been holding back after discovering the "bankbook letter" from his father, caused a storm of emotions in the living room, with many viewers saying, "JUNHO
The gaze of the actor has been praised as "epic." Also, at the end of EP2, Taepoong appears in front of a truck loaded with fabric and heading to a trading company to prevent unpaid bills.
Snow began to fall, and the falling snow looked just like flower petals. When Tae-poong was a child, he said that it was boring to see the flowers fall so quickly. His father replied, "Flowers are not defeated, but they try their best to bear fruit."
"You are winning because you are doing your best." Taepoong remembered his father's teachings and smiled with tears in his eyes at the end. It was as if he had taught him that the situation he was in now was "a place where you are winning because you are doing your best."
His gaze, which filled the entire screen, was filled with mixed emotions, tears and smiles, leaving a deep impression.
The OST (insert song) played, further heightening the emotional intensity. In relation to this, Jang Hyun, the writer of "Taepoong Corporation," said, "Kang Tae-woong is a character that is difficult to portray.
He is a playful man who loves flowers, a kind and handsome character, and he had to be cute and tough at the same time. I was worried if it would be possible, but Junho pulled it off."
On the first day we met, I jokingly told Junho, "You have to be the nation's son, the nation's boyfriend, and the nation's president," but seeing him accomplish all of that was truly amazing.
In fact, in just EP2, JUNHO has completed an epic tale of youth that is filled with warmth and responsibility, romance and reality, laughter and tears.
The film delicately portrays the passionate image of someone who endures the times. Taepoong's growth period, in which he learns how to win in his own way without crumbling even amid the storm of the IMF, and the Kang Taepoong that Junho will perfect, are even more anticipated.
Meanwhile, "Taepung Company" airs every Saturday and Sunday at 9:10 PM on tvN.
