Park Min-young & Joo Jong-hyuk's Dramatic 180-Degree Turn After Tense Finale in 'The Confidence Man KR'
TV CHOSUN's new weekend mini-series 'The Confidence Man KR' is heightening viewer anticipation with a stark contrast in the appearances of Park Min-young and Joo Jong-hyuk following the intense cliffhanger of its first episode. The premiere episode depicted the con artist trio, Yoon-yi-rang (Park Min-young), James (Park Hee-soon), and Myung Goo-ho (Joo Jong-hyuk), successfully deceiving their first target, shaman Baek Hwa (Song Ji-hyo), and then approaching their second target, Jeon Tae-soo (Jung Woong-in).
The episode concluded on a nail-biting note as the con artists, while building trust with Jeon Tae-soo who was fixated on moving illicit funds overseas, suddenly found themselves confronted by him pointing a gun and demanding, 'Who are you?'. In stark contrast to this perilous ending, the newly released photos show the duo enjoying a relaxed moment, toasting on a beautiful Philippine beach. Yoon-yi-rang sports a comfortable yet luxurious travel look, while Myung Goo-ho captivates with a stylish patterned shirt and sunglasses.
Gone is the terrified demeanor from the first episode's finale; the two are now seen sharing food and creating a sweet atmosphere, raising questions about how they found peace. The production team stated, 'The unpredictable charm of 'The Confidence Man KR' continues in the second episode,' urging viewers to 'definitely check out the broadcast for the major plot twist involving Park Min-young and Joo Jong-hyuk, which seems to shift from a crime drama to a refreshing romantic comedy.' 'The Confidence Man KR' airs simultaneously on TV CHOSUN and Coupang Play, and is also available globally on Amazon Prime Video.
Park Min-young debuted as an actress in the 2010 drama 'Sungkyunkwan Scandal' and has since established herself as a queen of romantic comedies with dramas like 'What's Wrong with Secretary Kim,' 'Fight for My Way,' and 'When the Weather Is Fine.' She recently starred in 'Love in Contract.' Her previous roles in 'Suspicious Partner' and 'Healer' also garnered significant praise, building a substantial fanbase.
