Lee Jun-ho and Kim Min-ha's Fateful First Encounter Revealed in 'Typhoon Inc.' Stills

tvN's new Saturday-Sunday drama 'Typhoon Inc.' has heightened anticipation by releasing stills capturing the very first meeting between its lead actors, Lee Jun-ho and Kim Min-ha.

The drama chronicles the challenging growth journey of Kang Tae-poong (played by Lee Jun-ho), who unexpectedly becomes the CEO of a trading company with no employees, money, or assets to sell, amidst the 1997 IMF financial crisis. It promises to depict his transformation from a youth enjoying wealth and freedom to a leader burdened with his employees' livelihoods during a national crisis.

Kim Min-ha portrays Oh Mi-sun, who evolves from a sharp accountant, the company's brain, to a professional trading specialist. Together with Kang Tae-poong, she will navigate a passionate and fierce survival story against adversity.

The stills released today depict a chance encounter between the two characters not at the company, but at a subway station. The unexpected moment when Kang Tae-poong, dozing off, leans his head on Mi-sun's shoulder hints at their intriguing future relationship and creates a compelling tension as they are strangers.

This scene is depicted as the pivotal moment where they leave an unforgettable first impression on each other before their destined reunion at 'Typhoon Inc.' The initial chance meeting sparks curiosity about how their connection will develop into a dramatic bond and how they will grow together amidst the turbulent era.

Furthermore, the meticulous attention to detail in recreating the 1997 era, from the fashion and props to the subway station's atmosphere, is expected to provide viewers with an immersive experience, as if they've traveled back in time.

The production team shared, "Please look forward to seeing how their brief encounter blossoms into a relationship where they will challenge and grow together in the future." They added, "The process of them becoming each other's pillars of support amidst the storms of the era will deliver a warm resonance to the audience."

'Typhoon Inc.' will premiere on Saturday, October 11th at 9:20 PM, following the currently airing drama 'Tyrant's Chef'.

Lee Jun-ho debuted in 2008 as a member of the group 2PM, gaining significant popularity as the main dancer and sub-vocalist.

He later transitioned to acting, solidifying his position with stable performances and versatile character portrayals in numerous works such as 'What's Wrong with Secretary Kim', 'Just Between Lovers', 'Wok of Love', 'Confession', 'Hospital Playlist Season 2', 'The Red Sleeve', and 'King the Land'.
