The new tvN weekend drama 'Teppun Trading' has revealed the remarkable 'crisis breakthrough synergy' of 2PM's Junho and Kim Min-ha. The drama, written by Jang Hyun and directed by Lee Najung and Kim Donghee, depicts the struggles and growth of rookie trader Kang Teppun (played by Junho), who becomes the president of a trading company with no employees, money, or goods during the 1997 Asian financial crisis. Ace accountant Oh Mison (played by Kim Min-ha) is expected to be a reliable support for Kang Teppun with her cold logic. The trailer released yesterday (24th) includes the special synergy created by the two. Oh Mison kindly teaches Kang Teppun that 'finding good products and good business partners is the ability of a trader,' proving that a trader's qualities are determined by what they decide and how they act. In response, Kang Teppun shows his proactive side by saying, 'Please trust me just once. It's slow to think and act,' demonstrating his belief in his instincts. 'I can do it. I will really sell,' he embodies the relentless spirit of a trader. Meanwhile, Oh Mison is an ace accountant armed with a cold and realistic sense. Her elegant handling of the calculator shows her strength with numbers, and her thoroughness supports the company. This is not only due to her innate character but also a habit formed from her past, where she diligently learned the principles of the world without neglecting even a single newspaper. The encounter between these two is seen as a driving force that encourages each other, influenced by a special 'Teppun (Typhoon) synergy.' When Oh Mison seriously asks, 'Are you confident? Confident to be a trader?' Kang Teppun responds with enthusiasm, 'It's fun, being a trader,' showcasing their teamwork. The synergy between Junho and Kim Min-ha is also special. Junho expressed, 'I feel the joy of interacting while acting with Kim Min-ha the most,' and emphasized the fun of the unintentional moments of silence that occur during dialogue. Kim Min-ha shared her gratitude, saying, 'Junho is open to everything I want to do and thinks about my concerns as if they were his own.' The accumulated experiences lead to a bond that transcends simple acting, naturally reflected in the characters' relationships. The heartfelt synergy of the actors is expected to resonate deeply with viewers.
