Junho of 2PM and Kim Min-ha showcased visuals beyond expectations. The new tvN weekend drama 'Teppun Trading' depicts the struggles and growth of Kang Teppun, a rookie trading company employee who becomes the president of a trading company with no employees, money, or goods during the 1997 Asian financial crisis. In the duo poster released yesterday (17th), the new president Kang Teppun (Junho) faces the 'typhoon-level' economic crisis that struck Korea, alongside ace accountant Oh Mison (Kim Min-ha), showcasing their abilities and relationship. Kang Teppun shows a resilient gaze and composure as a 'rookie president who knows no surrender' even amidst the Asian financial crisis. A free-spirited young man who loved flowers suddenly takes on the responsibility of ensuring the survival of his employees overnight, revealing a strong determination to unite with them and overcome the crisis. Meanwhile, Oh Mison, true to her tagline as the 'ace accountant who knows no slack,' is a reliable presence supporting Teppun Trading with her meticulousness and sense of responsibility. She guides Kang Teppun in the basics of company management and the attitude of a trading company employee, helping him grow into a true businessman. The poster highlights the synergy between Kang Teppun's vigor and Oh Mison's meticulousness, hinting at their excellent chemistry as they face challenges together. The production team commented, 'Kang Teppun and Oh Mison are strong partners growing into professional trading company employees through each other amidst the turbulent times. The resilient bond and synergy they build will convey the necessary spirit and empathy even after 30 years. The evolution of their relationship, which started as a 'crisis-busting duo,' is also a point to watch. Please look forward to the premiere.'
