Lee Je-hoon is attempting a unique transformation.

Following his role as a goofy neighborhood older brother in the currently airing tvN entertainment program ‘Living in a Three-Bedroom Apartment in Finland’, he will transform into a cool-headed and charismatic character in his new leading role.

He will play the role of Yoon Joo-no, an M&A expert, in the drama ‘Negotiation Techniques’, scheduled to air in March, and will set out to renew his ‘representative character’.

The drama is an office drama that depicts the activities of a legendary M&A expert at a large corporation and his team. It will go beyond simple corporate transactions and deeply deal with the fierce battles and human relationships that occur within them.

Director Ahn Pan-seok, who created ‘Secret Love Affair’, ‘Pretty Sister Who Buys Me Food’, is in charge of directing, and it has been gaining attention even before the broadcast.

In the drama, Lee Je-hoon plays Yoon Joo-no, an M&A expert known as an industry legend. He is a character with cool judgment and excellent negotiation skills, and he plays a key role in leading the drama. He will also show ‘Bromance’ with Kim Dae-myung and Sung Dong-il.

In particular, Lee Je-hoon is determined to show a new side of himself that he has never shown before through this drama. He has been gaining specialized knowledge by studying various fields such as economics, international affairs, and foreign languages before starting his first filming last year.

The drama poster recently released by the production team also captures Lee Je-hoon‘s unconventional appearance, drawing attention. In the poster, he appears with a blue-tinged ‘silver hair’, leaving a strong impression.

From his neat suit to his square glasses, Lee Je Hoon’s cool and charismatic image can be felt as it is.

The production team raised expectations by saying, “You will be able to see not only his appearance but also Lee Je Hoon‘s deeper acting.”

After ’The Art of Negotiation,‘ Lee Je Hoon will also be releasing ’Taxi Driver 3‘ and ’Signal 2‘ in succession.
