Actor Kang Tae-oh has risen to the top potato through the tvN weekend drama ‘Potato Research Institute’.

In the tvN weekend drama ‘Potato Research Institute’, which ended on the 6th, he played the role of So Baek-ho and completed a perfect romantic comedy with his tall visuals as well as his dense emotional acting.

On this day, So Baek-ho struggled for the Potato Research Institute, which was in crisis. He left the retail business he had been in for a long time and started a new life as the finance manager of USB Guesthouse and the president of the Yeongeul-ri Youth Association, and had a happy ending.

‘Potato Research Institute’ is Kang Tae-oh‘s comeback drama after his military service. Kang Tae-oh received favorable reviews for his convincing portrayal of his transformation from a cold-hearted man of principle who only pursued efficiency at the beginning of the drama to a warm-hearted man who gradually understands others after meeting Kim Mi-kyung (played by Lee Sun-bin). As the episodes went on, he portrayed condensed emotions with deeper eyes and facial expressions, and he was crowned the ‘Top Potato’.

Kang Tae-oh in ‘Potato Research Institute’ attracted attention with every episode with his charm that stimulated all five senses from sight to touch. He perfectly pulled off various suit fits as well as casual looks with natural charm, capturing the hearts of women. In addition to his ‘Sexy Man’ appearance, the potato field kiss scene reached the peak of the romantic narrative.

Kang Tae-oh is scheduled to transform his acting once again in the new MBC drama ‘The Moon Flows on Lee Kang’, scheduled to air this year.
