2PM's JUNHO and Kim MinHa make an unexpected connection... Stills of their first meeting revealed on Typhoon Family

First stills from the meeting between 2PM's Lee Junho and actress Kim Minha have been released.

tvN's new Saturday-Sunday drama 'Typhoon Family' depicts the growth story of Kang Tae-poong, a rookie trading company employee who, in 1997 during the IMF crisis, becomes president of a trading company with no employees, no money, and nothing to sell.

Joon-ho plays Kang Tae-poong, who enjoyed a youth of wealth and freedom but transforms into a president shouldering his employees' lives amidst the IMF crisis. Kim Min-ha plays Oh Mi-son, the brains behind Tae-poong Trading and a seasoned professional trader, who now faces crisis. The chemistry between these two actors, renowned for their acting prowess and star power that has garnered global attention, is a major highlight of the drama, brought to life through the “Tae-poong Spirit.”

Amidst this, today (the 12th), 'Typhoon Family' released an image of the scene where Kang Tae-poong and Oh Mi-son first encountered each other in 1997. However, the location where they meet isn't the company, but an electric railway station. Tae-poong, who had been dozing off with cosmos flowers in his arms, suddenly lowers his head and leans his face onto the shoulder of Mi-son standing before him. Mi-son's expression of surprise at the unexpected contact, and the sense of distance between the two who still don't know each other, create an intriguing tension.

This scene depicts the moment they left an unforgettable first impression on each other before reuniting as the new president and accountant at 'Tae-poong Trading'. How will their connection, born from this brief coincidence, lead to Tae-poong Trading? And what survival story and growth narrative will unfold amidst the fierce typhoon of that era? It simultaneously ignites curiosity and anticipation.

Additionally, this still cut draws attention to its meticulously detailed styling recreating the era of 1997. Tae-poon's uniquely bold styling that swept through Apgujeong-dong, Mison's neat office worker look, and even the atmosphere and feel of the train station from that time are perfectly reproduced, giving viewers the sensation of time-traveling back to 1997.

The production team stated, “We hope you'll watch to see if the encounter that began with Tae-poong and Mison's brief interaction will later develop into a relationship of shared challenges and growth. The process of them becoming each other's support amidst the typhoon of their era will surely convey a deep emotional resonance to viewers.”

'Typhoon Family' is the passionate survival story of ordinary people who held onto their place in the world and refused to give up on life, even during a period when the crisis that struck Korea felt like the end of the world. It is expected to offer warm comfort and courage to anyone navigating difficult moments today.

Meanwhile, tvN's new Saturday-Sunday drama 'Typhoon Family' will premiere in Korea on Saturday, October 11th at 9:20 PM.
