"The Potato Lab" stars Lee Seon-bin and Kang Tae-oh provide cheerful laughter and excitement until the end.
As the tvN Saturday-Sunday drama "The Potato Lab" (directed by Kang Il-soo and Shim Jae-hyun, written by Kim Ho-soo, planned by CJ ENM Studios, produced by Chorokbaem Media) approaches its conclusion with two episodes remaining, the behind-the-scenes cuts of the "Potato Family"—Lee Seon-bin, Kang Tae-oh, Yoo Seung-mok, Kwak Ja-hyeong, Woo Jeong-won, Yoon Jeong-seop, Nam Hyun-woo, and Kim Ji-a—at their beach outing have been unveiled.
In the last broadcast, a crisis emerged in the relationship between Kim Mi-kyung (played by Lee Seon-bin) and So Baek-ho (played by Kang Tae-oh). So Baek-ho was shocked to realize that the employee he had fired six years ago at the request of Mr. Yoon (played by Son Ji-yoon) was Kim Mi-kyung. Although Kim Mi-kyung felt sad about leaving the lab, her words that she is happy because of So Baek-ho weighed heavily on his heart. The ending, where So Baek-ho decides to let Kim Mi-kyung go and reveals the truth of the incident from six years ago, heightened curiosity about the ending.
The recently released behind-the-scenes cuts of the Potato Family's outing evoke cheerful laughter. In particular, the friendly flower pose of Lee Seon-bin and Kang Tae-oh adds excitement. From the awkward 'gamgu' mode to the sweet couple that seems to oscillate between being unsure if one is the boss or the fool, the chemistry between the two actors brilliantly captures their ever-changing relationship, solidifying the essence of a healing romantic comedy. Additionally, the unreleased cuts featuring So Baek-ho’s refreshing moments from the tense rivalry between "The Potato Lab" and "The Sweet Potato Lab" captured attention. Kang Tae-oh's comedic performance, which amplified So Baek-ho's charm by alternating between seriousness and frivolity, also received praise.
The seamless character play of the Potato Family has been responsible for the audience's laughter in every episode. The warm atmosphere on set can be glimpsed in the actors' joyful poses as they take commemorative photos against the backdrop of the sea during a short filming break. From heart-shaped hand gestures to thumbs up, the variety of poses brings delightful smiles just by looking at them. Expectations are further heightened for the energetic performances of the Potato Lab Family—Yoo Seung-mok, Kwak Ja-hyeong, Woo Jeong-won, Yoon Jeong-seop, Nam Hyun-woo, and Kim Ji-a—as they continue to add fun until the very end with their witty exchanges.
The production team of "The Potato Lab" noted, "Kim Mi-kyung and So Baek-ho face a crisis as they confront the truth of the incident from six years ago. Please keep watching until the end to see if they can overcome this crisis and achieve a happy ending," stirring anticipation.
Episode 11 of the tvN Saturday-Sunday drama "The Potato Lab" will air on the evening of the 5th (Saturday) at 9:20 p.m.
