In order to assert his name in the hearts of the audience, Kang Tae Oh had to try and do his best. Now, the guy has succeeded in attracting great attention in the feverish movie Weird Lawyer Woo Young Woo.

Beautiful male Kang Tae Oh - Nha Phuong's "screen lover" in the movie "Youth" has conquered many hearts of Vietnamese audiences at that time. After this work ended, he still worked hard to participate in many other Korean films. And in 2022, this actor's name really shines with the role of Lee Joon Ho in Weird Female Lawyer Woo Young Woo.

It can be said that, after 9 years of lackluster roles, Kang Tae Oh's time has finally come. Recently, the actor is causing a fever all over Asia with the movie The strange female lawyer Woo Young Woo.

Produced by ENA - a relatively unknown station, however, the movie The strange female lawyer Woo Young Woo is noticed by its extremely "engrossing" content and logical and reasonable character lines.

Kang Tae Oh's character was edited quite carefully and built almost perfectly, but many viewers felt more impressed by the male assistant lawyer Jung Myeong Seok played by Kang Ki Young.

With his genuine acting ability, actor Kang Ki Young transforms into a lawyer with a subjective view. Because he used to have prejudices about autistic people, when he first met the heroine, he doubted her ability and had no intention of guiding her.

Hard work and dedication to art and efforts have paid off

Before becoming as famous as it is today, few people know that Kang Tae Oh had 9 years of "fading" in his acting career. Despite working hard in a variety of roles, he has not really made a big impact.

The actor, born in 1994, first debuted as a member of the group 5urprise. 5urprise was launched by Fantagio Entertainment in September 2013. The group consists of 5 male members: Yoo Il, Seo Kang Joon, Gong Myung, Kang Tae Oh and Lee Tae Hwan. The group's members are selected through Fantagio's Actors Federation, a program that detects promising actors and trains for two years before making their entertainment debut.

Unlike idol groups that started out as singers, then expanded into acting, 5urprise does the opposite. Their first project was After School: Lucky or Not - a TV series with 12 episodes with each episode being 15 minutes long. They play 5 members of a high school club and encounter an outcast (played by actress Kim So Eun). Together they help the shy girl come out of her shell.

After that, 5urprise developed a music career and released the single Hey U Come On, holding many fan meeting events.

Since then, Kang Tae Oh and Seo Kang Joon have been the two most hardworking members in acting. Kang Tae Oh has starred in many dramas such as Miss Korea (2013) and My First Love (2019). Most recently, the actor played supporting roles in Park Bo Young's Doom At Your Service and Run On. During many years of filming, Kang Tae Oh mainly played supporting roles.

Youth with Nha Phuong is a rare film where Seo Kang Joon takes on the main role. The film consists of 2 parts shown on VTV channel in 2014 (part 1) and 2016 (part 2). In Korea, the series was broadcast on MBC in 2016-2017. The film has a youthful and gentle content that is well received in Vietnam and helps Kang Tae Oh have a certain number of fans.

Tuoi Tre has won the VTV Awards and helped the actor win the Impressive Male Actor Face Award. Although it was shown in both Vietnam and Korea, his name was only popular in Vietnam and was still quite faint in the land of kimchi at the time the movie aired.

The role that helped Kang Tae Oh win the lottery

After 2 parts of the movie "Youth Youth", the beautiful man born in 1994 appeared in many other popular works such as Queen's Flower, Biography of Nokdu, The Dearest Lady, etc. However, it seems that Kang Tae Oh is still not real. the prominence when competing with the beautiful men and women of the land of kimchi.

The Gemini actor also pocketed a few awards and nominations such as the Impressive Actor award at the VTV Award 2015 (Vietnam), the Best Actor nomination at the Asia Artist Awards 2016, The Rising award. Star Award at AAA 2017,...

However, Kang Tae Oh has not been able to break through, his film projects do not resonate, even quite faint. It was not until Extraordinary Attorney Woo that the name Kang Tae Oh became popular with the Korean public. Insight even stated that Kang Tae Oh won the lottery with this movie.

According to Wikitree, the viewership rating of Extraordinary Attorney Woo in the most recent episode was 9.1%. Worth mentioning, the first episode of the film only reached 0.9%. Thus, after 5 episodes aired, the movie's viewership rate increased 10 times. This is an incredible feat for any TV series. But the film's achievement is even more impressive because Extraordinary Attorney Woo is produced by ENA - a little-known station and the series airs in the middle of the week.

Extraordinary Attorney Woo tells the story of Woo Young Woo (played by Park Eun Bin), a lawyer with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), who works at a large law firm. She has a high IQ of 164, outstanding memory and creative way of thinking. However Woo Young Woo has low EQ and poor social skills.

However, what may be more surprising to the audience is the ranking of the most searched actors in Korea. According to Wikitree reported on July 14, beating his colleagues, Kang Tae Oh kept first place on the chart. While the other actors of the film such as Park Eun Bin, Kang Ki Young and Jeon Bae Soo ranked 2nd, 3rd and 4th respectively.

Lee Junho is not an easy challenge for Kang Tae Oh. Kang Tae Oh said, "I have to express my concern and give Young Woo mental support with just a glance or a small reaction. It's quite difficult."

He shared more about his acting work, "I still have to learn a lot from the people around me. Regardless of the role, I feel the same weight and responsibility. I always try to communicate. with people around on set. Finding solutions in conversations with the director or other actors is a meaningful experience."
