In the first two episodes of tvN's new Monday-Tuesday drama 'Gyeonwoo and Seonnyeo,' which aired on the 23rd and 24th, Cha Kang-yoon took on the role of Pyo Ji-ho, the best friend of high school shaman Park Seong-ah, played by Jo Yi-hyun. He showcased an appealing presence as a reliable companion to his female friend.
'Gyeonwoo and Seonnyeo' is based on a popular webtoon of the same name. It tells the story of a boy destined to die and an MZ generation shaman girl who tries to prevent it, depicting the unrestrained first love and romance of eighteen-year-olds.
In the drama, Pyo Ji-ho is a kind friend who stays by Park Seong-ah's side, captivating viewers with his cute and playful charm. Notably, he joins in the effort to save Bae Gyeon-woo, played by Choo Young-woo, adding a touch of innocent excitement with his seemingly indifferent yet warm demeanor.
Cha Kang-yoon also impressed with his striking visuals, perfectly fitting the school uniform. Additionally, he brought Pyo Ji-ho's cheerful charm to life, enhancing the character's appeal.
