The ENA Monday-Tuesday drama 'Climax' tells the story of prosecutor Bang Tae-seop, played by Joo Ji-hoon, who dives into a cartel to seize the highest power in South Korea, and the fierce survival stories of those surrounding him. Oh Seung-hoon takes on the role of Choi Ji-ho, a cyber wreck video channel operator who deals with all issues.
In the second episode, Choi Ji-ho appeared targeting Choo Sang-ah (played by Ha Ji-won) and Bang Tae-seop with the narration, “The woman has something she wants to hide from the man, and the man is suspicious of the woman.” He then checked a message that arrived with a large deposit notification while writing a broadcast script, hinting at someone behind the scenes, sparking curiosity.
As the suffocating battle for power intensified, it was revealed that the person behind Choi Ji-ho was Lee Yang-mi (played by Cha Joo-young), delivering a shock. Teaming up with Lee Yang-mi, Choi Ji-ho began to delve into the murder case involving Choo Sang-ah. He first contacted Park Jae-sang (played by Lee Ga-seop), a person related to the case, planning to tighten the noose around the couple Bang Tae-seop and Choo Sang-ah. In this process, the scene where Choi Ji-ho murmurs to Lee Yang-mi, “The world is what we make of it,” even gave viewers chills.
From his first appearance, Oh Seung-hoon vividly expressed the character's ambition with sharp eyes and a calm voice, firmly establishing himself as a 'tension maker'. Holding the key to the core of the incident, viewers are focused on the shocking moves and intense acting he will showcase in future episodes.
Meanwhile, the ENA Monday-Tuesday drama 'Climax', featuring Oh Seung-hoon, airs every Monday and Tuesday at 10 PM and is also available on Genie TV and Disney+.
