KBS2’s upcoming drama “Live Your Own Life” has shared new stills of Ha Jun and Go Joo Won!
“Live Your Own Life” tells the story of the warmhearted Lee Hyo Shim (played by Uee), who finally decides to get away from her leech-like family and pursue her own happiness away from them.
Ha Jun will be playing the role of Kang Tae Ho, the director of the planning division of a conglomerate group. Kang Tae Ho has both looks and skills, and he will become intertwined with Lee Hyo Shim after an unexpected incident. Go Joo Won will play Tae Ho’s cousin, Kang Tae Min, a third-generation chaebol heir who has both a good personality and manners.
In the drama, Tae Ho turns down a job offer from a major American company to return to Korea because there is a truth that he must uncover. However, he hides his true objective and becomes the head of the planning division of a conglomerate group, where his older uncle is the chairman and his cousin Tae Min is the General Manager.
Tae Ho feels sad for his father, who lost out to Tae Ho’s father in the competition for the position of the group’s chairman, and he puts all his effort into protecting the position his father struggled to secure after his younger uncle passed away. As such, it’s inevitable that there will be competition to become the group’s successor. There will also be a love triangle between Hyo Shim, Tae Ho, and Tae Min.
The newly released stills depict the love-hate relationship between Tae Ho and Tae Min. The two cousins, who haven’t seen each other in a long time, greet each other with friendly smiles. However, there is no physical contact such as handshakes or hugs, which you’d expect from people with a close relationship, and they seem awkward as they stand across from each other.
In another photo, Tae Ho visits Tae Min at work and questions him about something, creating tension.
Actor Ha Jun, who plays Tae Ho, commented, “Tae Ho has been compared to Tae Min since he was a kid. Even in Tae Ho’s eyes, Tae Min is a perfect person. Tae Ho’s grandmother told him that he could surpass his cousin, but he doubts whether he can really ever be as good as [Tae Min].”
He continued, “Tae Ho is better at dealing with people than his cousin. He has a way of getting people to be on his side, so I think he will have an edge in the competition.”
Ha Jun also praised his co-star Go Joo Won, revealing, “I always feel that he is considerate. I think that’s why I feel so at ease when I’m acting with Go Joo Won. I am very grateful for that.”
Meanwhile, Go Joo Won remarked, “For Tae Min, Tae Ho is a younger cousin whom he likes. Unlike Tae Min, Tae Ho has a lot of bright energy. Tae Min is actually envious of that aspect of Tae Ho.”
Talking about actor Ha Jun, Go Joo Won shared, “He’s someone I feel comfortable talking to about acting and personal things. I think he helps me a lot when I’m portraying Tae Min.”
The production team of “Live Your Own Life” commented, “Tae Ho and Tae Min’s charms are very different. This makes the love triangle between Hyo Shim, Tae Ho, and Tae Min even more interesting. Also, Tae Ho and Tae Min’s family has a hidden past. As the truth is slowly revealed, the relationship between Tae Ho and Tae Min will change. Please look forward to the fierce competition between the two men.”
“Live Your Own Life” premieres on September 16 at 8:05 p.m. KST.
