Kang Tae Oh is finally back, and he's bringing all the flavors—just like a variety of potato dishes!

On March 1 at 9:20 PM KST, Kang Tae Oh will make his highly anticipated comeback in tvN’s new weekend drama The Potato Lab. This marks his first project since being discharged from the military, and fans can’t wait to see him back on screen.

In the drama, Kang Tae Oh takes on the role of So Baek Ho, a cold-hearted perfectionist whose name spells trouble for employees—because whenever he appears, mass layoffs follow.

But things take a twist when he meets Kim Mi Kyung (played by Lee Sun Bin), a passionate researcher obsessed with potatoes. Their whirlwind romance promises plenty of humor, healing, and unexpected sparks—just like a tornado potato!

Kang Tae Oh has already wowed viewers with roles like Cha Yul Mu in The Tale of Nokdu and Lee Jun Ho in Extraordinary Attorney Woo, proving his strong screen presence.

Now, with So Baek Ho, he’s set to showcase a new side as a charismatic and competent professional.

Another exciting point? His rom-com skills! Known for his "rom-com-friendly" visuals, Kang Tae Oh is expected to break the usual serious researcher stereotype with comedic charm and heartfelt moments.

Fans are eager to see if his chemistry and humor will create a “must-watch” buzz.

Meanwhile, The Potato Lab premieres tonight (March 1) at 9:20 PM KST. Will you be tuning in?
