Not Ahn Hyo Seop, this handsome actor was originally cast as Kang Tae Moo in “Business Proposal”

This actor was the first choice for the male lead role of A Business Proposal.

A Business Proposal is definitely the hottest drama in the first half of 2022. Besides the compelling story, A Business Proposal also won the hearts of the audience thanks to the perfect chemistry of the main actors. Among them are Kang Tae Moo (Ahn Hyo Seop) and Shin Ha Ri (Kim Se Jeong). However, few people know that even Ahn Hyo Seop is not the first choice of A Business Proposal.

In January 2019, Kakao Page once published a special introductory video to promote the webtoon A Business Proposal. The released video includes a trailer showing actor Park Bo Gum playing the main male role and a behind-the-scenes clip. Therefore, a large number of viewers had high expectations for the appearance of Park Bo Gum in the role of Kang Tae Moo. However, perhaps because the actor had to go to the army, Park Bo Gum did not accept this project. And so Park Bo Gum gave Ahn Hyo Seop the chance to shine.

Compared to Ahn Hyo Seop, it can be said that Park Bo Gum is a pretty suitable choice for the main role of A Business Proposal as he possesses a cute yet attractive visual. Besides, the actor also owns a wealth of quite massive works such as Reply 1988, Moonlight Drawn By Clouds, Encounter, etc. Recent projects he participated in such as Encounter or Record Of Youth, although sparked controversies, still possess desirable ratings.
