Actor Kang Hoon revealed that his resemblance to Kang Ha-ki in 'My Favorite Employee' lies in their shared "perfectionist personality."

On the afternoon of the 28th, an online production conference for tvN's Monday-Tuesday drama 'My Favorite Employee' (script by Lee Young and Kim Ji-an, directed by Park Ji-hyun and Jeong Da-hyeong) was held. Director Park Ji-hyun, actors Kang Hoon, Kim Hye-jun, and Cha Woo-min attended.

Regarding his character Kang Ha-ki in 'My Favorite Employee', Kang Hoon explained, "He is the CEO of Apollo, meticulous about work, and after Nam Da-reum joins, things begin to falter."

Kang Hoon added that while acting, he paid close attention to details: "As the CEO of a fashion platform, I researched extensively how such a role operates and how they dress, striving to align with those realities."

He further shared, "I pondered why someone approaching me would gradually draw closer, and why I might avoid people, while performing the role."

He stated, "My perfectionist personality and planner J-type nature closely resemble Kang Ha-ki's."

'My Favorite Employee' is a drama depicting the office growth romance of Nam Da-reum, an employee who becomes 'My Favorite Employee' after meeting her favorite idol. In the series, Nam Da-reum (played by Kim Hye-jun), who has passionately supported D.N.X idol group member Lee Chan (played by Cha Woo-min) for 12 years, joins Apollo—a company co-founded by Lee Chan and Kang Ha-ki (played by Kang Hoon)—to fulfill her dream of becoming a devoted fan. Nam Da-reum, who dreamed of working alongside her favorite idol, is set to spend each day filled with excitement between the newly hired Kang Ha-ki and her beloved Lee Chan.

'My Favorite Employee' will premiere on August 3 at 8:45 p.m.
