Kim Tae-young, a member of the acting group Newname, captivated global viewers with her realistic portrayal of the precarious inner world of a high school senior struggling under the pressure of college entrance exams in the drama 'True Education'.

Immediately after its release on the 5th, the Netflix series 'True Education', which is currently enjoying box office success by topping Netflix's 'Top 10 Series in South Korea Today' within a day, featured Kim Tae-young in the role of 'Jung Hyun-min', a high school senior who runs solely with the goal of entering the medical school at S University. Jung Hyun-min is a character who lives with intense pressure and anxiety about grades amidst fierce entrance exam competition.

Since the series was released, Kim Tae-young, who played Jung Hyun-min, has garnered curiosity and anticipation from viewers, receiving a strong response. Having made her first impression on audiences by perfectly embodying the role of Cha Yu-gyeom, a pure and upright high school student, in her previous work MBC's 'In the Season of You', Kim Tae-young has been praised for adding realistic details of an elite student in the entrance exam world to the character through 'True Education', creating not just a simple victim but a 'three-dimensional character born from the hell of entrance exams'.

As such, Kim Tae-young has demonstrated the inner world of a complex and multifaceted character with acting skills that are stable for a newcomer, announcing the birth of a 'major promising star' that must be watched closely this year. With her fresh face, deep eyes, and solid fundamentals, all three elements combined, global fans are eagerly anticipating what kind of path Kim Tae-young will continue to forge.

Kim Tae-young is currently active as a member of the acting group 'Newname'. 'Newname' is a group consisting of four actors: Kim Jun, Kim Tae-young, Woo Hyun-jun, and Won Gyu-bin. Before their debut, they garnered attention for their unprecedented moves, such as gracing fashion magazine photo shoots and receiving official invitations to the Paris Fashion Week. As an acting group, they are also actively continuing their work activities.

After member Woo Hyun-jun made his debut through KBS 2TV's 'Last Summer', Kim Tae-young has announced her appearance in 'Awakening' following 'In the Season of You' and 'True Education'. Won Gyu-bin, who caught attention through 'Cheongdam International High School 2', is set to air on tvN's 'Work Tomorrow!' on June 22, and news of his casting as Bong Seok in the Disney+ original series 'Moving Season 2' has further focused global attention. As the acting group 'Newname' continues its bold rising trajectory, public interest in their moves is growing.

Meanwhile, Kim Tae-young is currently filming the upcoming SBS drama 'Awakening'. The series 'True Education', in which Kim Tae-young's performance stands out, can be watched on Netflix.
