In ‘The Art of Negotiation’, Lee Je-hoon puts an end to the disgrace of being a stock manipulation criminal.
As the JTBC weekend drama ‘The Art of Negotiation’ (written by Lee Seung-young, directed by Ahn Pan-seok) approaches its final episode airing on the 13th, the actors who traversed the intense world of negotiations are delivering their farewell messages to soothe the viewers' disappointment.
First, Lee Je-hoon, who successfully transformed into the natural negotiator Yoon Joo-no, the head of the M&A team, expressed, “As spring comes warmly, I feel even more regretful about parting ways. I have learned a lot and gained happy memories while working with the respected director Ahn Pan-seok, our wonderful seniors, colleagues, and the best staff in South Korea. I think I will miss everyone.”
He added, “I hope all the viewers will remember the world in this work that seems to actually exist somewhere. Thank you for loving ‘The Art of Negotiation’ so far.”
Following him, Kim Dae-myung, who conveyed warm humanism through the role of lawyer Oh Soon-young in the M&A team, said, “It was an honor to be part of the M&A team's adventure, and I enjoyed every moment of filming. I recall the moments we prepared to share fun stories with the M&A team last year while playing the character Oh Soon-young. Thank you for being with us in our story. I hope to meet you again in a good season soon,” bringing smiles with his cheerful remarks.
Sung Dong-il, who played the heavy charismatic role of Song Jae-sik from the Sanin Group, shared, “Working with director Ahn Pan-seok was a very meaningful experience, and it feels like just yesterday we started, but now I am here to say my final goodbye. I hope you will stay with us until the end to see how the future of the Sanin Group unfolds.”
Jang Hyun-seong, who realistically expressed greed for power as Hae Tae-soo, the second-in-command of the Sanin Group, stated, “Every moment spent together was enjoyable and happy. I think I will never forget it for a long time. I sincerely thank the viewers who sent us warm love and support.”
Oh Man-seok, who portrayed Lee Dong-jun, a managing director of the Sanin Group, showed unwavering beliefs even amidst corporate politics, saying, “The 12-episode drama feels like a movie has just ended. I want to express my gratitude to the viewers who loved ‘The Art of Negotiation’,” conveying his thanks gently like his character in the drama.
Ahn Hyun-ho, who played the role of Kwon Min-jeong, a supercomputer essential to the team, expressed his affection for the work, saying, “I was really happy to be able to work with good people in a good environment as Min-jeong of the M&A team. I sincerely thank the viewers who stayed with us until late.”
Finally, Cha Gang-yoon, who portrayed the intern Choi Jin-soo, sincerely depicted his growth, stating, “It was an honor to create a good work with respected individuals. Although Jin-soo makes many mistakes in the drama, he also grows a lot, and it was a precious time for me as an actor Cha Gang-yoon to grow alongside him. I truly thank the viewers who loved us.”
Thus, ‘The Art of Negotiation’ vividly presented a more intricate M&A world through the combined acting skills of the cast. In particular, Yoon Joo-no (played by Lee Je-hoon) rejecting the dismissal notice outright and hinting at a new counterattack has made the conclusion even more anticipated.
The final negotiation table, which Lee Je-hoon stakes his life on, will unfold in ‘The Art of Negotiation’, airing its last episode on the 13th at 10:30 PM.
