Kang Tae Oh has fulfilled his mandatory military duty! March 19 marked his discharge from active duty following his enlistment in September 2022, completing his service after about a year and a half.

Kang Tae Oh shared,

“I enlisted after receiving great love from everyone after wrapping up ‘Extraordinary Attorney Woo.’ I faced the end of my 20s and start of my 30s in the military, and it was a meaningful time during which I fixed my bad habits and earned only good things.”

He continued,

“I will work to impress with great projects going forward, so please show lots of anticipation and love.”

During his military tenure, the actor conscientiously fulfilled various duties, including reading the memorandum at last year’s memorial service on Hyeonchungil (Memorial Day in South Korea) and serving as an assistant instructor at the Recruit Training Center.

Before his discharge, his agency, Man of Creation, disclosed that the actor is actively discussing a potential role in the upcoming drama “Potato Research Institute” (literal title).

The series, a romantic comedy, is set in a rural potato research institute. He is being considered for the lead role, portraying a character endowed with impeccable looks but who is also an outsider, possessing unforeseen charisma.
