Joo Ji-hoon and Ha Ji-won: First Public Appearance as Middle-Aged Couple

ENA's Monday-Tuesday drama 'Climax' has released stills of the couple Bang Taesub and Chu Sangah ahead of its premiere on March 16th. The drama depicts the fierce survival drama of prosecutor Bang Taesub, who dives into a power cartel to reach the top in Korea, and those surrounding him.

The released stills capture different moments of Bang Taesub (Ju Jihoon) and Chu Sangah (Ha Jiwon). Bang Taesub, lost in thought while sitting in the bathroom, hints at his inner turmoil, while Chu Sangah gazing into space reveals complex emotions beneath her glamorous exterior. The scene of the two standing facing each other under an open sky condenses tension in silence, and their gazes, seemingly looking in different directions, evoke moments of choice beyond their marital relationship.

'Climax' portrays the fierce survival of characters who use and check each other to reach the top, set against a power cartel intersecting politics, business, and the entertainment industry.

In particular, Bang Taesub and Chu Sangah are characters standing at the crossroads of power and love, honor and choice. The deep emotional portrayals by Ju Jihoon and Ha Jiwon foreshadow a profound resonance beyond a simple marital narrative. Coupled with the solid genre design by Hive Media Corp and the direction by Director Lee Jiwon, the drama will deliver escalating tension towards its climax each episode.

ENA's Monday-Tuesday drama 'Climax' will premiere on Monday, March 16th at 10 PM on ENA, and will also be available on KT Genie TV and Disney+.
