They are starring in the 8-part drama "How to Buy a Friend", displaying man to man chemistry.
Based on an original webtoon of the same name, "How to Buy a Friend" is about an ordinary high school student named Chan-hong (Lee Sin-young), whose poem unexpectedly gets him into a 'friendship contract' with the legendary teenage fighter Don-hyeok (Shin Seung-ho).
Lee Sin-young starred in "Crash Landing on You" as Park Kwang-beom and stole the show for being a 'Kim Soo-hyun look-alike'. He formed the image of a pure man who needs protection with his natural dialect and emotional performance. In "How to Buy a Friend", he is a sweet guy named Park Chan-hong who throws himself in front of his girlfriend out of protection, but ends up getting beat up himself. His emotional act for Eom Se-yoon (Kim Sohye) increases immersion for the drama.
Shin Seung-ho from "A Moment at Eighteen",who took on the role of Ma Hwi-yeong, shows a powerful leader.
He shows off his muscular body by doing pull-ups shirtless and gives off the 'alpha male' vibe even in uniform.
Shin Seung-ho is a legendary fist fighter known to many high schools. He is 186 centimeters tall with a flawless body and low-toned voice. He's a cold and charismatic macho man who every man wants to be.
