tvN's upcoming Saturday-Sunday drama The Potato Lab has released a group poster. 

The Potato Lab follows Kim Mi Kyung (Lee Sun Bin), a passionate researcher obsessed with potatoes and So Baek Ho (Kang Tae Oh), a charismatic but ruthless capitalist driven by making profits. So Baek Ho arrives at the potato research center in a mountain valley, where he clashes with Kim Mi Kyeong. 

The newly released poster features researchers sitting on a potato truck. The warm vibe blurs the line between a research institute and a rural farm, creating a charming setting. In contrast, So So Baek Ho's perfectly composed demeanor stands out. 

The text on the poster reads, "You can't just ignore potatoes!" 

Lee Sun Bin takes on the role of Kim Mi Kyung, a bold, lively, and passionate potato researcher. Kang Tae Oh portrays So Baek-ho, a perfectionist who encounters unpredictable variables at the Potato Research Institute.

Joining them are Yoo Seung Mok (as Bu Jae Jung), Kwak Ja Hyung (as Go Jung Hae), Woo Jeong Won (as Joo Seung Hee), Yoon Jung Sub (as Lee Chung Hyun), Nam Hyun Woo (as Kwon Hee Dong), and Kim Ji Ah (as Jang Seul Gi), each bringing their own flair to the research team. 

Rookie Historian Goo Hae Ryung's director, Kang Il Soo and writer Kim Ho Soo, join hands to bring this drama to the screen. 

The production team expressed their enthusiasm, stating, "The stories that unfold at the Potato Research Institute will deliver crisp laughter, without any frustrating moments."

The Potato Lab will premiere on March 1. News about the K-drama's global OTT platform is yet to come.
