The result was some uncanny-looking movements…

…and a terrible rendering of male lead Junho‘s face.

Netizens were absolutely baffled as to why tvN would even consider creating such posters.

- It really just looks like a whole different person when he moves.
- What’s the difference between this and deepfakes? (Real question.)
- No, I think that we can definitely use AI for some help in creation as it improves efficiency, but if you’re going to just use it to create the entire thing rather than a tool in the process, then…
- I really don’t get how they work. Do they think fans would want to see this?
- It’s not even a fan art account, but for the official account…
Typhoon Family tells the story of four estranged siblings who reunite after the death of their father. What begins as a seemingly simple family gathering quickly unravels into a storm of secrets, greed, and betrayal. With a star-studded cast and a suspense-filled plot, the drama has already caught the attention of viewers ahead of its premiere.
