This isn’t my favorite fashion pictorial featuring my favorite Lee Jong Seok, but I’m always happy to set eyes on him especially when it leads to a reminder that his next drama is on the horizon. Checking the filming schedule, upcoming SBS drama While You Were Sleeping with Lee Jong Seok and Suzy starts filming this month in March, heading into pre-produced format with an airing date in the fall. He plays a prosecutor who tries to help stop future tragedies foretold by Suzy’s character who dreams such events beyond her control. I was underwhelmed by his character in W: Two Worlds after the convoluted plot overtook character development and I hope gets a character as multi-dimensional, interesting, and relatable as his dogged reporter in Pinocchio.
This year 2024 has been a slow year for K-actress Suzy in terms of her…
There are weird casting choices and this one is weird from both the leads itself…
Well this is an interesting pairing, setting aside the age difference at least I can…
I swear I just wrote about Song Joong Ki having his first baby and then…
At the end of the day, the core of any good drama remains the Story,…
If I didn't know this drama was a romance set in space and done K-drama…

suzy acting will bring the rating down. LJS only hope is the drama focus on him with no romance between him suzy. suzy romance scen look to awkward. her stiff face will turn u off.
I think I am gonna sleep on this drama even I never skipped any of LJS' dramas before. The reason is so obvious. Dang Suzy! LOL
My reaction exactly.
What you said about W is so right. The fast paced story won over character development. I'm one of the few who could never finish Pinnochio, but I think both the leads were great in it. I'll probably give his new drama a try. I've never seen Suzy in anything but given what people say, I'll keep my expectations where they need to be so maybe it won't bug me. I'm pretty easy going about mediocre acting IF I like the story.
Lee Jong Seok! I can't wait to see him on my small screen again! It's been way too long! Hopefully Suzy will be servicable in this drama, but I will preserve no matter what <3
I wish I could be more excited by this drama. Unfortunately, I fear this is going to be Dr. Stranger Part 2! With LJK trying so hard, but partnered with a lead actress who can't emote very well....
I would like him to chose a simple character, a simple story. Because in his last dramas, he always was a kind of genius and too much perfect.
For Suzy, I really didn't like her last drama but a big part was because of the story. I couldn't relate to the characters. So I will wait to see her acting.
I will watch any drama with LJS in it regardless of who his co-star is. I guess I am one of those blind faith fans, so long LJS is in it, it does not matter. Fighting LJS Fighting!!!
ditto ....can't be bothered with whom he is gonna to act with or how crappy the script is going to be but having suzy as a co-star will to elevate his status as suzy is such a high profile star in korea. They are both famous and will benefit each other.
I think they are both equal in status, lee jong seok won a freaking daesang last year, there is no higher status than that. he does not need her, more like she needs him to have a hit drama.
LJS is the best. His personality suits all the characters portrayed so far. Drama is going to be good as he has the charm to hold audience irrespective of storyline or the cast
suzy again as the female lead. when will her acting skill improve. just because she's a 'big star', director keep casting her as lead. sigh.
Can yall please watch the drama first and then blame Suzy if the ratings aren’t good? I’m not fan of her acting and quite frankly, her being a female lead is a slap against the faces of actually talented actresses/drama&theatre school majors in my opinion. But it is what it is, there is a clear market for her and other idol actors so blame the consumers for watching her dramas and making her popular lol. And btw, this is no hate, but LJS looks prettier (or feminine) than Suzy, or in fact all of his previous co-stars..
