Lee Jong Seok in Talks to be the Male Lead of Rom-com I’m Against My Romance Opposite Go Min Si

I find Lee Jong Seok‘s career a very steady and more selective since he came back from military service in 2021. He used to do at least one K-drama if not two a year and that made sense since he was building and cementing his acting resume. Since discharge he did the successful thriller drama Big Mouse in 2022 and now likely will switch genres to come back in 2024 with the rom-com I’m Against My Romance. The drama will star Go Min Si as the female lead and the male lead was initially going to be Choi Hyun Wook who declined despite it being an age appropriate and same level casting. Regardless I think this will be a quality pairing and I hope Lee Jong Seok accepts and returns to the rom-com genre.

  • I am a huge Lee Jong Suk fan but I don't know if I want him to accept this drama honestly, I don't know if these kind of dramas are guaranteed to do well so I kinda want him to stay on the thriller line but who am I to question if he accepts it, he never misses with his dramas so hands tied if he accepts he has a good reason and I can't wait to see him on my screen again.

  • He should only be in dramas with solid leading ladies. I can never stick with his dramas when his leading ladies have sooooo little chemistry with him. He, himself, is super good at embracing his characters and attempting to generate synergy, but when it's not returned, SAD!

  • How did they go from Choi Hyun Wook to Lee jong Suk? They have almost 14 yrs age gap. Also what kind of a role is it that fit both the actors when both actors have different vibes.

  • I am still in shock who Lee Jong Seok is dating... I completely did not expect it...But I do wish them happiness

  • You got the wrong actor. Choi Hyun Wook is the one that played the young Ha Yi Chan in Twinkling Watermelon. Choi Woo Shik is the one that starred in Our Beloved Summer with Kim Dami.

  • my question is: what kind of character would both choi hyunwook and lee jongsuk be fit to play that they were both offered it? because there is a big difference in age, acting style, and visual between the the two.

  • My favourite LJS drama is Romance Bonus Book, the perfect noona romance, through a very rose-tinted glass :)
    And W was so good, frustrating plotlines and all.
    Just noticed he does seem to have scale back his work, hope this one works out for him.
