I now fully believe BH Entertainment is the most powerful in K-ent otherwise how else to explain how K-actor Lee Jin Wook keeps getting cast. Especially in this day and age where fewer and fewer dramas are made he’s going back-to-back. He’s in talks for a jTBC legal drama titled Esquire and the female lead in discussion is Hyeri. Oh lord, even throwing in the age difference to make these even less palatable for me. Both will be playing lawyers and the PD directed Flexx Cop earlier this year.

About lawyers but called esquire? Doesn’t sound shady at all? Haha
Esquire is a courtesy title given to U.S. attorneys. It’s usually abbreviated Esq., and I’m guessing that’s what the title refers to.
What was an issue with Lee Jin Wook? Was he involved is some scandal?
He had sex with a woman,she cry rape,he said consensual.
how does this man keep getting casted with his crap acting and mediocre looks? so many better options out there. also hate the age gap… couldn’t watch Mr Sunshine, despite the rave reviews and tried my best to ignore the main couple in Goblin
The synopsis doesn't mention anything about romance so I am hoping they do not have a loveline because the obvious age gap is ick. Hoping it will just be a workplace drama.
Hyeri just turned 30 but is very youthful looking to the point she is still playing student roles so this is a great opportunity for her to play a grown-up character in a professional role and the director is good. He directed Flex X Cop which was a pleasant surprise and I really enjoyed (sidenote: I want the Flex X Cop Season 2 we were promised by SBS and the cast!)
Ugh at Lee Jin Work. His past controversy aside I just do not like his blah acting. Yes, BH Ent are a powerful agency but clearly people in the industry like this guy because for some reason he keeps getting roles in respected projects with leading directors and actors where they could cast other actors in his age group. In past year alone he has been cast with Shin Hae Sun, Suzy, Song Hye Kyo, Squid Game 2. I don't get his appeal at all!
I don’t have opinion on his private life, but he really doesn’t appeal on screen. I watched dear hyeri and ugh there was scene he was supposed to be surprised that his ex doesn’t remember meeting him, cause that was her other personality. He expressed that by bulging his eyes, nothing else. I never knew that he was actually that bad
He was such a disappointment in the just finished drama Dear Hyeri.
Agree, his acting wasn’t that good
Neither can act so what's the point of this casting. Who is gonna do the heavy lifting here? I'm surprised this guy still has investors n backers in the k ent industry but who am i kidding.. when literal criminals are still out there getting jobs
He must have a very resourceful team behind him... and likely good investors too.
I wish that Yoon Eun Hye had the same agency . I miss her , 6 years since her last drama . I think that i will never see her again in drama land . I don't know all about the Lee Jin Wook's case but he isn't that great as an actor , others more talented than him are struggling !
ugh I was happy to hear new Hyeri drama but then I saw it wasnt romance just when I was going to feel disappointed, I saw the partner & end up feeling glad about genre at least...
I don't even particularly like Hyeri as an actress, but she deserves a better partner... Dude is as bland as a rock and really is everywhere thanks to his agency.
