Lee Jung Jae and Lim Ji Yeon in Talks for K-drama Petty Romance

View Comments

• I'm against!

  • Lol, who cares

• Big 👎🏻 for me. I personally will be passing on this one despite the fact that I think she’s a phenomenal actress. The age difference is 15 years but he looks like he could be her dad in this picture.

  • typo... 18 years age difference.

• I support. They are both grown ups.

• LJJ saw his bestfriend in an age gap romance so he also cast himself in one and got an even younger co-star from among their agency's actress line up. Kidding aside the PD and writer are quite good.

• I haven’t seen lee jungjae in romance so a bit curious how it will do. As for lim jiyeon, she is suitable for romance from what I’ve seen in drama high society. Hope it’s gonna be good

  • she was super duper good as candy character. The pairing with PHS was such a good combo and saved the drama for me at least.

• These old men hate to act opposite women their actual age. The 18 year age gap is gross. There are so many very talented, beautiful actresses in their 40s and 50s who would make great leading ladies here. Im Ji Yeon is only 34! LJJ isn't even a well-preserved middle-aged man. He is about to turn 52 and looks even older

  I wonder how much choice Im Ji Yeon even had since he owns her agency so she can hardly say no if she would rather not have an onscreen romance with her boss who is old enough to be her father🤮

  • Gosh, why are you trying hard to make him look like a pervert and Lim Ji Yeon as his victim?? There are a lot of dramas with reverse age gap, I'm sure you know it. Noona romance is well known genre in Korea, the biggest age gap was 26 years in noona romance, and yet you acting like it's only men thing in Korea, filming with actresses younger than them.
    I really can't understand why people can't criticise actors for professional things, instead you decide to speculate about their personalities and "how much choice LJY has". As if you know both of them. There a lot of actresses and actors with age gaps filmed together without one of them being more powerful than other. As being in his agency means being in hostage and he's some kind of evil man with devil plan.
    His girlfriend is 45 yo and she's one of the most powerful and rich women in Korea, if you think about him as about pathetic man loving way younger and less powerful women. Not to say you talking like that not because of some personal information about him, but just because of the casting news.
    And some of drama couples with big age gaps managed to look good together and "not gross".
    Lee Jae Wook did it with Lee Da Hee in WWW drama, when he was 19 yo, and she was 34 yo. Very big age gap, and yet they made second lead couple syndrome and were pretty popular.
    Pairings not about age gaps, this is about script, chemistry and acting skills.
    Don't bring your personal opinion about age gaps to call others "gross" and perverts.

• It's hard for me to imagine them as a couple, but their age gap and acting skills even makes me wonder how their pairing will look.
  Writer and PD look promising and I love comedies. "Typecast detective actor" character also look interesting, so I'm anticipating to that drama.

• i would love to see her reunited with PHS, cuz they were so good in High Society. They were the only reason I watched the whole drama. The leads were annoying.

  • Lmao I didn’t think the first couple was annoying but it’s true phs and ljy relationship was more exciting to watch

• Age gap aside, I honestly don't really think it would work. But who knows.

• This is so gross! I agree that he looks more like her dad. Who was able to thought of such pairing goes beyond me? Ugh...and a romcom at that
