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.
