Suzy has been signed on for the period K-drama Hypnosis (also called Delusion) adapted from a webtoon and now Kim Sun Ho, her second male lead in Start-Up, is in talks to be her male lead. The drama is set between 1800’s Shanghai and 1930’s Gyeongsang, Korea and involves a painter hired to paint the portrait of a mysterious charismatic lady who does not age and is a vampire.
