*Grabby hands* When is this drama going to air?! K-actor Lee Jong Seok is one of my faves and he was in military service from 2019-2021 but came out last year and still hasn’t been seen yet on the big or small screen. He did pick his projects which just haven’t aired yet but hopefully the drama comes first with tvN legal drama Big Mouse. It has also been called Big Mouth which I think was either the original title or K-ent reporters were all just calling it wrong. He plays a two-bit lawyer with the nickname Big Mouth who gets caught up in a murder case and mistaken for a famous swindler named Big Mouse. So I guess both names work for the drama. His wife in the drama is played by Yoona so the romance part is not the falling in love but the already together and tackling a big challenge by each other’s side. I hope it’s as intense and swoony as Flower of Evil‘s married couple were. Anyhoo, I thought this drama would for sure be scooped up by Netflix but in a surprising turn of events this week it was revealed that the drama would stream internationally and domestically exclusively on Disney+.
