Lee Jong Suk will reportedly return to K-dramas after two years.
On November 22, Lee Jong Suk's side officially responded to the circulating casting reports of the actor.
According to Lee Jong Suk's representative, "Lee Jong Suk received the offer to lead the upcoming K-drama I'm Against My Romance and he is positively reviewing it."
I'm Against My Romance will be the next work of director Lee Eung Bok who is known for helming the hit K-dramas Sweet Home, Mr. Sunshine, Goblin, and Descendants of the Sun.
The upcoming K-drama will tell about the reunion romance story of two ex-lovers. The story will unfold when two ex-lovers decide to reunite and rediscover if the relationship is just a continuation or if it's the start of an unfamiliar new relationship.
Aside from Lee Jong Suk, actress Go Min Si got the offer to be the female lead. Previously, actor Choi Hyun Wook got an offer to be the male lead but because of schedule conflicts, he turned down the K-drama.

I'm Against My Romance will reportedly be broadcast on tvN in 2024.
