It was filmed in 2022. Not his fault it's coming out now.

Yep, there's also been talk for years of a TVING/Wavve merger to better mount a domestic competitor to Netflix/Disney. But we'll see.

They have TVING domestically and Kocowa for many global markets, so a lack of Korean streaming platforms is not the issue. It's just that Disney and Netflix are difficult to compete with.

Strange that they didn't show the rest of the confirmed main cast for Delusion, just the two leads.

Grow up

This is set to start filming in July. 12-episode tvN drama scheduled for the first half of 2026.

Love the poster, I see the vision

I was worried about which glasses they'd choose for LJS, but thankfully these are fine and not too much.

And neither did 30-something Byeon Woo-seok in Lovely Runner or countless other actors who successfully played high school students. Casting directors don't make their choice based on who looks most like they could pass for 17, but rather on who would give the best performance.

Mentioning Choi Hyun-wook is funny because so many were outraged he wasn't playing a high school student in My Dearest Nemesis, and that they "couldn't take him seriously" when not in a school uniform. It's such a limiting perspective. I'm sure he's looking forward to doing more non-high-school roles.

Choo Young-woo is just 25 and can easily still do high school. Not sure why you think Choi Hyun-wook would be a better fit for a character who has a cold and hard exterior, considering that's pretty much the opposite of most of his trademark lovable, goofy characters.

To be released in January 2026. Also 16 episodes apparently, not 12.

Looks like it will be a perfect drama for summer break. Can't wait!

Choi Hyun-wook is confirmed to appear in this.

This has already started filming and is aiming for a release in the second half of 2026.

Big difference between three years and ten years. They could've cast a more experienced, skilled actor in his late 20s instead and still stayed true to the webtoon.

It was just so evident in The Tale of Lady Ok how much more talented Choo Young Woo is in terms of acting range and going toe to toe with a more experienced actress. I wish Kim Jae Won luck, because he's gonna need it lest Kim Go Eun and her excellent acting eats him alive and spits him back out.

Seems more like Kim Go Eun liked working with him on You and Everything Else and suggested him to the casting director. Which could mean their chemistry will be good at least. But there's a reason why actors are actors and not casting directors. It does seem like a very uneven match.

This is a great project on paper at least. We'll see if the drama is actually good. Neither Hierarchy nor Crushology 101 did anything much for his career. Cashero is a promising project, too.

I'm more worried about the gap in acting experience and skill.

Interesting choice. 10-year age gap. He's going to have to be far more impressive than he was in Hierarchy and The Tale of Lady Ok in order to be seen as a realistic romantic partner to Kim Go-eun.
