Lee Seon-kyun considers becoming My Ajusshi for tvN

by tineybeanie

Do it! Do it! Lee Seon-kyun (This Week, My Wife Will Have an Affair) is considering the new drama from Signal PD Kim Won-seok and Oh Hae-young Again writer Park Hae-young called My Ajusshi. This new tvN drama will create a story centering on what it means to ponder the value of life.

The main character is described as a fortysomething man who has been enduring the heavy burdens of life. When he meets a twentysomething woman who is the complete opposite of him, who has been similarly weighed down by life, they begin to heal each other as they perceive each other’s struggles.

I’m already excited for this drama to happen. Lee Seon-kyun’s raw portrayal of his character—everything from his petty complaints, angry denials, and underlying desperation—is what made This Week, My Wife Will Have an Affair feel so real and relatable. So, this burdened ajusshi character seems like it would be right up his alley. It hasn’t been said whether the relationship between the main leads will be romantic, but I have faith that we’ll get something great with this writer. I just hope that both characters will have similar maturity levels, so the two-decade age gap doesn’t feel like an issue.

My Ajusshi is scheduled to begin filming at the end of this year and air sometime early next year on tvN, but right now the production team is concentrating on the script and casting.

Yes, do it! Do it! I think they will cast a movie actress for female lead role, so maybe Park So-dam? Kim Go-eun will be perfect as well but my heart inclined more towards Park So-dam simply because I want her to do a good drama. (Beautiful Mind was good, but I think almost all credits belong to Jang-hyuk while Cinderella and 4K better be forgotten for good).

Anyway, I'm excited to see LSK back! Wish they will cast a good actress to act alongside him.

Yes, I hope they will cast someone who can match with his level - even it is not Park So-dam or Kim Go-eun.

there are some people who are okay with an age gap of over 20 yrs between an older man and a younger woman in this show but wont tolerate hospital ship where ha ji won is 13 yrs older than min hyuk

I think more than the age gap between HJW and KMH, it was a large gap of their acting that some people were more concerned. The age gap when the female lead is much older is nothing new - Just to name few Yoo Ah-in & Kim Hee-Ae, Park Se-joon-Uhm Jung-hwa, Sung Joon-Ko So-young -All have huge age gap.

will watch for LSK! He’s an actor who inhabits his role. I felt for his character’s desperation and exasperation in TWMWWHAA, hilarious with LSY as well!

He plays these roles with such earnestness you can't help but fall every single time:)

He is GREAT in serious dramas, too, but I agree with you, I would loveeeeee to see him back in a rom-com. Pasta was like 8 years ago. But I wonder if he himself wants to be done with romantic roles.

For the first time ever my dream casting came through, or almost came through. Soompi reported that casting was already confirmed, but whatever. Sooooo excited. So can we get Kim Go-eun? Or will Jung Yumi be credible as a 20 something?

I thought that Lee Seon Kyun confirmed to star in this drama. I was sure that I will like the male lead. I will watch if I like the casting for the twentysomething leading lady.

PLease make this happen!! The character seems tailor cut for him. I loved This Week My Wife Had An Affair and Lee Seonkyun's acting is always so raw and captivating. I also loved him in Miss Korea which had a great atmosphere/tone of "realism" and nostalgia. Plus Signal PD and OHYA's writer!!! This combination of talent could be a winning recipe!

Not a bad choice though initially I want JangHyuk ahjussi doing this role.
But at this moment it would depend on female lead so I could watch this drama happily.
No idol please..

I miss my baby girl Park Sodam, so rooting for her to take this. Wow! I love platonic relationships between two adults with an age gap, don't you love deep and introspective PLATONIC relationships that are well written, I love P L A T O N I C relationships between people.
