Sohn Ho-joon’s magic comedy in The Light in Your Eyes

by mary

Four short character teasers for The Light in Your Eyes have been released. This fantasy romance drama is about an ever-optimistic woman who can turn back time. It’s a dual role played by Han Ji-min (Familiar Wife) and Kim Hye-ja (Dear My Friends). The character is an aspiring news announcer who loves fighting on the side of justice. Despite her special ability, she often gets caught up fixing the tangled web of the past.

Nam Joo-hyuk (Bride of the Water God 2017) stars as the male lead, who is described as a man who throws his brilliant moments away and instead lives a lethargic lifestyle. He’s also an aspiring reporter, but one who has the appearance and the qualifications for the job. So I wonder what goes wrong…

But after seeing the teasers, Sohn Ho-joon’s (My Secret Terrius) character is the one I’m looking forward to the most. Starting off with this intense look of concentration, his expression changes so comically when he actually succeeds in blowing out the candle with his “mind.” He’ll be playing Han Ji-min/Kim Hye-ja’s older brother in this drama, who has no skills, no knowledge, nor any special hidden cards up his sleeve. He’s the ultimate unemployed bum.

Directed by Kim Seok-yoon (I Live in Cheongdam-dong) and written by co-writers Lee Nam-kyu (This Week My Wife Will Have an Affair) and Kim Soo-jin (Mad Dog), JTBC’s Monday-Tuesday The Light in Your Eyes will air starting next February.
