@sky5joyous  thanks for sharing this. Regarding what it was like working with Im Si Wan, Seolhyun said during the presscon, “He has treated me comfortably since we first met. We joined the project as actors and didn’t realize we were both idols. He guided me well on set, so I really trusted and followed him. I could trust him because he has more experience than me.“

*** Yesterday, November 15th during the press conference for the drama 'I Don't Feel Like Doing Anything', Siwan then said, "In today's society, we can't help but to live a life that's way behind someone else's life if we don't keep ourselves busy. Being 'busy' has become inevitable today. In truth, even when we are burnt out, we are so busy that we are not aware of it and there is something inside of us that always desperately wants rest. Watching this drama, I think it will give you some time to relax your hearts for at least a little bit."  

'I Don't Feel Like Doing Anything' will premiere through Genie TV and ENA on November 21 KST.

Premiere Watch: Summer Strike

photo source : Dramabeans

 

 

Time slot: Monday-Tuesday
Broadcaster: ENA
Genre: Slice-of-life
Episode count: 12

Reasons to watch: The reasons to watch this drama practically write themselves, if you ask me. A young woman (Seolhyun) escaping from her dead-end life to frolic in the countryside and enjoy her life. A shy librarian (Im-Shi-wan) with whom she strikes up a friendship. Now normally, I would be the first person to complain that this drama was pre-produced and set to air in November when it should have been broadcast in the summer… but in this case, I actually think it’s the perfect breath of fresh sea air, sunshine, and sweetness we all need right now.

TL;DR: Slice-of-lifeness, Im Shi-wan as a librarian, beautiful scenery, summer vibes in November

Lee Min Ho, Lee Joon Gi, EXO’s D.O. and more: 5 male actors that have a unique filmography

Here are some actors that have taken on many unique roles over the years and have constantly pushed the envelope as a talented actor. Read ahead to know more.

 

 

Im Siwan 

He is a South Korean singer and actor. He is a member of the South Korean boyband ZE:A and its sub-group ZE:A Five. As an actor, he is best known for starring in the film The Attorney (2013), and the cable series Misaeng: Incomplete Life (2014), which were both successful in the box office and ratings. He is an extremely unique filmography, with some characters being introverted and straight-arrowed while others are twisted and of an antagonist like in the award winning Emergency Declaration. While investigating a terrorist threat that goes online, Korean authorities discover that a suspect has recently boarded a flight bound for the United States. When a healthy passenger on the same plane suddenly dies, panic erupts both in-flight and on the ground. With steadily decreasing fuel and international refusals to offer aid, the captain and crew take unprecedented emergency measures to save the lives of all on board. Seeing him in the film was such an experience when compared to his famous drama role in Run On, who was a sweet and heartwarming character.
