I hope they cast a good actress with good acting skills for the female lead. I don't mind if the actress older than Jongsuk. We've seen many successful drama where in real life the female lead are older than the male lead but in drama their characters are about the same age. Take for example: 'Secret Garden' <Ha Jiwon - Hyun Bin in real life 3 years gap>, 'My Love from The Star' <Jun Jihyun - Kim Soohyun in real life 7 years age gap>, "Descendants of The Sun" <Song Joongki - Song Hye Kyo in real life 3 years age gap>. Suzy is pretty but her acting is not that good. If she decided not to take the offer, i want Jongsuk to act with either Moon Chaewon, Kang Sora, or Park Minyoung. I hope i can see Jongsuk work with one of them ^^

I'm with you on this, they all are excellent but I'm partial to Kang Sora to co star w/him. I would love to finally see them as an OTP. But having said this you really could not go wrong w/ Moon Chae Won or Park Min Young.

@OksanaS I feel ya about Min Young not taking a part that has been offered to another person.

A successful drama is a collaboration between its actors, scriptwriters and production crew. As audience, everyone have their preference and judgement, but please be respectful and make it a happy collaboration, at least here in the discussion forum.

Both UF and W underwhelms me storywise

but I'm glad Suzy is confirm to reunite with DH writer :blush: She's not too cheesy with romance and her stories have actual interesting plots. I hope she'll also have good things for us in WYWS. Her recent Page Turner was really nice albeit short. I always enjoy Suzy in dramas and this is more special for me since she's with the writer I have confidence ever since dh. I am not Ljs fan but i saw a couple of his projects like  as one movie,IHYV and w and he's good in picking projects too so all in all it's pretty positve for me!

Singer-actress Suzy cast in new SBS series

AEN20161128003300315_01_i.jpg

SEOUL, Nov. 28 (Yonhap) -- Singer-actress Suzy has been cast in the title role of a new SBS series about a clairvoyant woman and a prosecutor who fights to stop her dreams from becoming a reality, the drama's production company said Monday.

Suzy, a member of girl group miss A, will star opposite Lee Jong-suk in the series tentatively named "While You Were Sleeping," according to iHQ.

In the drama, Suzy will play a woman with the ability to see accidents and mishaps before they happen in her dreams. It will be her first TV series since she played a brazen documentary producer in the KBS romance "Uncontrollably Fond" earlier this year.

The new series, set to air sometime next year, will be written by Park Hye-ryun of the popular series "Pinocchio" and "I Can Hear Your Voice," and directed by Oh Choong-hwan of "Doctors."

Suzy confirms supernatural romance While You Were Sleeping

by girlfriday | November 28, 2016 

Suzy_LeeJongSeok1.jpg

It’s official: Suzy (Uncontrollably Fond) has signed on to star opposite Lee Jong-seok(W–Two Worlds) in the new drama While You Were Sleeping, from hit writer Park Hye-ryun of Pinocchio, I Hear Your Voice, and Dream High. The supernatural romance has also found a home at SBS, and PD Oh Choong-hwan of SBS’s medical romance Doctors will take the helm. This will be Lee Jong-seok’s third series with writer Park, and Suzy’s second after 2011’s Dream High, in which she made her acting debut.

 

While You Were Sleeping will be a legal supernatural drama, much like I Hear Your Voice—that series was about a public defender and a boy who could read minds, while this one is about a prosecutor and a girl who sees the future. Suzy has been cast as a young woman who has dreams about bad things that are about to happen to other people, and Lee Jong-seok will play the prosecutor who fights to stop those tragedies from coming true.

I expect the PD of Doctors to be a good fit for the contemporary romance; that show had the pitfall of seeming visually pretty but empty of substance at times, but with this writer I don’t have that worry at all, since she always delivers great characters and a compelling story. I’m really not enthused about Suzy’s casting, but I’ve always found something to like about the heroines in this writer’s dramas, so I’m going to keep an open mind and hope for the best. Maybe the drama will reward my optimism by keeping it light and funny and melo-free, with some chemistry on top.

While You Were Sleeping is being planned for a 2017 broadcast on SBS.

  Hi everybody,

I asked this on Onehallyu forum but I ask it here as well... I'm curious^^

Does anyone know if the director Oh Choong-Hwan is a good or not?

Because it's important to have a good director too, although the screenwriter is good, the director can still ruined a drama (or a character) by badly directing his actors/actresses.

So if anyone has seen "Doctors", can you give me your opinion about this director please? Thanks :)

Among all his works, I saw only "My Love From the Star" but he was only the second director here right?, the main director was Jang Tae-Yoo so idk...

'While You're Sleeping' stars Miss A's Bae Suzy, Lee Jong-Suk on SBS'

CyUH91IUkAETq1H.jpg

South Korean actress Bae Suzy, 22, is taking on another acting gig. The Miss A member has recently confirmed to take over the lead female role in SBS' upcoming drama tentatively titled "While You're Sleeping."

In a statement obtained by The Kpop Herald, production company SidusHQ confirmed Suzy will star opposite Lee Jong Suk in the upcoming SBS drama. She will play a woman who has the ability to see accidents that will happen to others through her dreams.

 

Opposite her is the "Pinocchio" actor. He plays a prosecutor who does all that he can to stop those dreams from becoming real. The SBS drama will benefit from the creativity of screenwriter Park Hye-Ryun and director Oh Choong-Hwan, whose previous projects include this year's hit SBS drama "Doctors" and the 2013-2014 pan-Asia hit "My Love From the Star."

 

SidusHQ will wrap up all of the necessary logistics before the year ends and kick off the production in early 2017. Not much is known about "While You Were Sleeping" aside from the fact that it will be a 100 percent pre-produced drama and was given a Wednesday-Thursday time slot. More details about the project will be revealed soon.

yeh actually the PD worries me a lot especially that he has only 1 drama in his resume, and as i read it it had some flows so we can't say he did great job in it despite the ratings,  especially if WYWS will be 100% as they say..means it can be fixed later :mellow:
