  • larus changed the title to [Upcoming Drama 2022] Why Her/Why Oh Soo Jae?, 왜 오수재인가- Seo Hyun Jin & Hwang In Yeop- Fri& Sat- Premieres on March 11

I liked the teaser. It looks interesting.

Why Oh Soo-jae' has finally been unveiled.

On the 31st, the SBS new drama 'Why Oh Soo-jae' (directed by Park Soo-jin, written by Kim Ji-eun, produced by Studio S Bo Media), which is scheduled to be broadcasted for the first time in March, released a special teaser on the 31st, in which Seo Hyun-jin's intense transformation overwhelms the eyes.

 

'Why Su-jae Oh' is a painful but exciting story of a cold lawyer Oh Soo-jae (Seo Hyun-jin), who is empty after chasing only success, and Gong-chan (Hwang In-yeop), a law school student who is not afraid of anything to protect her. The story of two people whose lives have been turned in the wrong direction due to the wrong choice, who are trying to escape from the depths of the abyss, raises expectations for the birth of a different 'mystery melodrama (LAW)'.

 

The special teaser video released on this day begins with Oh Soo-jae's cold words, "Isn't life worth it?" Oh Soo-jae, a star lawyer with a captivating charisma. She is not afraid of any event or any opponent to her. The appearance of Oh Soo-jae, who gives a silent warning, provokes curiosity even more, saying, “When I climbed this far, who runs everything more than my seniors, I risked my life for it.”

 

However, the life of Oh Soo-jae, who was on the road to success at the 'order' rather than the suggestion of TK Law Firm Chairman Choi Tae-guk (Heo Jun-ho), takes a sudden break. She left TK Law Firm to become an adjunct professor at the Law School. Gongchan (Hwang In-yeop)'s meaningful gaze looking at her is also unusual among the students, who are uproar about the appearance of star lawyer Oh Soo-jae. The confession that "the professor is hiding something" over his figure running away as if being chased by something, followed by the monologue "It was Oh Soo-jae, I met Oh Soo-jae again" draws attention to the special relationship between the two.

 

Seo Hyun-jin transforms into a star lawyer 'Oh Soo-jae', who swallows regret and becomes poisonous. She is the youngest partner lawyer at TK Law Firm and one of the top ace recognized by others. She was equipped with a competitive spirit that made anyone kneel, and self-righteousness that had nothing to fear in the world, and she ran horribly and desperately for her perfect success. Seo Hyun-jin, who is absolutely trusted by the public, unleashes Oh Soo-jae, who hides an empty inner side stained with scars in a cold face with a large-scale acting.

 

Hwang In-yeop takes on the role of Gong-chan, a law school student who reaches out to Oh Soo-jae, who has fallen into the abyss. Gongchan, a warm young man, possesses a unique empathy that can look into people's hearts. He seems to have a life without twists, but he also has a painful past with a twisted fate. He meets a change by fateful meeting with Oh Soo-jae, who is pushed out as an adjunct professor at a law school because of an unexpected incident. Expectations are high for Hwang In-yeop, who will show off a special romantic chemistry with Seo Hyun-jin.

 

The audience reaction is also explosive. As the special teaser video was unveiled, various social media and online communities such as “Seo Hyun-jin, I tore it from the first scene”, “The work I am looking forward to just with Seo Hyun-jin’s choice”, “As expected, God Hyeon-jin! The acting is crazy just looking at the teaser”, “I like the character of Oh Su-jae, who is united with evil through gangsters”, “My heart is already trembling”, “The reason I waited for 2022”, “All actors are my taste” “I am curious about the narrative of Oh Su-jae and Gong-chan”, etc. The expected response was pouring in.

 

Meanwhile, director Park Soo-jin, who co-directed 'Penthouse', 'Romantic Doctor Teacher Kim', and 'While You Were Sleeping' and received favorable reviews for detailed and sensuous directing through 'Praise of Death', is the new SBS drama 'Why Oh Soo-jae'. and rookie writer Kim Ji-eun collaborated. It will be aired for the first time in March.

Seems like there'll be quite a few event happening, not just "romance" revolve around the protagonists.

 

The decor of Gong Chan's bar really have a nostalgic vibe.

I find it uncanny that Hwang In Yeop is in a drama which is a romance between mentor-protege 'cause his former co-star from "18 Again" Lee Do Hyun just finished a drama with the same type of relationship in "Melancholia".

    I can't wait for this 'cause Hwang In Yeop was THE single best thing out of "True Beauty". He had so much potential. And he come across a very sweet, down to earth guy too off screen. Lookin' forward to this when it premieres!
