[Drama 2022] Why Her / Why Oh Soo Jae?, 왜 오수재인가

[Fabbo]

Nvm apparently he is still in talks for School 2021. so nothing confirmed yet. They just included his name in the news because of the 2 month old casting rumors. 

Looks like he hasn't decided yet. We will have to wait and see.

 

But i think the rest still holds true. His agency probably prefers him to be in School 2021. And Studio S has troubles casting the male lead for Why Oh Soo Jae. They've had 6 months time already.

Why Is Oh Soo Jae will be aired in 2022, 7th Jan?

 

Ah...nope...may be 4th Mar?

Hwang In Yeop In Talks To Join Seo Hyun Jin In New Romance Drama

Hwang In Yeop might be starring opposite Seo Hyun Jin in the upcoming drama “Why Oh Soo Jae?” (literal title).

On May 24, Sports Chosun cited industry sources who stated, “Hwang In Yeop was chosen to play the lead of ‘Why Oh Soo Jae?'”

A source from Hwang In Yeop’s agency KeyEast Entertainment clarified, “Hwang In Yeop has received an offer to star in ‘Why Oh Soo Jae?’ and is looking over it.”

“Why Oh Soo Jae?” is a drama that tells the story of a woman who makes the wrong choice in life and lives for the wrong kind of success. After she falls in love with a certain young man, she changes the direction of her life and learns to properly love herself. It is a love story that is described as painful yet exciting and cold yet warm.

Seo Hyun Jin was previously confirmed as the female lead Oh Soo Jae, and Hwang In Yeop has been offered the role of the male lead Gong Chan, a freshman at Seojoong University’s law school and the owner of a bar. Gong Chan met Oh Soo Jae in the past when he was falsely accused of a crime. After serving time in jail for a crime he didn’t commit, he is cleared of the charges and reunites with Oh Soo Jae at the law school where she is an adjunct professor.

Kim Young Dae had been in talks to play Gong Chan, but discussions have reportedly fallen through due to scheduling conflicts.

“Why Oh Soo Jae?” will be written by Kim Ji Eun of “Lie After Lie” and directed by Park Soo Jin, who has worked on dramas including “Doctors,” “Dr. Romantic,” and “Death Song.” It is scheduled to air in the second half of the year.

*****

I did not saw Hwang In Yeop in anything. He is older than Kim Young Dae but he looks younger. Let see if he will sign with this drama.

[agenth]

He played High School students a lot, so it's nice to see him graduate and go to university

This isn't confirmed yet, but it looks like he's strongly considering this drama. 

[Fabbo]

Yeah reading the news i learned he is 30. Really about time to graduate high school

Hwang In-yub courted for professor-student romance drama

by tineybeanie

 

True Beauty star Hwang In-yub may potentially make his drama comeback in upcoming SBS project, Why Oh Soo-jae opposite Seo Hyun-jin (Black Dog). If he confirms, he’ll play the male lead, likely a law school university student who falls in love with his professor, played by Seo Hyun-jin.

 

Previously, it was reported that actor Kim Young-dae (Penthouse) was in the running for the role, but it looks like that’s no longer happening. Seo Hyun-jin’s character has been described as a prickly, ill-tempered professor, but details about the male lead character have been sparse.

Like many other Beanies, the whole teacher-student power dynamic gives me the squicky feels, but hopefully this drama will take this sensitive subject and portray it in a nuanced, meaningful way. With Seo Hyun-jin onboard, I’m reassured that at least the acting will be top-notch.

Written by Kim Ji-eun (Cheongdamdong Scandal) and directed by PD Park Soo-jin (Hymn of Death), Why Oh Soo-jae hasn’t announced a definitive air date or broadcasting stataion. In the meantime, you can get your fix of Hwang In-yub in Netflix drama The Sound of Magic, which is scheduled to air later this year.
