Following reports of INFINITE’s L being considered to star in JTBC’s “Solomon’s Perjury” (tentative title) it has been decided that he will not be taking the said role in the drama.
On November 1, a source from “Solomon’s Perjury” confirmed, “Due to schedule-related issues, L will not be able to appear [in the drama]. He wanted to join the drama, but he ultimately turned it down.”
Woollim Entertainment also commented on November 1, “[L] is currently wrapping up the 4-episode KBS drama ‘The Day After We Broke Up’ (tentative title), and nothing has been decided about his next project yet.”
“Solomon’s Perjury” is based on a novel of the same name by famous Japanese author Miyuki Miyabe. The drama’s story unfolds when a student is killed in a fall on Christmas day, and his classmates try to uncover the truth behind the incident. Casting for the Korean drama remake is currently underway.
Meanwhile, L is set to star in his first lead role alongside Tahiti’s Jisoo in “The Day After We Broke Up,” which is described as a Christmas fantasy romance about an indie band vocalist who involuntarily leaps through time.
“The Day After We Broke Up” is a joint Korean-Japanese production which will air within the year.

Date: 2016-11-04 03:26 pm (UTC)He was such a cutie in it.
SUFBB was my first Kdrama ever so I have a soft spot for it and I like that it focused on friendships but once I rewatched by trying to make friends watch it and never made it very far I realized it wasn't that great lol.

Date: 2016-11-04 03:56 pm (UTC)I just think he still has a long way to be a good and consistent actor. ofc he could surprise me, but considering his past projects, I still don't think he's ready to lead a drama. he will avoid all the "idol shouldn't be acting" hate. imo, he should take more supporting/second lead projects before going with a leading role.

Date: 2016-11-04 08:39 pm (UTC)my comment was more about his acting. I don't think comparing with his members or other idols is the point (maybe I'm contradicting myself because I did the "avoid the idol-turned-actor" comment). I don't think woohyun, hoya or sungyeol are better than him. but I also don't think that having a lot of projects or years of experience equals leading roles. maybe my earlier comments pointed to this, so sorry if I gave this impression... when I talk about getting more supporting roles is not necessarily to have more curriculum, but to have more chances to develop his acting to a level that he won't be so questioned? ofc development is not something that you should stop when you got to a certain level, but I just think he has some aspects to his acting to get better.
I completely agree with you that there are other idols that got leading roles without having acting talent to justify. but I'm not talking about them because 1. I don't think this fact should "justify" giving him a leading role (when I don't think he's ready for it) 2.the post is about myungsoo, so I only left a comment about him.
but of course, this is just my personal opinion. and I'm more than ready to be surprised by him (ex: this short drama he did)
