With a lot of sad and frustrating incidents that are wearing people out in today’s society, the drama will be telling a compelling story of people who work hard to prevent tragedies from happening.

 

2. Director Oh Choong Hwan’s sensible direction and visual style

 

A lot of people are anticipating director Oh Choong Hwan’s style of directing as he heads this project. So far, the director, who previously worked on the drama “Doctors,†has been hyping up the drama with every teaser that has been released. The events shown in the latest teasers portray the drama in a very interesting and picturesque way.

 

3. A gathering of young and fresh actors

 

“While You Were Sleeping†has been gaining attention as it is Lee Jong Suk and Suzy’s first time working together. Even just the still cuts of them have been receiving great interest. Not only that, actors Lee Sang Yeob, Go Sung Hee, Jung Hae In, and Shin Jae Ha will also be starring in the drama.

The main cast of SBS’s upcoming drama “While You Were Sleeping†gathered together to discuss ratings goals and promises.

 

On September 22, the cast held a Naver V App broadcast in a waiting room ahead of their official press conference. Lee Jong Suk, Suzy, Lee Sang Yeob, Go Sung Hee, and Jung Hae In came together and discussed a variety of topics, one of which was ratings promises.

When asked what they think the ratings for their drama will be, Lee Jong Suk replied, “I think we’ll get an average of 15 to 17 percent in ratings. And I think we’ll be able to surpass 20 percent at one point during the drama as well. There’s going to be a kiss scene in episode 11, and I think that’s when we’ll break the 20 percent mark.†Suzy added, “I can’t really decide, but I want to at least let it be known that I hope we reach 30 percent,†while Go Sung Hee estimated they’d hit 17.5 percent.

 

With their hopes for ratings set, the cast was also asked what they would do if their goals were met. Jung Hae In said he’d hold a free hug event while Go Sung Hee replied, “I’ll wear my prosecutor’s outfit and dance in the middle of the street.†Suzy also said she would dance, but didn’t go into further details.

On September 22, the press conference was held for much-anticipated SBS drama “While You Were Sleeping.†Director Oh Choong Hwan was in attendance along with the actors Lee Jong Suk, Suzy, Lee Sang Yeob, Go Sung Hee, and Jung Hae In were in attendance.

 

“While You Were Sleeping†is about Nam Hong Joo (Suzy), a woman who sees future events in her dreams, and Jung Jae Chan (Lee Jong Suk), a prosecutor who tries to stop the negative events in her dreams from happening.

 

The actors were first asked why they chose to star in the drama. Lee Jong Suk previously worked with the writer Park Hye Ryun on “Pinocchio†and “I Hear Your Voice,†so working with her again was enough of a reason to choose the drama. He has absolute trust in her and believes, “The best choice I have made in life was meeting her.â€

 

Suzy worked with Park Hye Ran, as well, for her acting debut with “Dream High†and wanted to work with her again. She received the script and loved it, so she decided to choose the project. Lee Sang Yeob, Go Sung Hee, and Jung Hae In all shared that they were great fans of the writer and director. Lee Sang Yeob also met the director on “Doctors,†and he wanted to take on a new challenge with a different kind of character.

 

Suzy has been growing her hair for years, but she cut it very short for this drama. When she was asked how she made the decision, she commented, “You’ll see in the drama, but short hair is a very important aspect for the drama, so I did it without hesitating.†She added, “As it is not easy to grow out long hair, people around me were concerned and asked if I’m okay. However, as my hair was long for a long time, I was able to focus more on the character with short hair. It’s really characteristic of Hong Joo.â€

 

Lee Jong Suk, Go Sung Hee, and Lee Sang Yeob were asked about any special effort they put into their prosecutor and lawyer roles. The actors and production team met with people who actually have those occupations to create scenes that are as realistic as possible. Lee Jong Suk and Go Sung Hee also both worked hard on their diction, as neither of them usually speak very clearly.

 

As Suzy’s character sees future events in her dreams, the actors were asked about what they wish they could see in their own dreams. Suzy expressed her curiosity for how long she will live, explaining that she would have to live even more diligently if she doesn’t have a lot of time left. Lee Sang Yeob shared that he wants to know who he will marry so he could begin treating her well right now. Lee Jong Suk and Jung Hae In do not want to see any future events in their dreams, commenting that it would not seem pleasant.

 

“While You Were Sleeping†is coming exclusively to Viki on September 27!

On September 24, SBS broadcast a short preview of their upcoming drama with Lee Jong Suk and Suzy, “While You Were Sleeping.â€

 

In the preview, Lee Jong Suk and Suzy gave a short interview where they talked about each other and what it was like filming. Suzy said, “In the drama, [Lee Jong Suk’s character] represents hope to me, so I fall for him easily. He’s a cool person to fall for and I liked acting it out.â€

 

Lee Jong Suk said, “[suzy] is a lovable, charming girl so I was able to be excited every moment acting a melodrama with her. Wouldn’t you say she’s the greatest actress of our time? She’s beautiful.â€

 

He added, “I had a scene with Suzy at the beach and she came running up to me and it was very refreshing and pretty.â€

 

The actor also had a funny story to share from the beach shoot. He said, “When we were filming by the sea, the staff all said ‘this is the last time’ and told me to drop Suzy into the water. But Suzy grabbed my neck and hung on so I had to fall in the water with her.â€

 

“While You Were Sleeping†will be coming exclusively to Rakuten Viki and is slated to premiere on September 27 KST.

SBS’s upcoming Wednesday-Thursday drama “While You Were Sleeping†revealed shots from an intense scene in new preview stills!

 

In the photos, Jung Jae Chan (played by Lee Jong Suk) is trying to stop Nam Hong Joo (played by Suzy) from falling off a rooftop. Jae Chan slowly approaches Hong Joo step by step while extending a placating hand. Meanwhile, Hong Joo looks like she’s given up on everything with her pale face, red eyes, and dazed expression.

 

However, despite Jae Chan’s efforts, Hong Joo’s expression becomes resolved, and she falls backwards.

In the second still, her mother (Hwang Young Hee) grabs her by the arm and looks saddened as she looks into Suzy’s eyes with tears welling up.

 

The third still shows the two embracing as Nam Hong Joo clings to her mom and sobs her heart out.

A source from the drama stated, “For this scene, Suzy, who had been growing her hair out since her debut seven years ago, unhesitatingly cut her hair. She had that much passion for her character Hong Joo.â€

“While You Were Sleeping†has released new stills!

 

As the SBS Wednesday-Thursday drama starring Lee Jong Suk and Suzy approaches its premiere, the production staff has released more stills as well as what viewers can look forward to in the first episode. Check them out below!

 

1. Hong Joo’s daily life as dreams become a reality!

 

Hong Joo (Suzy), who is currently unemployed, has the ability to see events through her dreams before they happen in reality. Her dreams can either be showing her what will happen five minutes into the future or what will happen in a far-off event. Hong Joo can also dream about other people’s dreams. And while she does have happy dreams, she also dreams of terrible misfortunes. As her dreams are not constrained by a specific time or law, viewers will be able to see the interesting process of how her dreams come true or how they are different from what happens in reality.

2. A strange man appears in her dreams

 

In the first episode, Hong Joo has a dream where she sees herself running towards a strange man that she’s never seen before and hugging him. The morning after the dream, she sees Jae Chan (Lee Jong Suk) and his younger brother (Shin Jae Ha) handing out rice cakes and greeting their neighbors after moving into the neighborhood. Despite the latest teaser showing Hong Joo being surprised and hiding from Jae Chan, many viewers will be able to see how the dream of her hugging Jae Chan will end up happening in reality.

3. The start of an exciting story

 

“While You Were Sleeping†is set to convey a variety of moods as the show has elements of suspense, romance, and more. The first teaser hints at the upcoming events that will happen to Hong Joo and Jae Chan, while the second teaser shows a preview of their romance. The third teaser shows the relationships between Jae Chan, Hong Joo, and Yoo Bum (Lee Sang Yeob). Many viewers are also curious to know more about Suzy’s character and her ability to see future events through her dreams.

 

The production staff stated, “‘While You Were Sleeping’ airs its first episode today. The production team and the actors have worked really hard to present the viewers with a good project.â€

 

Meanwhile, “While You Were Sleeping†is coming exclusively to Viki on September 27!

okay, I just watched the first episode. damn everything is good- cinematography, plot, and characters, I would rate it 10/10.

For those who live in Singapore, Malaysia or Indonesia and have access to ONEtvasia, the channel airs the same time as in SK.

 

storyline spoiler below, open with caution

 

holy crap, most of the scenes I saw in the trailer made sense now. I'm surprised that not only Hong Joo (Suzy) can see future events through her dream, but Jae Chan (Jong Suk) as well. It seems Jae Chan ability is far more extended because he dreamed of why Suzy killed herself during the rooftop scene, meanwhile Suzy dreamed only a part of it. I expect Yoo Bum (Sang Yeob) will be the main antagonist as he has a bad history with Jae Chan.

 

 

spoiler alert, too...

 

 

 

yes, such a plot twist when the whole scenes turned out to be jae chan's dream! that's their hidden card because no one had mentioned about it! excited how the storyline will go because they put almost everything that they teased (to promote this drama) into these first two episodes already.

 

that just-ice parts... and when jae chan's bro guessed the genre of his dream tho... XD

 

 

 

 

I watched the first episode and it was amazing! It gave me the same feels as Goblin but with a different storyline. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!

 

reminds me of w (jongsuk's previous drama), but with a more romantic vibe <3

 

 

Anyone know about the rating so far? I'm so nervous I hope it will have a high rating and become a national hit drama.

 

not yet... still around 5 am in korea~ let's just hope for the best; responds are good so far~

Just finished watching both ep 1/2 and damn it was good. I'm amazed by the quality and the cinematography of the drama it's really stunning.

 

And Suzy needs to get a pat on the shoulder cause girl, her acting has improved. When she was crying I felt it.

 

More in spoiler:

 

Yoo Beom is such an ass. My jaw dropped when he framed and blamed the accident on Hong Joo. Then when her aunt was explaining what happened to her mom ugh.

 

But the plot twist tho. Didn't expect Jae Chan to have dreams as well. Happy the events were turned around.

 

One thing that was awkward was the last scene where Hong Joo was slow motion walking towards Jae Chan I couldn't keep a straight face lol. Other than that I give this drama a 10. Hopefully, the episodes to come will keep on topping each other. Love it so far anticipating the next epS!!

SBS’s current Wednesday-Thursday drama “While You Were Sleeping†has released new stills featuring Suzy and Lee Jong Suk.

 

On September 28, the production staff released the latest stills showing the two main characters Jung Jae Chan (Lee Jong Suk) and Nam Hong Joo (Suzy) meeting at a hospital. Their meeting in the hospital takes place after the car accident from the first episode, where Jae Chan intervenes in an event in order to save Hong Joo’s life from spiraling downward.

The images hint at a comical encounter, as Hong Joo recklessly approaches Jae Chan and surprises him while wearing a neck brace. She looks at him with a suspicious glare, and Jae Chan, who ends up on the floor, looks up at her with a bewildered expression on his face.

 

The production staff stated, “Through the events that happen in the first two episodes, Hong Joo and Jae Chan’s relationship will change. Beyond the stills that were revealed today, their changing relationship will be another enjoyable point to look out for in the drama.â€

SBS revealed new stills of Lee Jong Suk in “While You Were Sleeping†as his character officially starts to work as a prosecutor.

 

In the previous episodes, Lee Jong Suk’s character Jae Chan showed a somewhat clumsy side of himself, but in the upcoming episodes, he’s transforming into a hardworking prosecutor who is focused on his cases.

Jae Chan shows an intense side by giving the defendant across from him a hard glare.

SBS’s “While You Were Sleeping†has released new stills that show how Jung Jae Chan (played by Lee Jong Suk) and Nam Hong Joo (played by Suzy) have changed in their interactions with each other since the first episode.

 

Things have changed between the two since the latest episode that aired on September 28, and that can be seen in the photos. Nam Hong Joo sees the injury on Jung Jae Chan’s forehead and immediately grabs his face to get a better look. While Jae Chan is frozen in shock by Hong Joo’s unexpected behavior, she doesn’t seem to notice as she cleans up the wound and puts a bandage on it.

In a different set of photos, Hong Joo and Jae Chan are waiting at a bus stop together when Hong Joo starts trying to get a laugh out of her counterpart using a pair of glasses. This is completely different from last week when Hong Joo thought Jae Chan had sat next to her because he liked her. It will be interesting to discover why such changes have occurred between the two characters.

The staff of “While You Were Sleeping†stated, “If last week’s events started the changes between Jae Chan and Hong Joo’s relationship, then this week’s episodes will bring about yet another change.â€

 

The next episode of “While You Were Sleeping†will air on October 4 at 10 p.m. KST.

 

If you haven’t started watching the drama yet, why not begin now and join in as the mysteries between Lee Jong Suk and Suzy’s characters are unravelled?

SBS’s Wednesday-Thursday drama “While You Were Sleeping†released new stills of the escalating tension between Jung Jae Chan (Lee Jong Suk) and Lee Yoo Beom (Lee Sang Yeob).

 

In the drama, Jung Jae Chan and Lee Yoo Beom are enemies who have known each other from childhood. Jung Jae Chan is a relatively new prosecutor while Lee Yoo Beom, who was once his tutor, is a high-profile attorney who is well-respected by his co-workers and superiors. Despite Lee Yoo Beom’s flawless reputation, it seems he’s more like the devil-in-disguise, and Jung Jae Chan is the only one who knows that.

 

The new photos show evidence of their ill-fated relationship. From bickering about a legal case to Jung Jae Chan coldly stopping Lee Yoo Beom from laying a hand on him, the two men don’t seem to get along at all.

In the previous episode, Jung Jae Chan and Lee Yoo Beom were handling a domestic violence case. Lee Yoo Beom, whose client is the culprit behind the domestic violence case, tried to persuade Jung Jae Chan that the incident was nothing but a singular case of assault and pressured him to agree to a non-prosecution agreement. Jung Jae Chan, who isn’t fooled at all, nonchalantly says, “So this is how you do it.†Jung Jae Chan pointed out the immoral ways in which Lee Yoo Beom was able to free his client from several domestic violence charges, which angered Lee Yoo Beom.

 

Upcoming episodes will show how Jung Jae Chan and Lee Yoo Beom handle this case.

SBS drama “While You Were Sleeping†has released even more stills, unveiling the slow buildup between Lee Jong Suk and Suzy’s relationship. The drama is about Hong Joo (played by Suzy) who can see the terrible accidents in the future through her dreams and Jae Chan (played by Lee Jong Suk), the prosecutor that works to stop those accidents from happening.

 

In previous episodes, Hong Joo dreamt of Jung Seung Won (played by Shin Jae Ha), Jae Chan’s brother. Jae Chan, who previously didn’t believe Hong Joo could see the future in her dreams, comes to Hong Joo and asks for help desperately.

 

In the stills, Hong Joo focuses wholeheartedly on gently treating Jae Chan’s finger injury, while Jae Chan gazes intently at Hong Joo. The two grow closer as she takes care of his injuries, and they comfort each other.

“While You Were Sleeping†has shared stills from its upcoming episodes that continue the drama’s intense storyline!

 

In the most recent episode, Jung Jae Chan (played by Lee Jong Suk) came to Nam Hong Joo (played by Suzy) to ask for her help in saving his brother, Seung Won. He had had a dream in which his brother was being taken away in a police car, and he also saw Hong Joo in the dream.

 

Hong Joo had also had a dream in which Seung Won became a murderer because of his older brother, and Jae Chan became even more afraid when she told him this.

 

Meanwhile, his brother Seung Won (played by Shin Jae Ha) was trying to stop his friend So Yoon (played by Kim So Hyun) from buying anti-freeze to use to kill her father due to his abuse of her mother.

 

In a newly released still, Jae Chan is anxiously calling someone as Hong Joo watches him and listens.

 

Meanwhile, Seung Won is trying to prevent So Yoon from attempting murder, while her father threatens her mother back at home.

A source from “While You Were Sleeping†said, “As Jae Chan is changing the future, time is flowing in a different direction. We hope that you’ll tune in at 10 p.m. for episodes 5 and 6 to see if Jae Chan and Hong Joo will be able to change the future again with their combined strength, and what Seung Won’s fate will be.â€

 

They added, “We thank the viewers for their love and interest.â€

“While You Were Sleeping†has released new stills featuring Lee Jong Suk, Shin Jae Ha, and Hwang Young Hee.

 

The SBS Wednesday-Thursday drama recently unveiled new images showing Jae Chan (Lee Jong Suk) receiving lots of love from Yoon Moon Sun (Hwang Young Hee), who is Nam Hong Joo (Suzy)’s mom.

 

In the previous episodes, Hong Joo’s mom closely observed Jae Chan as well as police officer Han Woo Tak (Jung Hae In) when they came to visit her daughter at the restaurant. As she even gave them both point scores on her notebook, many viewers are interested to find out why Yoon Moon Sun becomes so affectionate to Jae Chan in the upcoming episodes.

 

In the latest stills, Jae Chan not only receives from her a present of mackerel side dishes, but he also gets invited to eat breakfast at their house. The images show him looking at the food with a surprised expression, while his younger brother Seung Won (Shin Jae Ha) looks excited to start eating.

The production staff stated, “It’s a chance for Yoon Moon Sun to really show Jae Chan an infinite amount of affection. Viewers will be able to find out what kind of situation unfolds between the two in the upcoming broadcast.â€

SBS’s Wednesday-Thursday drama “While You Were Sleeping†has released new tills of Suzy as a reporter. The drama is about Hong Joo (played by Suzy), who has the ability to see unfortunate events in her dreams and prosecutor Jung Jae Chan (played by Lee Jong Suk) who does everything in his power to stop those events.

 

Spoiler

 

On October 10, the drama released stills of Hong Joo, played by Suzy, working in a past career.

 

Currently unemployed Hong Joo, who has been helping out at her mother’s restaurant, was formerly a reporter for broadcasting station SBC. As Hong Joo did not know Jae Chan’s phone number and kept getting lost, she offered her business card and stated she was taking a break from work. Her business card revealed that she was formerly a SBC newsroom reporter.

 

In the released stills, Hong Joo looks serious dressed in formal attire holding a mic as she prepares to report a segment. Her previously long hair, cut short in the present by herself, is tied back sleekly. She is also seen struggling with a police officer as she proffers her mic to ask questions.

 

In the previews for episode 9-10, a few things about Hong Joo’s former life as a reporter were shown. Thanks to chief prosecutor Park Dae Young (played by Lee Ki Young), Hong Joo was a successful local reporter known to be a tough cookie. It was also revealed that Hong Joo dreamt that she was going to die as a reporter, and viewers were able to see that she struggled between choosing to be reinstated and stepping down.

 

In the second pair of stills, the now short haired Hong Joo wears a red apron from her mother’s restaurant, as she gazes forlornly off into the distance.

A source from the drama stated, “After revealing Hong Joo’s past career last week, this week’s episodes will show her unfortunate situation and how she had no choice to stop working, and will show how she is living a much different life.â€

SBS has released stills previewing the upcoming ninth and tenth episodes of its newest Wednesday-Thursday drama “While You Were Sleeping.â€

 

In the stills, Han Woo Tak (Jung Hae In) shows up at Nam Hong Joo’s (Suzy) restaurant once again and shows her his notebook. In his notebook, Han Woo Tak has been chronicling details of this and that since finding out that Jung Jae Chan (Lee Jong Suk) and Nam Hong Joo are also able to see the future in their dreams.

 

Last week’s episodes revealed Han Woo Tak’s ability to foresee the future through his dreams and the past connection between Jung Jae Chan and Nam Hong Joo. The revelation of the three characters’ commonality of prophetic dreams has only heightened the viewers’ curiosity as to the connection between all three characters.

 

Nam Hong Joo had never been successful at preventing her dreams from becoming a reality until she met Jung Jae Chan. They were able to prevent Jung Jae Chan’s brother Jung Seung Won (Shin Jae Ha) from becoming a killer, as well as her hand being stabbed with a chopstick.

 

Since then, Han Woo Tak has been writing down common traits between him, Nam Hong Joo, and Jung Jae Chan in his notebook. Last episode, he circled “good-looking men and woman†and smiled. However, he’s not the only one secretly writing things down in his notebook. Nam Hong Joo’s mom Yoon Moon Sun (Hwang Young Hee) has been comparing points between him and Jung Jae Chan to see who is more qualified to become her daughter’s suitor.

 

A source from the drama said, “Inside of Han Woo Tak’s notebook, there are clues. Please look forward to what is inside of the notebook which he will reveal to Nam Hong Joo for the very first time.â€
