Actors Lee Jin-wook and Hyeri are set to star in the new drama ‘Esquire’.
According to the broadcasting industry on the 18th, Lee Jin-wook and Hyeri are positively considering appearing in ‘Esquire’.

Filming is scheduled to begin next March, and it will be produced by Channel S and aired on JTBC.
‘Esquire’ refers to the title for a lawyer in the English-speaking world, and Lee Jin-wook and Hyeri plan to transform into lawyers in the drama.
This is their first time acting together, and there is anticipation for what kind of chemistry they will show.
Lee Jin-wook, who recently received love for his role as Hyun-ho in the Genie TV original drama ‘My Dear Harry’, will be meeting audiences through the upcoming Netflix release ‘Squid Game 2’. There is interest in what new charm he will show as a lawyer in ‘Esquire’.
