Set to premiere later today, The Law Cafe tells the ŌĆ£law-manceŌĆØ story of a prosecutor-turned-landlord and a whimsical lawyer. Lee Se Young introduced the drama as ŌĆ£a romance, comedy, healing drama with a hint of law.ŌĆØ Lee Seung Gi chimed in, ŌĆ£Most legal dramas are conducted within the courts, but our drama deals with the clients who visit the cafe to seek legal advice. ItŌĆÖs going to be a warm, healing drama.ŌĆØ Kim Jung Ho, played by Lee Seung Gi, was a genius elite prosecutor who always topped his class but is now a web novel writer and an owner of a building. ŌĆ£HeŌĆÖs by far the smartest character IŌĆÖve played,ŌĆØ the actor explained. ŌĆ£IŌĆØ ve always wanted to play a genius role, but I never got the offer. It finally happened 18 years after my debut, and I couldnŌĆÖt miss this chance.ŌĆØ Lee Seung Gi and Lee Se Young will turn into ex-lovers who reunite as a landlord and the new tenant in The Law Cafe. ŌĆ£In rom-coms, the lead characters have to stay in the same space or continue to bicker with each other. So this is the perfect setting for that.ŌĆØ Lee Se Young talked about reuniting with Lee Seung Gi four years after A Korean Odyssey. ŌĆ£Now IŌĆÖm comfortable around him, but it was a bit difficult at first because in A Korean Odyssey, I was a zombie that lived off him (Lee Seung Gi). Then later, I turned into a villain. So it was a bit awkward at first,ŌĆØ she shared. Source (1)
