Actor Lee Jong Suk is starring in the upcoming tvN drama 'Seochodong'.

On November 5, his label ACE FACTORY confirmed the actor has been cast in the new tvN drama. 'Seochodong' tells the story about associate lawyers in Seocho Judicial Town, and it's written by practicing lawyer Lee Seung Hyun. The drama is expected to portray the realistic story and growth of lawyers as they take on everyday cases.

Lee Jong Suk is taking on the role of lawyer Ahn Joo Hyung, who's a logic-oriented lawyer in his 9th year. Though he became a lawyer because of his love of logic, he never intended to take on a profession that protects the weak and serves change in the world through justice. Now, he sees his own stable and comfortable work life facing conflicts.

Also starring in the drama is Moon Ga Young, who's playing the role of second-year lawyer Kang Hee Ji. 

'Seochodong' is slated to air in the first half of 2025. Stay tuned for updates.
