Lee Jong-suk exits Iseop's Romance K-Drama as filming schedule delays force casting change

Lee Jong-suk has exited the K-Drama Iseop's Romance due to film schedule delays, with his agency confirming his departure. The project's agency, ACE FACTORY, disclosed the change in a statement to Dispatch on September 3.

Iseop's Romance, adapted from a web novel by Kim Eun Hee, is set in the world of a workplace romance and is scheduled for production this year alongside Calm Lies.
