Park Seo Jun is set to charm viewers once again—this time as a veteran entertainment reporter in JTBC’s upcoming romance drama Waiting for Gyeongdo.
Waiting for Gyeongdo (LT) tells the story of Lee Kyung-do (Park Seo Jun) and Seo Ji-woo (played by Won Ji An), former lovers who dated twice in the past—once at 20 and again at 28—only to break up both times. Fate brings them back together in the most unexpected way: as a reporter covering an affair scandal and the wife of the man at the center of that very controversy. Their bittersweet reunion unfolds into a warm yet emotionally charged tale of love, loss, and second chances.
Park Seo Jun reunites with JTBC for this project, taking on the role of Lee Kyung-do, the deputy head of the entertainment department at the fictional newspaper Dongwoon Ilbo. Known for his nuanced acting and ability to bring depth to every character, Park is expected to deliver another memorable performance that balances realism, humor, and emotional weight.
Recently released stills give fans a first glimpse of Park Seo Jun as the world-weary yet charismatic reporter. Dressed in a slightly loosened tie and crisp shirt, Kyung-do appears exhausted after a long day, still clutching his phone to monitor breaking entertainment news. His sharp yet weary gaze captures the fatigue of an experienced journalist who has seen it all.
Another image shows him sitting alone in a small noodle restaurant, a bottle of soju by his side. The mix of melancholy and contemplation on his face hints at a turning point in his life—perhaps the calm before the storm. The photos alone convey a subtle yet striking emotional shift, fueling curiosity about the event that will upend his carefully managed world.
Waiting for Gyeongdo promises to explore not just rekindled romance but also the intricate emotions of people who have matured through heartbreak and compromise. Through Park Seo-joon’s layered portrayal, viewers will witness Lee Kyung-do’s journey from the confident face of youth to a man marked by the weight of reality.
The drama, blending relatable emotions with sharp storytelling, is scheduled to premiere later this year, with high expectations surrounding Park Seo-joon’s deeply human and charismatic transformation.
