An actor in The Remarried Empress getting a better response than expected.

Viewers say Lee Jong-suk’s dry delivery makes even The Remarried Empress’s cheesy lines work better than expected.

Lee Jong-suk in The Remarried Empress is an air fryer—he delivers cheesy lines so damn dryly 🕊️ It’s an honor to meet you, my queen 🕊️ I already like you 🕊️ Are you saying Your Majesty wasn’t looking forward to dancing with me? 🕊️ Oh, are you married by any chance? What a shame 🕊️ Good. Keep looking at me like that 🕊️ I miss you

The one I’m talking about: Lee Jong-suk

Compared to when the teaser first dropped,

a lot of people are saying he fits even better after watching the drama, for real.....

I can’t imagine Heinrey being anyone but Lee Jong-suk lol. He delivers those insanely cheesy lines without making them feel cheesy, and even makes them believable and convincing lolllll. At the end of the day, nothing beats someone who’s insanely good at their actual job—acting, visuals, everything.

I thought he’d do well from the moment I heard the casting news, but the first teaser was way worse than I expected. I was like, oh, even Lee Jong-suk can’t overcome this universe. But once the full thing came out, he was even better than I originally expected lol. I worried for nothing. He really was born to play webtoon characters.

I wasn’t expecting much, but I was surprised by how well he fits the role. Heinrey taking care of Navier also has the effect of making the character look even cooler.
