1. [+325, -22] What? Cast in a Star Wars franchise?? As a leading role? That’s crazy ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ I’m a big fan of the franchise already but this is still really amazing ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
2. [+97, -7] I remember when Jung Woo Sung hit daebak with ‘The City of the Rising Sun’ back in the day, everyone assumed Lee Jung Jae’s popularity would run out of steam… but now that time has passed, the exact opposite happened. You really never know how your life will turn out until you live it.
3. [+63, -22] I served with Jung Jae-ssi in the same unit back in ’95 and I remember him being such a kind, heartwarming friend. I support him!
4. [+30, -1] Clap clap clap clap clap
5. [+20, -2] What in the world, I never thought I’d read something like Lee Jung Jae being cast as the lead for Star Wars!!!! Are we going to get to see Lee Jung Jae fling around a light saber? Hoorah! Hoorah! Hoorah!
6. [+16, -1] He’s always done really well with his career but it seems he’s hitting his peak potential now
7. [+12, -0] I hope it’s another great epic like ‘Rogue One’.. ㅠㅠ
8. [+19, -9] Let’s start by getting him some English lessons first
9. [+10, -1] Maybe life truly does begin at 50… same goes for Yoon Yeo Jung
10. [+10, -3] I feel like there’s nothing good that ever comes out of casting Asians in roles like these. I’d rather he just continue creating Korean-centered content with Netflix. He’s only wasting his image by doing other side projects like this.
11. [+5, -0] Lee Jung Jae’s really hitting that mid-life jackpot…
12. [+5, -0] It’s great that he’s doing it but I wish it’s going to be well made… Star Wars quality has been down the drain lately…
13. [+4, -0] His English skills are going to be the biggest obstacle… I hope he practices dilligently and comes away with another successful product
