Silly thing to say before the drama has even premiered. Have you read the script?

This has (thankfully) been moved from a Wed-Thu slot to a weekend slot. Confirmed to premiere in the second half on 2025, most likely towards the end of the year (last weekend drama to premiere in 2025).

Q4 2025

Excited about this! It should start filming soon, so I'm guessing Q1/Q2 2026 release.

It was just the direct translation of the Korean title. Was never gonna be the English title.

Just Netflix things. Trauma Code and Weak Hero 2 didn't even have release dates at the start of the month they were released in. So it'll probably still take a while.

It's Netflix. Nothing's going to happen until like July probably.

What is this new English title? The Tyrant's Chef was SO much better than this goofy ass title.
I guess since it's a comedy they wanted a more ... comedic title, but this is just a bit too silly😭

First half of 2026 is starting to fill up for Disney as well, so it's gonna be while either way. Supposedly they didn't even finish filming Season 2 before everything was put on hold either.

It was filmed in 2022. Not his fault it's coming out now.

Yep, there's also been talk for years of a TVING/Wavve merger to better mount a domestic competitor to Netflix/Disney. But we'll see.

They have TVING domestically and Kocowa for many global markets, so a lack of Korean streaming platforms is not the issue. It's just that Disney and Netflix are difficult to compete with.

Strange that they didn't show the rest of the confirmed main cast for Delusion, just the two leads.

Grow up

This is set to start filming in July. 12-episode tvN drama scheduled for the first half of 2026.

Love the poster, I see the vision

I was worried about which glasses they'd choose for LJS, but thankfully these are fine and not too much.

And neither did 30-something Byeon Woo-seok in Lovely Runner or countless other actors who successfully played high school students. Casting directors don't make their choice based on who looks most like they could pass for 17, but rather on who would give the best performance.

Mentioning Choi Hyun-wook is funny because so many were outraged he wasn't playing a high school student in My Dearest Nemesis, and that they "couldn't take him seriously" when not in a school uniform. It's such a limiting perspective. I'm sure he's looking forward to doing more non-high-school roles.

Choo Young-woo is just 25 and can easily still do high school. Not sure why you think Choi Hyun-wook would be a better fit for a character who has a cold and hard exterior, considering that's pretty much the opposite of most of his trademark lovable, goofy characters.

To be released in January 2026. Also 16 episodes apparently, not 12.
