Actor Lee Jong-suk explained the reason he chose 'The Remarried Empress.'

On the morning of the 3rd, a production report meeting for Disney+'s 'The Remarried Empress' was held at the Conrad Hotel in Yeouido, Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul. Actors Shin Min-a, Joo Ji-hoon, Lee Jong-suk, and Lee Se-young, along with Director Jo Su-won, attended the event.

'The Remarried Empress' is a romance fantasy epic in which Navi (played by Shin Min-a), the perfect empress of the Dongdae Empire, is notified of divorce by Emperor Soviesh (played by Joo Ji-hoon), who has fallen for the runaway slave Rasta (played by Lee Se-young). In lieu of accepting the divorce, she requests approval to remarry Heinrey (played by Lee Jong-suk), a prince of the Western Kingdom.

When asked about his reason for appearing in the work, Lee Jong-suk said, "I enjoyed reading the webtoon, and when I heard it was being produced as a drama, I thought that although it might be unfamiliar, it would not be boring, so I decided to join." He added, "I also thought, 'When else will I get to play a prince?' which is why I joined."

In response, host Park Kyung-rim praised him by saying, "Mr. Lee Jong-suk looks like a prince today as well," to which Lee Jong-suk replied, "Thank you," smiling shyly.

Meanwhile, 'The Remarried Empress' will be released on Disney+. The series was originally scheduled to release episodes 1 through 4 on the 4th, but has been moved up by one day and will be released on the 3rd. Thereafter, two episodes will be released every Wednesday, for a total of 10 episodes.
