“Delusion” is based on a webtoon and is set in 1935 Gyeongseong and 1800s Shanghai. The drama follows the intriguing story of artist Yun Yi Ho, who is commissioned to paint a portrait of the enigmatic woman Song Jung Hwa and subsequently visits her hotel. The project is helmed by director Han Jae Rim, known for his work on films like “The Show Must Go On,” “The King,” and “Emergency Declaration.”
According to the report, Suzy was the first actress considered for the role during the planning stages of “Delusion.” However, her casting was initially canceled due to scheduling conflicts. With adjustments to the production timeline, Suzy once again received an offer to play the role of Song Jung Hwa, a mysterious vampire woman.
In March, it was revealed that Han So Hee and Ryu Jun Yeol had received casting offers for “Delusion.” However, both actors announced in the following month that they had discontinued discussions regarding their involvement in the project, following the news of their breakup.
If Suzy accepts the role, it will mark another significant addition to her growing portfolio of diverse and challenging roles. Known for her versatility, Suzy has previously impressed audiences with her performances in various dramas and films, including “While You Were Sleeping,” “Vagabond,” and “Start-Up.” Her potential involvement in “Delusion” is already generating excitement among fans, who are eager to see her take on the complex character of Song Jung Hwa.
