Actor Lee Soo Hyuk is reportedly about to play opposite Suzy in the much-awaited K-drama 'Men Of The Harem,' and fans are already intrigued by his chances of getting to play a scarce male consort role.

The new series, which was based on a successful webtoon, is housed in the 'Tarium Empire'. Suzy will play the role of Latil, whose father gets assassinated and whose lover betrays her.

She has no choice but to take the throne and decides not to install a queen but invites five young men into her harem—an unexpected twist in K-drama storytelling.

The announcement that Lee Soo Hyuk has been invited for the lead part is generating buzz on social media.

To fans, his elegant aura and striking visuals make him the best candidate to play royalty.

A netizen posted, This face was born to play royalty." Another commented, "Start filming already!!"

The thrill is based on more than hype. Lee Soo Hyuk, Han So Hee, and Cha Eun Woo were featured in a promotional clip for the webtoon 'The Villainess Is a Marionette' in 2022.

His role as Prince Rezef Hill earned general acclaim for his charm and royal bearing, further solidifying his reputation for seamlessly assuming historical and fantasy roles.

With Lee paired up with Suzy, commonly referred to as the "Nation's First Love," anticipation has only grown stronger.

The fans feel that the combination of his authoritative presence and her established star power will prove to be a strong and compelling on-screen pair.

The production also features an experienced creative team. My dearest screenwriter Hwang Jin Young and director Lee Eung Bok, who is known for hits like Goblin and Mr. Sunshine, are behind the production.

That pairing is what audiences hope to see to promise quality storytelling and production.

Netizens expressed their excitement on the net. One fan said, "With that director, writer, and production company, the drama is guaranteed to be good. The cast's visuals are perfect." Another reaction read, "Can't wait to see him"

Others complimented his unmatched charm, saying, "Explosive visuals" and "Time to add another thread to my obsession."

While Lee Soo Hyuk's casting is not officially announced, the increasing hype indicates fans are prepared to accept him as one of K-drama's most dashing "royal consorts."
