Director Lee Byung Hun, known for “Extreme Job” and “Melo Is My Nature,” has stepped down from helming Kim Eun Sook’s highly anticipated Netflix series “All The Love You Wish For” (working title) starring Kim Woo Bin and Suzy.
On January 27, Edaily reported that Director Lee Byung Hun had left the project during production last year due to personal reasons.
Confirming the news, a representative from the production team stated, “It is true that Director Lee Byung Hun stepped down for personal reasons.” They further revealed that Director Ahn Gil Ho of “The Glory” joined the production as the B-team director in July 2024, helping to complete the filming. The representative added, “We ask for your understanding that we cannot provide further details regarding the timing and reasons for Director Lee Byung Hun’s departure.”
Filming for the series was completed in late October last year, and post-production is currently in full swing, with the series set to premiere sometime this year.
The production team added, “‘All The Love You Wish For’ requires significant technical work such as CGI, so we are dedicating great effort to post-production. A team of professionals from various fields has collaborated extensively to create what we hope will be one of the best projects of the year.”
Starring Kim Woo Bin, Suzy, Ahn Eun Jin, and Noh Sang Hyun, “All The Love You Wish For” is a fantasy rom-com about an overly emotional genie trapped inside a lamp and the woman who helps him escape his prison. The drama is penned by Kim Eun Sook, the famous writer known for hit dramas such as “The Glory,” “Goblin,” “Mister Sunshine,” and “Heirs.”
