Thank you for bringing your work to life (: Gia Jan 28 2022 12:52 am Yes, i was late watching stranger session 1 and 2 and life in 2021... But, seriously Stranger session 1 was so so well written.. Life was good too... Now, i really want stranger session 3 with same casts.. Writernim, please make it happen Jinia Sep 26 2021 8:06 am I love your writing. Stranger has been wonderful leaving me hoping for another season. However I have enjoyed Life as well. Prior to retirement I was an administrator in the role of Director of Patient Care Services for a “for profit “. Y I felt you in my shoes! I hope you have an opportunity to produce Zero. I have no idea where you will take us but I am in the car Joe Ligotti May 22 2021 5:16 pm (Season 2) - A superbly written exploration of the role of integrity in human life. Without integrity - without an unbreached devotion to the virtues which make human life possible - lives disintegrate, suffer, fall apart, usually in the most tragic (because preventible) ways imaginable. Those who refuse such compromises are the true heroes among us, and Stranger (especially Season 2) is a magnificent telling of their struggles. It is so refreshing to see a real battle, fought over crucially important values, where the outcome really matters to me, the viewer, on a deeply personal level. To the actors, director, crew - and especially writer - who gave us this drama, thank you and congratulations. This work is truly a great and inspiring achievement. Sara Apr 18 2021 2:07 pm We need Stranger season 3. please :((the Gruvee Mar 03 2021 4:34 pm Hi will you do open casting for NaNa or MoonGaYoung to be pairing with SeoKangJoon, thanks Neil Garland Feb 01 2021 7:11 pm I am retired due to ill health and have a passion for Korean drama. I have watched over 50 of them so far and I am facinated by the diversity of the story lines, although some leave a little to be desired, most of them are very good. Like Crash Landing on You, Stranger, Something in the Rain, Voice, Aetowon Class, Cheese in the Trap and many more. I am not a writer but i do have a couple of ideas that might inspire a good writer to create a storyline. If you are interested, could you please reply with an address for me to send my ideas to. Cheers Neil Yulis Prasetia Nov 08 2020 9:02 pm I just finish watch stranger 1 and 2. I really enjoyed so much, the plot and the actor is perfect and amazing. Thank you Ms. Writer Lee Soo-Yeon bringing the story to the screen. I am looking for the third season for sure. Would you mind for the next season bring more intense story such as politic strugle in the circle of prosecutor, police, Hanjo and also Lee Sung Jae as im bit curious about his character as the previous season he is being the talk quite sometime. Joy Oct 23 2020 12:27 pm Thank you for bringing your imaginations to screen. I really love Stranger 1 & 2. One of the few K-Dramas that doesn't need romance to survive. Its characters, storyline, and overall message is truly one of a kind. I hope there will be Season 3 for Stranger. Sgfan Oct 14 2020 8:08 am I love stranger 1 and 2. Very intense and amazing. Need a season 3 for stranger pls!! And more scenes of simok n yeojin together. At least a few more scenes showing how much they really care and worry for each other. enca Oct 06 2020 5:27 am Well done sir/ma'am looking forward to your Stranger ep ,3in the making fira Oct 04 2020 9:33 pm hi writer nim, i really like Stranger season 2 . i got so much massage from this drama. please give season 3 and. one thing give me a little romance from hwang geomsa and inspektur han... I'm waiting for the sequel, okay? annmasae Sep 30 2020 7:27 pm Really enjoying Season 2. It started off slow but got very exciting as the plot unfolded. The screenwriter did a terrific job again. The main 2 leads are great working together. I know there won't be any romance but we can always hope. Can't wait for this weekend's exciting conclusion. Please.... Please....Season 3. Helohelo Sep 28 2020 6:29 pm Hi, we're hoping for a season 3! Cant get enough of seeing simok n yeojin :( or possible to drag stranger2 to 20 episodes? We love seeing simok n yeojin working on a task together! And the expressionless simok who ONLY smiles to yeojin.. ? sweetness!! Barbara Johnson Sep 06 2020 2:29 pm Brilliantly written!!! I'm having to watch each episode twice to absorb the impact. SaveStranger2 Aug 30 2020 11:31 am Hi! Pls make more scenes for simok n yeojin or simok himself in stranger 2. The reason for most of us rooting for strangerseason 2 is cos of their superb chemistry in season1. Most of their scenes makes it all worthwhile. Fans all around the world create clips for simok and yeojin cos we love to see them!! Its already ep 6, too many unneccessary scenes , politics and dialogues. Lack of mystery, thrills,.. and other elements just like in season 1.. :( Pls writernimm. U can do better than this! ❤ hwaiting!!~ Celine Aug 29 2020 2:57 am Please cast Kim Dong Wook! And please work again with Shin Hye Sun to your next drama.

Alin Oct 17 2018 9:26 pm The best portrayal of how realistic a drama should be. I am looking forward to all of your future's works and please make Stranger S2 with the same cast. Sarah Lemire Sep 16 2018 9:53 am All the females in this show had such distinct characters and some of the best smart pithy lines. I will definitely watch Stranger and hope to see so much more of this writer. He was dead on for female doctors who have strong personalities. Great great writing. I want more from you. Alicia Sep 13 2018 10:51 am I admire your work, Mrs Lee Soo-Yeon. I am waiting for your next projects. Wayer Sep 05 2018 10:52 am The writer for JTBC's LIFE is the same as tVN's Stranger. How utterly cool is that. The fact that she casts many similar faces in both dramas is awesome too. Cho Seung Woo is a remarkable actor. Adding Lee Dong Wook in Life makes it more eye candy.. casting for writer nim is very well done, always has eye candies ? JD Sep 02 2018 10:05 pm Writer-nim we need Stranger 2 PLEASEEEE .... we miss hwang shi mok and his team really hope you will write the script Artemis Apr 12 2018 9:37 am Totally loveeeed the script.

Charlotte Hunter Sep 19 2017 4:36 pm Secret Forest is a stand-alone drama--no need to revisit a second season--please leave the characters and that world for my imagination to keep playing with. Thanks for a taught, twisty taste of what you write. I especially liked your shockingly- wonderful portrayal of our very human and empathetic villain. Wow, so well drawn. d I couldn't find any other works under you name, but I will be staying alert...watchful another chance to see your amazing talents as a writer.

I wanted to know more about Hwang Shi Mok, Yeo Jin, Seo Dong Jae and others. ...I will be waiting for your another work. LoneGunMan Aug 02 2017 6:06 pm I just wanted to commend you on Stranger. One of the best dramas I have ever seen. The ending did not disappoint. I liked the banter between Hwang Shi-Mok and Han Yeo-Jin at the end about the noodles and her lipstick too showing the friendship and respect they had developed with each other. Showed the changes in Hwang Shi-Mok from episode 1 to episode 16. Will look forward to your new endeavors in the future! Thanks again!! Show the 33 previous comments...
