Lee Jong-won becomes a tennis player
In episodes 1 and 2 of 'Eraser of Bad Memories', which aired on MBN on Friday the 2nd and Saturday the 3rd, a family's conflict surrounding two brothers in conflicting situations was depicted. Lee Jong-won left a strong impression by appearing as the world's No. 1 tennis player 'Lee Shin', who is loved by fans for his extraordinary class from skills to visuals.
In the drama, Lee Shin becomes a pillar of the family by becoming a tennis star after his idol, older brother Lee Gun (played by Kim Jae-joong), retires due to an injury. Although he seemed to indifferently ignore his parents' discriminatory attitude toward him and Lee, he still showed his love and affection for his older brother by worrying and taking care of him.
Lee Shin felt sorry for his brother, who was suffering from past trauma, and showed interest in the 'Bad Memory Eraser' project, which was a life-or-death issue for psychiatrist Gyeongju-yeon (played by Jin Se-yeon). When Lee was on the verge of death due to an unexpected accident, he requested a clinical experiment to erase the bad memories from his brother's mind.
On the other hand, Lee Shin was embarrassed by the 180-degree change in attitude of his older brother Lee, who had succeeded in getting rid of bad memories, but he was careful not to let him go back to his old state of low self-esteem. In this way, Lee Jong-won increased immersion by portraying a multifaceted character.
‘Eraser of Bad Memories’, starring Jong-won Lee, airs every Friday and Saturday at 9:40 PM on MBN.
