When he was
16 he moved to America with his family. He went to college in
America living a normal life and had a dream of becoming an actor.
He had always wanted to be an actor since his childhood. So he
decided to return to Korea to pursue his dream of becoming an actor.
The Beginning Struggle:
In 1995 the super talent contest
he won an award which began his acting career. He did some drama
series where he portrayed his acting ability. He tried his best
but in the acting community he was just another hopeful. He
worked very hard but the competition was great and he was afforded
little opportunity to showcase his ability. This unfortunately,
meant that he was not discovered right away and had to struggle for
many years. He even quit acting for a time until he gained
enough confidence to try again. He even thought about returning
to America.
Overnight Stardom:
He then had a part in a drama
which became his climb to stardom called Maewhayunga. This
as it turned out was the opportunity of a lifetime. Upon the
release of this series, he was discovered and his immense fan base
began growing at a very rapid pace. The ratings of this series
was very high and very popular throughout Korea. He impressed many
people with his acting talents and is well renowned throughout Korea
as being a gifted actor. This series single-handedly proved that
he was for real and that he was a great actor. That drama was
the one that hooked me and hence became one of his biggest fans.
I still remember watching him and it still gives me Goosebumps
thinking about how moved I was by his acting ability. His
charisma is contagious and affects people from all walks of life.
I wish him all the best and hope that his career is long and
prosperous.
Mr. Lee - The Person:
Even though I never met him, I
believe him to be very down to earth, caring and compassionate.
My feelings are reinforced in some of his writings and first hand
encounters with his fans. The one thing that really impresses me
is that he does not act like he is too good for regular people.
He hasn't let fame go to his head.....
.
The
reason I made a web page about Mr. Lee
because I was so impressed with his acting ability. I want everyone to
know about him and his great acting talent. I wanted to make sure that
both Korean and English speaking people could access my site and
understand why I think so highly of him. You already know that I
admire his acting ability but I also like him as an individual.^^
He is a very caring person and is down to earth.
He takes time for his fans and is always respectful of them. He is
always trying to improve his acting skills so the he can become the
best. This is not because he wants the glory but instead because of
his love for acting. I like him as an actor and as a person and I hope
that I can show everyone why.

the best I can for everyone that visits. If you have any suggestions
