By Han Sang-heeStaff Reporter Actor Lee Joon-ki is up to the task to star in the new drama "Hero - Drama", which starts next month. The 27-year-old has portrayed various roles in recent years, from a court jester ("The King and the Clown", 2005), national security agent ("Time Between Dog and Wolf - Drama", MBC, 2007) to a mysterious thief during the Joseon Kingdom period ("Iljimae", SBS, 2008). "The characters I portrayed in the past were either energetic with a lot of action scenes or emotionally complicated and so I wanted to offer something lighter and fun", he said during a press conference at Melon AX Hall, northern Seoul.

"Hero - Drama" stars Lee as aspiring journalist Jin Do-hyeok, who finds himself working for the newspaper Monday Seoul, famous for its scandalous articles and ruthles...| More | |||||||||||

The event will commemorate the re-opening of his fan club, Splendor. Lee previously recorded and released music in 2006, but his new single in April was his first time back on the music scene. Another EP is due later this year and the undying love of his fans has thrust him back into the public eye. The 27-year-old gained widespread fame for his role as an androgynous court jester in the film "The King and the Clown". Although he has appeared in numerous films, TV dramas and commercials since his surge in popularity, Lee's subsequent endeavors failed to garner as much acclaim in Korea as his original role. Lee continues to have large fan bases in other Asian countries, contributing to a wave of cultural exchange called "hallyu", the term used to describe the welcome of Korean pop culture in Japan, China and oth...| More | |||||||||||
