Lee Jong-seok appeared on the cover of the magazine between Korea and Japan.
Lee Jong-seok took on the role of wearing glasses for the first time in Seocho-dong. Once I decided, I had to wear glasses throughout every episode, so I was looking for glasses with all my heart and soul, but it was a glasses that caught my eye, so it was nice to have a photo shoot this time."
Lee Jong-seok, who played the role of a lawyer again in his return work 'Seochodong' after three years of 'Big Mouse', said 'Big Mouse' was not a work focused on the lawyer's activities. In this work, he fully plays the role of a lawyer, but there are not many scenes in court where he has heated arguments and objections. It's a multi-person work, so you can think of it as a daily drama that focuses on the bonds between people. Ahn Joo-hyung is not a person who has decided on a job with a grand meaning, but a characteristic that it is not dramatic.
Asked if he had gained anything from this work, he said, `Mun Ga-young, Kang Yoo-seok, Ryu Hye-young, and Lim Sung-jae are the main characters. I got these four actors rather than the newness in me. It feels like I'm watching the game with my natural character, not the background of my role. It's a new drama that doesn't create synergy by accumulating events and emotions, but it's a little bit of a new drama where five people can sit together and eat together. So it was a scene where actors got closer and influenced each other," he said, making him look forward to the chemistry with the actors.
Also, he has positive expectations for the Year of the Snake this year, saying, `This year is the Year of the Snake. Since I was born in the Year of the Snake, I vaguely thought that something would go well this year.Actually, I thought I wanted to rest a little more, but I know that there are people who are waiting for me, so I made a plan from last year to work really hard this year. So I thought about what genre or work I haven't done so far. The projects I'm going to do in the future are more challenging than what I like and enjoy. I haven't shown you yet, but this decision and decision were meaningful to me," he said, expressing serious thoughts and enthusiasm for his work.
He is about to film "The Remarried Empress" and said, "The original work is so popular that implementing it in a live-action project can be a challenge and adventure for the director, actors, and staff, and there will be many things to prepare, but I think it will be more fun. I'm going to refer to the original and follow the director's direction and do what he tells me to do"He expressed his excitement and determination to prepare a new work.
Recently, Lee Jong-seok's open lover IU asked Lee Jong-seok's feelings in an interview on `I was completely deceived,' saying, `I think I haven't seen him yet because he has to promote until today and he's busy.'
The two have been in an open relationship for three years since December 2022.
