Actor Yoo Yeon-seok remembered the late actor Lee Soon-jae, who passed away.
Yoo Yeon-seok said on the 26th, `The teacher I've seen since college was a really big adult and a true teacher. I was able to survive 10 years of being unknown because of your words," he said.
Then "If you do what you really like, you should know how to do it silently for at least 10 years' When I met the teacher at school and in the field, I always admired his passion for acting and his attitude as an actor, and I learned and reflected again. Thank you so much for your teaching and love for your juniors and disciples. Mr. Lee Soonjae, I respect you and love you," he mourned.
Yoo Yeon-seok drew attention by releasing photos taken with Lee Soon-jae from his rookie days until recently. In particular, Lee Soon-jae's warm and kind smile, which is now not seen again, made the viewers even more miserable.
Meanwhile, Lee Soon-jae passed away early on the 25th. He was 91. The deceased, who had been rumored to have health problems since last year, still burned his acting spirit last year by appearing in the KBS2 drama 『GaeSori』, but the play 『Waiting for Godot』 brought about a break.
Lee Soon-jae, who won the grand prize last year for 'GaeSori' at the '2024 KBS Acting Awards', said "Viewers who came so late and encouraged me like this, and viewers who are watching at home, I have been indebted and helped a lot throughout my life. Thank you."I once expressed my feelings.
The mortuary was set up in Room 30 of the funeral hall of Asan Medical Center in Seoul, and the coffin is 6:20 a.m. on the 27th, and the burial site is Icheon Eden Paradise.
