Actor Lee Jun-hyuk has risen as the cover star of the fashion magazine ‘Elle Man ELLE MAN’. Fashionably pulling off Loewe's outfits, Lee Jun-hyuk showcased a variety of looks, from his intense gaze to witty poses, flaunting his irreplaceable presence.
When asked if he feels the hot love for him as a ‘trending’ actor these days, he replied, “I’m in a hectic state as the next shoot has started. However, I do feel that there are more projects coming my way. The staff and those around me seem to be more excited than I am, and I always say, ‘Let’s not get too carried away’ (laughs). In those moments, I think the project must have done well.”
Having recently showcased diverse faces in various genres such as ‘The Outlaws 3’, ‘Good or Bad Dong-jae’, and ‘My Perfect Secretary’, he commented on playing a good father in ‘My Perfect Secretary’, saying, “I don’t think this work was a drama that shows the reality of parenting. There are works that highlight the parts of the world that need to change while showing reality, and there are those that present a blueprint. Even if it feels like a fantasy, it’s also necessary to present a ‘model’ that gives strength and encourages progress, and this time, I aimed for the latter direction.”
Behind his gentle and relaxed expression, Lee Jun-hyuk, skilled in ‘charging’ and ‘breaking through’, was asked how he has driven himself over nearly 20 years of acting. He responded, “I think I have thoroughly separated the characters from myself. In fact, I tend to be afraid of stepping into the spotlight, but I believe that the existence of Lee Jun-hyuk can be rediscovered or created again, as seen in today’s photoshoot with flowers. As a movie enthusiast, I enjoy the process of interpreting the meanings embedded in the frame, and it becomes interesting when I objectively interpret Lee Jun-hyuk within any frame. The process of creating and conveying something abstract that has never existed before with a common goal is fascinating. Perhaps that has been my pure driving force.”
The photoshoot and interview with Lee Jun-hyuk can be found in the March issue of Elle and on the Elle website. YouTube content will also be released soon on the Elle YouTube channel.
