Lee Jong Suk - South Korean actor, model.

Lee Jong Suk is the first child in the family. Two years after Lee's birth, his younger brother was born, and four years later his sister was born. Lee Jong Suk has been a rather shy and very timid boy since childhood.

Sister and brother were always much more active than Lee Jong Suk. Apparently, the father of the family did not like this very much, which is why he was very strict with his eldest son. The fear of his father carried over into adulthood. Lee Jong Suk still cannot fully relax when his father is in the living room. Although the actor notes that now they have much less conflict with their father.

The actor notes that it has always been difficult for him to find true friends and open up to people. But, if he still finds people to whom he can calmly open up, then he values ​​\u200b\u200bits very much and really appreciates this friendship.

As a child, Lee Jong Suk was fond of drawing, played Korean chess (baduk). A special role in his life was given to playing the piano. He always liked this activity very much, but soon the game had to be abandoned. Lee Jong Suk began attending taekwondo classes. Training did not bring the future actor the slightest pleasure, but his father, who could not be argued, insisted on visiting the section. As a result, taekwondo classes were marked by the receipt of a black belt in taekwondo.

When Lee Jong Suk was in high school, he decided to take part in one of the selections for a TV station. It was then that he began work as an acting actor for SBS. The actor took place in the modeling field when he represented the men's clothing line. Lee Jong Suk has become the youngest member of the Seoul Collection clothing line.

The actor moved from Yongin to Seoul to pursue higher education there. Here he attended high school. Lee Jong Suk happened to get a better education than his brother, who was forced to study right at home. At the same time, Lee Jong Suk was already attending a performing arts school.

The decision that he wants to become an actor came to Lee Jong Suk after watching the drama Full House. Even then, Rhine became his idol, whom he sought to imitate in everything. To make a final decision about the choice of his future profession was prompted by watching the film "Temptation of the Wolves". However, despite the desire to become an actor, Lee Jong Suk initially got into the modeling business.

Lee Jong Suk was first seen as an actor in 2010 in the drama Charming Attorney. The acting did not leave the audience indifferent. He charmed them not only with his excellent acting work, but also with his high growth, which is in harmony with his handsome appearance.

The next sensation and a significant step in his acting career was participation in the drama "Secret Garden". There, the actor also showed himself only from the best side.

Also, one cannot fail to mention the film "Hot Young Blood". In this film, Lee Jong Suk played one of the main roles. For his work, the actor was awarded several awards.

Despite the huge number of fans, Lee Jong Suk is quite self-critical about his roles. Sometimes he does not like his own game and then he openly declares this. So, for example, it was after the release of the sitcom “Unstoppable Kick 3”.

Biography

South Korean actor and model Lee Jong Suk was born on September 14, 1989 in Yongin, Gyeonggi Province. He is the eldest child in the family: his brother is two years younger than him, and his sister is four years younger. As children, they often arranged comic fights, slapping each other on the head. And although Jung Suk is the oldest of the children, he is also the most quiet and timid. At school, he was very modest and shy, so much so that he was even afraid to raise his hand in class to answer a teacher's question. Perhaps, in order to give Jung Suk self-confidence and make his character tougher, his parents enrolled him in the taekwondo section. On the way to one of his classes, Jung Suk got into a car accident, as a result of which he tore his cruciate ligaments. He was happy about this injury, thinking that he would no longer have to practice taekwondo, however, as soon as he was released from the hospital, his father told him to continue his classes. His father was always strict with him, so Jong Suk was very afraid of him from childhood. Even now that he is older, he cannot look up when he is in the same room as his father. But despite all the strictness with which Jong Suk was brought up, he still remained the same soft, modest and timid.

In 2005, Lee Jong Suk began his career as a model, walking in the 2005-2006 F/W Seoul Collection by designer Lee Jin Yun and 2005 Guangzhou Designer's Biennale by designer Jang Kwang Hyo. Jung Suk became the youngest model in South Korea to participate in shows of this magnitude. In the same year, he had a small role in the short film "Sympathy" and took part in the television show "The Truth Game" (262 ep.). We can say that Jong Suk started quite easily and confidently. In addition, he won his first "Netizen's Voting Star of New Advertising Models" award at the 2005 South Korean Super Star Selection Competition just after stepping into stardom. In 2006, he won the SMART Model Contest, earning the title of "Most Photogenic".

For the next few years, Jong Suk continued to actively participate in fashion shows. And although he was well in demand as a model, his parents were unhappy and disappointed with him. Seeing no results from his work (because Jong Suk was not shown on television), they began to insist that he join the army. The pressure from his family added to his own worries, as he signed a contract with an actor promotion company in the 3 years after filming "Sympathy" without getting a single role. All this led to Jong Suk becoming depressed. He did not meet with friends and did not answer their calls, spending everything at home free time. After 2 years of unsuccessful castings and rejections, already almost desperate, in 2010 he was still able to get minor roles in the series "Charming Prosecutor" and "Secret Garden", as well as make his debut on the big screen in the film "Ghost", also in a minor role. .

The greatest influence on the popularity of Jung Suk was the series "Secret Garden", where he played the role of a talented gay musician Han Tae Sung. This series not only opened the doors to the world of fame for Jong Suk, but also helped his family see Jong Suk from a new perspective: as a talented actor. His father also watched the series, and when he couldn’t watch the next episode, he called Jung Suk and asked if he had a lot of air time in this series and if he did well in it. Dad wasn't the only fan of Jung Suk. After the release of "The Secret Garden", he began to be recognized on the street, and this despite the fact that throughout the entire series, the character of Jung Suk, in total, received about 30 minutes of airtime. Such long-awaited fame, albeit small, cost him incredible efforts: filming and press conferences took a lot of time. Lee Jong Suk's schedule has sharply become denser than usual, so he practically did not get enough sleep. At the same time, he didn't want to finish the work, as he became very attached to all the filming staff, so he even felt disappointed when the filming ended.

In February 2011, Jong Suk made a guest appearance on 'Strong Heart' (ep 63-64), and in September he returned to the small screen as Ahn Jong Suk in the sitcom Kick Out 3. When Lee Jong Suk first read the script, for about half an hour he just laughed and could not calm down. The positive mood of Jong Suk, as well as the rest of the cast, carried over to the set, resulting in the series being very "warm", homely and realistic. The audience received it well, and for all 123 episodes of "Unstoppable Kick 3" kept the ratings in the region of 10%.

2012 was a real breakthrough for Jong Suk: supporting roles in 2 feature films - "Soar into the Sky" and "As One", the main role in the KBS film "When I Was Fine" and the main role in the TV series "School 2013", where he played a high school student named Ko Nam Soon. Despite the expected stereotype from a series of this genre, "School 2013" was able to attract and retain the interest of the audience. The history is not best school, in which someone goes for knowledge, someone for fights, and someone even sleep, gradually reveals the hearts of its heroes. Among them is the class president-appointed Ko Nam Soon, a guy who is indifferent to everything. This is how the viewer sees him at first. However, behind the mask of indifference lies a deep emotional experience that devours Nam Soon from the inside. During filming, Jong Suk got so used to the image of his character that he literally skipped some scenes through himself. So, on the set of episode 12, in the episode where Nam Soon is crying, the actor was actually crying. Such strong dedication and good acting earned Jung Suk the Best New Actor award at the 2012 KBS Drama Awards. In addition to acting in movies and TV shows, in 2012, Jung Suk delighted his fans by becoming the MC of SBS's 'The Music Trend' and guest appearances on the variety shows 'Happy Together' (245, 260 eps) and 'Strong Heart' (131 -132 ep.).

In 2013, Jong Suk appeared in one of the episodes of the soap opera "Potato star that looks like a sweet potato 2013QR3" and starred in the TV series "I'll Hear You", in which he played the main role - a young man named Park Soo Ha, who can read other people's minds . And although the series started very average, already from the second series it began to confidently gain ratings and soon the audience fell in love with it so much that it was decided to extend it for another 2 series. The success of the series also affected the success of Lee Jong Suk. He received 9 awards for his role as Park Soo Ha in 2013: at the 6th Korea Drama Awards and 2nd APAN Star Awards - "Excellence Award, Actor" and "Best Couple Award" (together with Lee Bo Young), at the 6th Style Icon Award Awards - "The 21st Century Gentleman", at the 21st Korean Culture and Entertainment Awards - "Best Actor" and "Hallyu Grand Award", at the 2013 SBS Drama Awards - "Excellence Award, Actor in a Miniseries" and "Top 10 Stars" ".

In September 2013, the film "Face Reader" was released in cinemas in South Korea, in which Jong Suk played minor role. In October of the same year, the film "No Breath" was released on the big screens, where Jong Suk played one of the main roles. His character is a young, ambitious and determined swimmer named Woo San. He was number 1 until one day he was disqualified. And now he must start from the very beginning to regain the title of champion. Everything is complicated by the fact that his longtime and main rival, Won Il, has returned to swimming. The rivalry between them continues outside the pool as they both fall in love with the same girl. Fighting for love, friendship and victory, young people go through a rite of passage, which is the main idea of ​​the film. No Breathing grossed over $2.5 million at the box office.

In January 2014, Lee Jong Suk returned to the big screen again with the lead role in the movie Hot Blooded Youth, which grossed over $10 million at the box office. In May of the same year, SBS aired Doctor Stranger with Jung Suk playing the lead role. His character, the genius doctor Park Hoon, grew up in North Korea. Together with his high school crush Song Jae Hee, he wants to return to South Korea, but loses contact with her and arrives there alone. He gets a job at a local hospital, where he meets Dr. Han Seung Hee, who looks exactly like his lover. The further development of the plot was observed not only by Korean viewers: in China, the series became very popular and gained more than 400 million views. Later "Doctor Stranger" also aired in Japan and Myanmar. The role of Park Hoon earned Lee Jong Suk the SBS Special Award at the 2014 SBS Drama Awards.

Despite the fact that Lee Jong Suk wanted to take a break after wrapping up Doctor Stranger, in September 2014 it was revealed that he had been cast as the male lead in Pinocchio. As the actor himself admitted, he was afraid to take on the role, as he was physically and mentally exhausted. But after meeting and talking with "Pinocchio" writer/director Park Hye Ryong and Jo Soo Won, he decided to agree to filming. "Pinocchio" is a story about justice and truth, the truth that society does not really need, or the truth that it should not know. And this story was able to touch the hearts of viewers and film critics, as well as bring Jung Suk 6 wins: at the 27th Grimae Awards (2014) and Soompi Awards (2015) in the Best Actor nomination, at the 2014 SBS Drama Awards - SBS Special Award ”, “Top 10 Stars”, “Best Couple Award” (with Park Shin Hye), at the 51st Baeksang Arts Awards (2015) - “Most Popular Actor (TV)”. 2015 brought Jung Suk another award - at the Hahn Awards in the Most Outstanding Representative - Actor category.
