Lee Jong-suk Enjoys 8-Hour Talk Date and Cherry Blossom Outing

Actor Lee Jong-suk recently revealed that he enjoyed an 8-hour talk date.

A video titled 'While at the Salon, While the Cherry Blossoms Bloom, Lee Jong-suk's While I'm Out' was recently uploaded to Lee Jong-suk's YouTube channel.

In the video, Lee Jong-suk filmed himself getting a haircut at a salon, humorously sharing, "I didn't even film my haircut when I went to the military, but now that I have a content team, they said we should make content while I'm out."

Lee Jong-suk mentioned meeting his salon buddy Wi Ha-jun recently, saying, "We talked for 8 hours about what it means to age gracefully." He added, "Next time, I should film a talk with Ha-jun as content," showcasing their friendship.

After completing his 'Spring Youth' hairstyle, Lee Jong-suk spontaneously decided to go see the cherry blossoms, saying, "Since I'm out, let's go see the cherry blossoms." He reminisced, "There was a cherry blossom kiss scene in the drama 'While You Were Sleeping,' and I thought I'd like to visit that place."

Upon arriving at the cherry blossom path without a specific destination, Lee Jong-suk admired the scenery, exclaiming, "Wow, it's really beautiful." However, his admiration was short-lived as the content team focused on filming reels, leading to repeated takes. Lee Jong-suk candidly admitted, "I feel a bit disillusioned. As an introvert, this isn't easy for me."

While walking along the cherry blossom path, Lee Jong-suk reflected, "People often say 'Spring will come.' I used to wonder why spring is considered special. Being born in the fall, I could feel a bit left out by fall and summer. But now I understand why spring is celebrated."

Leaving a memorable quote, "What is a friend, a youth like a flower," Lee Jong-suk enjoyed a balance game while eating delivery sundae soup at a staff member's house.

When asked, "A movie with 10 million viewers vs. 1 million YouTube subscribers," he jokingly said, "There's no comparison. 1 million subscribers," but then corrected himself, "Of course, a movie with 10 million viewers."

When asked, "Hearing you're handsome for life vs. hearing you're a good actor," Lee Jong-suk replied, "Of course, I prefer being told I'm a good actor," but realizing it was a variety show, he humorously corrected, "Being told I'm handsome? I'll be handsome."

Humming 'Cherry Blossom Ending,' Lee Jong-suk gazed at the moon and wished, "I hope everyone is happy," drawing attention.

Meanwhile, actor Lee Jong-suk publicly acknowledged his relationship with singer and actress IU in 2022.
