Lee Do-hyun maintained his loyalty before enlisting

Actor Lee Do-hyun maintains his loyalty to director Ha Byeong-hoon of the drama '18 Again'.

On the 24th, TVING's original 'Lee Jae, I'll Die Soon' released a still of Lee Do-hyun. 'Lee Jae, I'm Dying Soon' is a life-changing drama in which Choi Lee Jae (played by Seo In-guk), who is about to fall into hell, experiences death and life 12 times due to the judgment made by Death (played by Park So-dam).

In the play, Lee Do-hyun plays the role of Jang Geon-woo, one of the secret cast who is shrouded in mystery, and plays one of the 12 lives and deaths that Choi Lee-jae will experience. Lee Do-hyun previously worked with director Ha Byeong-hoon on ‘18 Again’. Not forgetting the relationship I made at this time, I chose ‘Lee Jae, I’ll Die Soon’ as my last film before enlisting and finished filming. Director Ha Byeong-hoon also said, “The Jang Geon-woo character was written with actor Lee Do-hyun in mind when I was working on the script,” raising even more curiosity about the synergy between Lee Do-hyun and director Ha Byeong-hoon.

Jang Geon-woo is a model who monopolizes people's attention with his handsome appearance. Any place he walks becomes a runway, and he always lives in the love and attention of women. Without any special talents or specific goals, he is living a smooth life, earning a lot of money with just his talent as a face.

In the released photos, Jang Geon-woo is showing an extraordinary presence regardless of time and place. Although he is surrounded by a group of female students and bombarded with gifts, his expression is indifferent, giving us an idea of how popular he was during his school days. The intellectual atmosphere of reading a book and the refreshing smile under the flower trees make the hearts of those who see it flutter.

We are also looking forward to the new transformation of Lee Do-hyun, who became the motif of Jang Geon-woo's character. With a face that combines melodrama, youth, and sharpness, he plans to show off his diverse charms in the huge worldview of ‘Jae Lee, I’ll Die Soon’.

The production team of 'Lee Jae, I'm Dying Soon' said, "We express our deep gratitude to actor Lee Do-hyun for willingly working with the work even when he was about to enlist. When viewers watch the drama, they will also wonder why the character Jang Geon-woo was written with actor Lee Do-hyun in mind. “I think you’ll find out right away. Please look forward to actor Lee Do-hyun’s performance.”

'Lee Jae, I'm Dying Soon' will be released on TVING on December 15th and will reach viewers in more than 240 countries around the world through Prime Video.
