"Lee Dong Wook will hold a fan meeting on November 2nd at Kyung Hee University's Peace Hall to commemorate his 25th anniversary since debut," a representative from his agency said, according to a report from 'Allkpop.'
The video discusses that the 'The Beauty Inside' actor is missing in action for the time being. Jo Jung Sik ended the video with a surprising message about being reunited with Lee Dong Wook at the fan meeting.
Lee Dong Wook rose to fame in the 1999 coming-of-age series 'School.' He is best known for his roles in the 2015 fantasy film 'The Beauty Inside,' the 2016 fantasy 'Guardian: The Lonely and Great God,' and the 2020 fantasy series 'Tale of the Nine Tailed.'
Lee Dong Wook opened up about his mindset as an actor during a 2020 interview with 'W Korea.'
"In terms of narcissism, I also agree that it's required for this job. Since we're in a situation where we're always being selected or evaluated, it would be hard to endure if you didn't think to yourself, 'I'm good at this; there's something that I do better than other people,'" he said, according to a report from 'Soompi.'
He added, "If that becomes excessive, then, well, it becomes a personal problem. It's not possible to please everyone in this job. It's great to just please fifty out of a hundred people, but it's easy to feel hurt because of the fifty people who hate me or aren't interested in me. That's why there's a need to repeat to yourself, 'I'm a good person.'"
