Lee JunYoung is, as we've stated in the title of this article, the blueprint of what a successful idol actor is. He is talented in more than one regard and a fan-favorite of many. Let's get to know our boy crush!
If you're new to Lee JunYoung, here is some basic information about him. He was born on January 22, 1997, and has had a passion for the arts from a young age. He dreamed of becoming a dancer since his elementary school days.
Many may know Lee JunYoung as an actor but he actually started out as an idol with an ever-growing spectrum of talent.
He did everything he could to achieve his dream and even started out his professional career as a backup dancer. He was a backup dancer for artists such as Ladies' Code. His passion for dancing is so deep that he once said that if he hadn't become a member of U-KISS he would still have been dancing hard.
Lee JunYoung debuted as a member of U-KISS in 2014 using the stage name 'Jun'. The group was quite successful (and still is now), especially in Japan. Lee JunYoung was famous in the group for being good at everything.
He went on to participate in the survival show "The Unit" in 2017, impressing many and helping them uncover the hidden gem that he is as an artist. He won fans and judges alike over with his charm and talents, earning himself the first place ranking and a debut spot in the final debut group UNB.
Thereafter, Lee JunYoung made his acting debut in a guest role in the 2017 drama "A Special Meal of the Weirdo 'Nara'". He was still using his stage name Jun in that drama, later switching to using his full name in his first leading role drama called "Avenger Social Club" (2017). After using both his stage name and full name for a while, he officially switched to only using his birth name in 2019.
Lee JunYoung also made his solo debut in 2019. This year proved to be yet another year where his talents flourished as he launched a solo career and had a busy acting schedule with musicals and dramas lined up.
As you can see, Lee JunYoung has had an illustrious career thanks to his multitude of talents. Let's take a look at all of his skills individually.
As a vocalist, Lee JunYoung has an alluring vocal tone. He has a low-pitched husky tone when rapping that effortlessly transforms into a crystal-clear voice when he sings.
Check out his song 'Curious About U' here.
When Lee JunYoung dances, his moves are so captivating that anyone in the vicinity would instantly stop what they're doing to give him the due attention that he deserves. His precision and strength are a pleasant sight to see among idols. You can feel the passion emitting from his body as he gives his all to the dancefloor. Don't even get us started on his facial expressions, sense of rhythm, and overall stage presence. There is not a single flaw to be found when it comes to watching Lee JunYoung perform. One of his performances is a treat to anyone who gets to watch it.
Check out this medley dance of his.
When it comes to acting, we'll let his impressive filmography speak for itself. Let's take a look at some of his most notable roles.
His role in "Class of Lies" (2019) as Yoo BeomJin wowed many as he showed what a grip he had on emotional acting. His emotions were portrayed in an authentic and believable way.
Contrary to the rave reviews that he gets for his acting in this drama, he admitted to being slightly dispirited after filming for the drama. He was dispirited by the dark nature of his character, but that only proves just how well he pulled the character off through immersion. This drama is still dubbed as one of his most dazzling roles.
His role in "Imitation" (2021) as Kwon Ryok was also well-received. He showed another side of himself as an actor by playing a jaded and ambitious idol. He made a bold and unforgettable impression.
He also shone in "Let Me Be Your Knight" (2021) as Yoon TaeIn, who was a character relatable to his career. He took guitar and piano lessons in preparation for the role, elevating himself as an artist/musician.
His role in "Love & Leashes" (2022) as Jung JiHoo showcased his duality to a tee. Lee JunYoung showed his fatally attractive side and his puppy-like side, effortlessly all at once, as well. No fan was safe as he stole their hearts without warning.
These are only a few of his dramas that you should watch. Be sure to check out the rest of the works in his filmography, too.
Through his acting, Lee JunYoung has earned himself numerous titles proclaimed by fans, such as 'the best idol actor', 'the man with endless talent', and more. He is also known for being well-immersed in whatever role he takes on, becoming the character that he portrays completely.
On top of his success as an artist and actor, in 2021, Lee JunYoung co-established his own agency called 'Jflex'.
This speaks to his character as a person, as well. He has always been determined to achieve his dreams and even despite his huge success, he still remains ambitious. He has consistently expressed his desire to develop as an actor. He has expressed that his ultimate goal is to become an actor who is pure and sincere like a child.
His personality already shows that sincerity as he is a holistically good person. He has even once helped the police catch a drunk driver, concerned about a dangerous situation escalating. This just shows how much consideration he has for others around him.
As for his visuals... Well, they need no introduction as he is renowned for his handsome looks and rugged charm. He has a bright appearance that swiftly transitions to sexy when the situation presents itself. For example, he is known for looking devilishly handsome in a suit, like a dreamy CEO.
