Ok, my second oppa, I have to be here. 😛 

 

Nothing new but an interesting read for those who wish to know him a bit better:

 

K-Drama Star Lee Jong Suk Suffers From Scopophobia, Considers it His Worst Enemy

https://www.ibtimes.sg/k-drama-star-lee-jong-suk-suffers-scopophobia-considers-it-his-worst-enemy-46839

Lee Jong Suk has fear of attention. Here is why the actor is always seen wiping off his sweat in public, quite often

 

 

 

Can't wait for him to come back from military. I am starting to miss him (and I bet I will go crazy when he comes back, aaalmost the way I did with KSH *sigh*).

[stroppyse]

Only a couple of more months before Lee Jong Suk is back from his mandatory military service! However, since he wasn't deemed fit for active service, he's been working as a public service worker. I wonder if he'll have the choco abs that guys returning from the military have? Then again, LJS was pretty shy about stripping off anyway, so not sure we would get a glimpse of them even if he does have them when he is back.

 

Anyway, his agency must be getting offers already for projects for him as soon as he's back. I wonder if he's even started considering anything yet, or if he's just focused on finishing off his service well. Haven't heard he's considering anything as yet.

 

While we wait, posting a video of his kissing scene with Han Hyo Joo in "W" here, because it was seriously one of the hottest kissing scenes in a drama. Also, I remember translating the BTS of that scene, and both HHJ and LJS seemed affected by the kiss as well even when the cameras stopped rolling.

 

 

What are some favorites from other fans of LJS? Please share as we wait out the final months before he returns!

[mademoiselle]

I just read that Jong Suk will make his return offered to a cameo appearance for The Witch 2.

Yay! Now he just needs to pick a good project and return to our screens!

 

Thanks for the post and the tag @mademoiselle! He looks good, and looks as if he may have put on a few pounds. Still wondering whether he's developed those military abs.

I read that he did public service instead after tested being unfit to serve the usual military so unlikely to have military abs. Can you confirm, please?

 

Edit: I've checked Wikipedia → it says "Lee began his mandatory military service on March 8, 2019. Lee was deemed unfit to enlist as an active duty soldier as a result of going through a car accident when he was 16 and tore his anterior cruciate ligament. Therefore, he is confirmed to work as a public service officer. Lee is expected to be discharged on December 31, 2020."

 

He'll cameo in the movie The Witch 2. But movie will take forever for us to see so hopefully he decides on a drama soon. I can't wait to see him back on the small screen.

@mademoiselle, I know that he worked as a public service worker rather than as an active soldier. However, some of those public service roles can also be labor intensive. In the photos of him being back, he's definitely filled out some. LJS actually had abs before which he's flashed, e.g. in his movie 'No Breathing', but wondered if he's going to come back being more manly like so many of his peers. Maybe not, since he was still basically a civilian despite the public service. We'll see.

I remember those time. He toned up his body just for No Breathing. In the latter episodes of IHYV, all of a sudden his arms became more toned, hehe. I still kept those pics. I remember him expressing disliking body-building, curious to see whether he has changed his mind.

Latest interview for Esquire

I need this boy to get a haircut...

He's probably just happy that he is able to grow his hair out rather than wearing a mandated short haircut. LOL

 

Also, this popped up on my YT suggestions.

 

It's from a Korean variety program called The Return of Superman and is a show that explores fathers taking care of their children and the relationships that the fathers build with them. Anyway, Yoon Sang Hun is one of the fathers this season with his 3 children. The children dress up in their hanboks for Lunar New Year and bow to their father. YSH then video calls Uncle Jong Suk and has his children bow to him. LJS rather shyly says that it's the first time he's received such greetings as a samchon before.  Given how young LJS is, that's probably very true.

 

The clip goes into the background of how YSH and LJS became friendly. They met while filming the drama Secret Garden where LJS plays a prodigy rebel music producer who also has a crush on YSH's Oska. LJS's scenes were brief but very memorable. Three years later, they then filmed the drama I Can Hear Your Voice with Lee Bo Young where YSH and LJS play rivals for LBY's affections, though the bromance is strong for the two men.

 

Now, YSH is happy that LJS is back from his compulsory service and teasing him a little as well as saying that they'll have to meet in person this year. LSJ is rather sweet and adorable as well, and has some sweet words for YSH's children. It's hilarious that YSH's young son actually hangs up the call on LJS once he's done talking to him, though.

 

Anyway thought I would share this to the thread because of the sweetness overload. No subtitles, and I don't have time right now to write up a translation, but it's still a cute clip.

I'm actually kind of falling for LJS with his long hair. @Tofu posted this on Discord, but I thought it needed to be preserved at his shrine.

 

 

 

 

@Tofu, post the other photos you've shown me here!

[Tofu]

Sorry, @stroppyse! This is long overdue, but is it really? I think you can always look at photos of Lee Jong Suk any time.

Yes, I can look at pics of LJS all day long. He looks just the same as when he went to mandatory public service, except for the long hair. But, I think he's rocking the long hair, looking rather romantic and louche.

[stroppyse]

Think his new drama 'Big Mouth' is supposed to air next month in July.

 

 

Anyway, it looks as if he's cut off the long hair that he had for the movie 'The Witch'. Looking forward to seeing him on the screen again.
