Perspective
Lee made his debut on October 15, 1996,[1] while he was still in high school, with the single "Why the Heaven". He had not been able to release a solo album since his 4 album released in February 2001. Instead of performing on stage as a solo singer, he and Kangta formed a project group called the "S" with their close singer friend, Shin Hye-sung.
In May 2004, Lee released a new album as a solo vocalist.[2] The title song of the new album was "Trinity", a ballad sung with a shouting-like singing style. Female vocalist Lee Soo-young and Shin Hye-sung,[2] a member of Shinhwa, participated in the new album by Lee.
He also acted in the movie, Lovely Rivals and Wet Dreams 2. His first major role was as Kim Jaewon's rival for Eugene's affections in Wonderful Life. He then starred in Hello! Miss and New Heart. He also starred in KBS daily drama You Are My Destiny opposite of Girls' Generation member, Im Yoona.
In March 2011, Lee signed with Japanese label EMI Music Japan. Lee performed as male lead Daniel, rotating with Um Ki-joon, Ahn Jae-wook, Song Seung-hyun of FT Island and Lee Sungmin of Super Junior in the musical Jack the Ripper from July 5 to August 14, 2011, at Chungmu Arts Hall.[3]
In September 2013, it was announced that Lee had been cast as Fiyero Tigelaar in the Korean production of the musical Wicked.[4]
Personal life
In April 2021, Lee announced on his Instagram that he would marry his non-celebrity girlfriend. The wedding was intended to be held in October 2021,[5] but had to be postponed to November 2021 due to COVID-19. The wedding took place on November 8, 2021.[6]
On February 16, 2024, it was announced that Lee's wife was pregnant.[7] On July 17, 2024, Lee's wife gave birth to a daughter.[8]
