For once having a pretty normal role, Lee Soo Hyuk talked about his character Yoo Jin Woo.

On June 11, Lee Soo Hyuk attended the press conference for tvN′s High Schooler King of Life held at the Imperial Hotel in Gangnam, saying, "I wonder if my image will change just a bit with this character."
"My personality isn′t really like what′s been seen, but it′s closer to an image of a little boy. With this character, I was most comfortable and I enjoyed it because I was able to think more and act," said Lee Soo Hyuk. "I′m not at the level yet to create my own character though."

"I really wanted to play a role that was human like, but I was also a ghost or a murderer," explained Lee Soo Hyuk on his past roles. "But with this project, I think I will be able to show more natural sides to me."

Yoo Jae Won PD also added, "Soo Hyuk comes out surprisingly adorable. With smiley eyes too," and "If there′s a surprise twist in this drama, that would be it."

tvNs′ High Schooler King of Life is about a 18-year old teen who much lead a double life of a student and a company head.

The first episode begins on June 16.



Concerning his model-turned-actor friends′ success, Lee Soo Hyuk revealed that he′s happy.

On June 11, Lee Soo Hyuk attended the press conference for tvN′s High Schooler King of Life at the Imperial Hotel in Gangnam.

He shared, "Kim Young Kwang and I read some of the replies. They said that there are two submarines carrying nuclear bombs in the modeling world, and that was me and Young Kwang."

"We carry nukes, but are always submerged. A lot of people say, ′You′re rivals. Don′t you feel a sense of competition?′ but it′s actually fun for us," said Lee Soo Hyuk. "We share about our casting offers and help each other find the acting points. There′s a lot to learn from Kim Woo Bin and Sung Jun, and we′re all doing well. We help each other. We have a good relationship."

"Each of us are different, so the order of when we receive the scripts are also different. Sometimes scripts that went to Kim Woo Bin come my way, and sometimes scripts I had go to Kim Woo Bin. It′s fun seeing things like that," said Lee Soo Hyuk.

"For us, we′re just happy to be receiving attention. So since I′m carrying nukes, I′ll continue to work hard."

High Schooler King of Life is about a teenager who lives a double life as a student and a high positioned office worker. The drama was written by Yang Hee SEung and Cho Sung Hee, who have created hit sitcoms such as Soon Poon Gynecology, Three Men, Three Women, and the High Kick series.
