 One tries not to betray one’s pleasure when looking at Lee Joon Gi on the cover of the March 2021 issue of The Star magazine. Like many of his stunning magazine covers, the wonderful image is forever etched in one’s mind. Lee’s soulful look as he leans against the adorable chestnut horse has an astounding effect on women. The tender, endearing and heartwarming image softens hearts and women lose all sense of reason; they just want to hug the image. The magazine records not just one but two beautiful moments
connecting the extraordinary human being and his new equine friends. One can
imagine the beat of hearts as they swell and pound against the chest.
  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aUFs6vlD7Mo Lee, accompanied by his own staff and the staff of The Star
magazine, had travelled to Jeju for the photoshoot. It was a 3-day
working-holiday in the autumn of 2020. Since he had not stepped on Jeju
island for 10 years, he was startled to see the vast changes and new
developments.
In one image, the stylish Lee, in his immaculate white jacket, white designer's t-shirt and navy-blue jeans,
poses in the lobby of a luxurious and famous resort whose floor is paved
with gleaming white marble. Two distinctive and unique gold-black
works-of-art by Jeju artists adorn the spacious lobby.

to him. Lee, who loves nature, probably fell in love with Jeju all over
again; his return to nature was a healing trip for his mind and body. As he showcases
his equestrian skills, one watches in wonderment at the superstar. Some
consider horses to be the most therapeutic of all animals. https://www.instagram.com/p/CHC1ksnF34K/
The self-appointed Tourism Ambassador happily enumerated a list of wonderful places for his global fans to visit; he really wants them to discover Jeju, a place steeped in history. The view of the hills, mountains, peaks, forests, beaches and
grasses must have been exhilarating for Lee. He visited Cheongsu Gotjawal
Forest, Yongnuni Oreum Volcanic Cone, Suwolbong Peak, Huree Park and some
beaches. Autumn flowers were in full bloom and he stopped to smell the roses.
The trip must have given him precious memories as he has vowed to return.
The autumn scene is awashed with the eulalia or silver grass
which sways in rhythm with the wind. His monochrome beige coat, whose colour almost
resembles the swaying lush grass, is a stark contrast to his purple-orange
striped shirt. Lee makes a stunning picture with his eyes closed and his left
hand held high to salute the soft caress of the gentle breeze.
Another breathtaking
picture shows Lee clothed in black and white in Huree Natural Park, a place
to appreciate nature. He stands in the pathway flanked by two white picket
fences which separate him from a sea of pink muhly grass.
A series of pictures shows him basking in the morning sun. He
is clothed in blue, white and black, his favourite colours.    An air of mystery enters into his future plans. It’s fascinating that he plans to make trips by himself, to see more of the world. Interesting experiences await on the horizon. Life has to encompass more than showbusiness; it also involves filling one’s soul with more beauty, love, joy, adventure, et cetera, and overseas trips might just do the trick.
 https://www.instagram.com/p/CK3LQ04MVys/ With the quantum of changes in showbusiness, it is not easy for
stars to survive the brutal reality of the business. But, the dynamic frontrunner
has sustained a successful career for nearly twenty years despite facing prejudices
and various difficulties. Unlike many entitled younger stars, Lee has
maintained a positive and focussed attitude. Honing his diverse talents has also
paid dividends in a rapidly changing world.  Lee's recent work in the 2020 masterpiece, Flower of Evil,
has received enthusiastic reviews and critical acclaim around the world. The
audience have been transported to Do Hyun Soo’s world and they have been
moved by Lee’s sterling performance. The awesome team, comprising the
director, the scriptwriter and the cast, has created such a unique
suspense-melodrama that the global media and audience are still talking and
writing about it. 
Being confined to the home may not be a bad thing. It’s
interesting to note that that the pandemic has provided Lee with the valuable
time to polish up his English. He not only watches old and new movies to
improve himself but also cooks and does workouts at home. Once the pandemic
situation improves, Lee hopes to meet up with his beloved global fans and
broaden his life experiences.
