LEE JOON GI
THE MULTI-TALENTED GLOBAL SUPERSTAR
 
Ever since Lee Joon Gi
starred in The King and the Clown, many people have sat up and taken notice
of the dramas and movies of the extraordinary star. When Milla Jovovich
announced that Lee had a cameo role in her sixth Resident Evil movie, it had made
his fans deliriously happy as his talents and hard work were finally recognised
and rewarded.
The South Korean superstar’s
fans know that he would contribute meaningfully to the North American movie,
and Lee has done far more than expected.
Lee Joon Gi’s action scene
with Milla Jovovich in the blockbuster movie, Resident Evil:
The Final Chapter is totally amazing. It shows his exceptional martial arts
prowess, and his amazing skills have earned him lavish praise from Milla
Jovovich and Paul Anderson, the director of the movie. Lee, like the other great Asian martial arts action stars, does his own stunt work in all his movies and dramas. His Asian
fans watch the movie because of him and just can't wait for him to appear
in the scenes. But it is disappointing that he only gets 5-10 minutes of screen time.
The most thought-provoking scenes in the Resident Evil movie focus on man-vs-machine. In two or three scenes, Commander Lee is
chained to a moving armoured vehicle and is being dragged along the ground. He scrambles after
the monstrous machine over rugged terrain to escape the swarms of zombies. Lee Joon Gi's fans must have been horrified. Despite their intitial misgivings, they have to agree that those jaw-dropping scenes serve to show his enduring strength and amazing overall
athleticism.
What is most interesting about
Asian showbusiness is that no other formidable Asian martial arts action star can match Lee
Joon Gi’s gorgeous and sexy looks, his amazing acting skills and his enviable
list of other talents.
Effeminate Court Jester. Rebellious High School Student. Scion of a Hotel Owner. Joseon Robin Hood. Nobleman cum Magistrate. National Intelligence Service Agent. Small-time Gangster cum Part-time Father. Masculine Joseon Gunman and Sword fighter. Sexy Vampire. Romantic Cancer-Stricken Lover. Paranoid Goryeo King. He has played them all. Lee is also the God of historical fiction dramas. And Lee can now add 'Resident Evil's Most Gorgeous and Amazing Villian' to the list. An unforgettable bad boy from the East.    For those in the west who are not familiar with eastern culture, it may come as a big surprise that Lee is also a popstar and that he is huge in Asia: he can sing very well and can dance better than all the so-called popstars.   
Many people would not have known that Lee Joon Gi was once a famous
catwalk model but he now concentrates on other genres of modelling. He, currently a very popular editorial fashion model, has graced the
covers and editorial spreads of innumerable Korean, Chinese and Japanese
magazines since his overnight fame as Gong-gil in his blockbuster movie in 2005. Being the spokesperson for
many international brands has also proven to be lucrative for Lee. And recently, he has
become the new face of Lotte Duty Free.
The South Korean golden
boy, Lee Joon Gi, is an uncommon actor. The multi-talented movie and drama actor cum martial arts action hero is phenomenally popular in
East Asia - Mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, and also,
South-east Asia.
It is unsurprising that he
also has legions of loyal fans around the globe – North and South America,
Australia, the UK and other parts Europe including Eastern Europe and the
Middle East.

LEE JOON GI
INITIALLY REJECTED
PAUL ANDERSON’S OFFER
 
Namoo Actors, Lee Joon Gi’s agency, had revealed
that Lee Joon Gi initially rejected Paul Anderson’s offer to star in his
Resident Evil movie as he lacked the experience of being in a Hollywood movie.
But in the end, it took a bit of persuasion and influence on Paul’s part
before Lee agreed to do it.
Unlike many Asian actors, Lee did not have
to go through any arduous or difficult auditions. After the shooting and the broadcast of his
vampire drama, The Scholar Who Walks The Night, had ended, he immediately
flew to South Africa to join the rest of the movie cast. A historic moment. That
was in 2015. It is one experience that Lee Joon Gi would never regret nor
forget.
An interesting piece of news that has gone
the rounds was that Paul Anderson had watched Lee Joon Gi’s astonishing and
charismatic martial arts action scene on a certain YouTube video and he was immediately
convinced that Lee Joon Gi was ‘The One’ who was Milla’s match. He
corresponded with Lee’s agency and made the historic offer.
What did Milla Jovovich have to say about
Lee Joon Gi? She was immensely impressed. ‘It was like being introduced to a
whole new level of stunt acting.’
It meant that Lee has brought something new
and awesome to the super fight scene in the movie. The scene is, to Lee Joon
Gi’s fans, the most anticipated fight scene in the movie.
