Actor Lee Jung Jae has shared some exciting updates about his life.

On the 25th, a video titled "Has Kim Gotten More Handsome and Funny? EP.46 Lee Jung Jae" was posted on the YouTube channel 'TEO(테오)-Salon Drip 2.'

In the video, Lee Jung Jae talked about his recent activities, saying, "Honestly, I'm surprised too. At my age, work usually decreases and life becomes less busy, but I'm so busy now that I wonder if it's okay to be this busy."

Lee Jung Jae, who recently starred in the Disney+ series "Star Wars: The Acolyte," shared a surprising story.

He said, "I didn't expect to appear so much. I'm not fluent in English and I'm not comfortable acting in English, so I thought my role would be small. I didn't even know I would be playing a Jedi Master until I got the offer."

After gaining international fame through the Netflix series "Squid Game," Lee Jung Jae mentioned, "I went to New York to promote 'The Acolyte.' Even though I was wearing a mask and glasses, people recognized me. They recognized me while I was waiting for the traffic light at a crosswalk."

He also talked about his life before becoming an actor. When Jang Do-yeon asked about his roles in "Il Mare" and "The Young Man," she mentioned, "I heard you originally studied architecture, which makes those two works particularly special to you." Lee Jung Jae revealed, "I was preparing to get a job at an interior design company."

Jang Do-yeon remarked, "You played an architect in 'Il Mare,' so it seems like you met a character similar to yourself. 'The Young Man' is also about a man who wants to succeed as a star." She expressed her surprise.

Lee Jung Jae responded, "I think every work has a fateful element. My appearance in 'The Acolyte' is also fateful. In the past, if an Asian actor appeared as a Jedi, it might have been too soon for the audience to accept. Now, Korean culture is so popular in the Western world."

BTS's V is making his fans fall even more in love with him as he shares moments from his life just 40 days before his military discharge.

On April 30, V posted several new photos on his Instagram story, giving fans a sneak peek into his daily routine.

Among the photos was a beautiful shot of cherry blossoms, accompanied by the word "cherry blossom" as he expressed his longing for spring.

He followed up with more photos, sharing how much he wanted to enjoy the season with his fans.

To make the post even more special, V added background music from BTS member J-Hope's song Sweet Dreams and Design by the American punk band Gustav.

It turns out that Gustav was grateful for V introducing their music to the world and even received fan comments saying they discovered the band through him.

In another adorable photo, V posed with CF director Ray J. Yi (Lee Jun Yeob), with flowers in his hair. The director also shared the cute photo, adding the word "flower" to express how happy he was with the moment.

But it wasn’t all about flowers and beauty—V also gave fans a peek at his workout routine. He proudly showed off his toned arm muscles in a picture, though his face appeared a little thinner.

This is likely due to his diet, as he’s been working hard to maintain his figure ahead of his discharge. Before enlisting, V weighed 62 kg, and during his service, he reached 86 kg. Now, he’s lost 10 kg and is preparing for his return to the public eye.

Interestingly, V has been working out at the same place where singer Kim Jong Kook films his popular YouTube channel Jim Jong Kook, sparking fan excitement and hopes that V might make an appearance on the show after he’s discharged.

As soon as V shared his latest update, his name—"KIM TAEHYUNG"—shot to the top of real-time trending charts worldwide. Fans from all over the globe, including in the U.S., couldn’t get enough of the updates, proving once again the massive impact V has.

He is set to be discharged from the military on June 10, and fans are eagerly awaiting his return.
