About Lee Jong Suk
Lee Jong Suk was born in Yongin City, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea on September 14, 1989. He began modeling at the Seoul Collection walk away during Seoul Fashion Week in 2005 at the early age of 15, becoming the youngest male model to ever debut on a walkway. And after taking his first steps in the world of modeling, he got great acceptance by different designers who began to consider him as their muse, that was what helped him considerably to have an extensive career in the world of modeling, walking the fashion runways for some of the biggest fashion shows. Since then, he has participated in a series of fashion shows organized by many of the best brands in Korea. During those years he worked as a model and was praised by many as "a model who had the image of a child and an adult man coexisting within him".

He began to have serious doubts about continuing as a model and decided to try something new; he was preparing for his debut as a member of a musical group. According to him, he was arranged as a member of the group for three months and had signed with the agency, since initially he was told that they would help him act, but the agency did not keep its promise helping his debut as an actor. Later he decided to study in Konkuk University and obtained a Professional Motion Pictures Art major, he also before debuting as an actor took part in a selection for actors at SBS TV station when he was in middle school, where he received high marks and quickly caught the attention of viewers.
