Recently, the TV series "Squid Game" starring Lee Jung-jae and Park Hae-so became popular, which tells the story of hundreds of people trapped in life who participated in multiple life-and-death battle royale games for a prize of up to 45.6 billion won.
Lee Jeong-jae plays the role of the male protagonist Ki-hoon who lives an unable life after losing his job. What is surprising is that the real Lee Jeong-jae has also fallen into the predicament of life, how did he get out and counterattack?
Because he studied at Chongyi Elementary School, a famous private elementary school in South Korea, and the middle school is located in the famous rich district of Cheongdam-dong, many fans think that he is a rich man with a good background after Lee Jeong-jae's debut.
In fact, when Lee Jeong-jae was born, his family was really well-off. His maternal grandfather ran several distilleries, while his grandfather was a doctor.
However, as his grandfather abandoned medicine and politics, he failed several times to run for office, and Lee Jeong-jae's brother was an autistic person, so the family fell in the middle.
The family had to move out of their original residence and went to high school, because they did not have the money to pay the tuition in time, And Lee Jeong-jae was called to the podium and beaten by the teacher in front of the whole class.
After graduating from high school, Lee Jung-jae began to work around to help his family solve their livelihood problems.
Like his good friend Zheng Yusheng, Lee Jeong-jae, who works in a café, was also discovered by the scouts because of his handsome appearance and recommended him to participate in various audition activities.
Although the congenital conditions are good, Lee Jeong-jae has no idea of becoming an actor. Since he was a child, he liked art and hoped to become an architect, but even if he could not study professionally due to family conditions and other reasons, he still did not give up this dream.
In 1993, due to serendipity, Lee Jeong-jae starred in the TV series "Mr. Dinosaur", which quickly became popular.
Later, with "Hourglass Lover", he won a number of newcomer awards.
However, after becoming popular, Lee Jeong-jae did not take advantage of the chase, but in order to improve his acting skills, he entered the university to study acting, and later pursued a graduate degree.
Lee Jung-jae's acting career has not been smooth sailing. In 1999, the film "Li Zaishou's Rebellion" cooperated with the national beauty Shen Yinhe not only failed at the box office, but also had a bad reputation.
As Shen Yinhe's last work before the film, even after many years, Lee Jeong-jae still feels guilty.
The film "Typhoon" cooperated with Zhang Dongjian did not achieve the expected effect.
Lee Jeong-jae decided to settle down and polish his acting skills while broadening his own play path.

Speaking of Lin Shiling, as the eldest daughter of a spice group, she is also the ex-wife of Lee Jae-yong, the richest man in South Korea.
After the divorce, Lin Shiling returned to work in the family business and now serves as the vice president.
Although most of the family's property will be inherited by her own sister Lin Shimin, because of Lin Shiling's ability and courage, it is difficult to say who will die in the end.
This year, in addition to the TV series "Squid Game", Lee Jeong-jae also directed and starred in the movie "Hunt", which makes people look forward to it!
