Lee Jung Jae's Suyangdaegun portrayal in 'The Face Reader' is being re-examined

Actor Lee Jung Jae's portrayal of Grand Prince Suyang in the film 'The Face Reader' is once again a hot topic. The iconic entrance scene, accompanied by the line 'Suyangdaegun is coming!', is considered one of the top three entrance scenes in Korean cinema, and its behind-the-scenes story was recently revealed on the 100th episode special of 'Pinggyego' on the YouTube channel 'TteunTteun', drawing significant attention.

During the 'Pinggyego' broadcast, actor Yoon Kyung Ho, who appeared alongside Kim Nam Gil and Joo Ji Hoon, revealed that he was the actual voice behind the 'Suyangdaegun is coming!' line. This line was not originally in the script but was a spontaneous suggestion from director Han Jae Rim, with Yoon Kyung Ho's voice ultimately chosen, creating a memorable scene in film history. Yoon Kyung Ho also shared anecdotes from filming with Lee Jung Jae, conveying the atmosphere on set.

Bloggers note that Lee Jung Jae's Suyangdaegun performance is receiving even more attention in light of his global activities, including his Hollywood debut and Emmy Award win after 'Squid Game'. A past fan event where Lee Jung Jae appeared in Myeongdong dressed as Suyangdaegun to fulfill a viewership rating pledge is also being recalled, demonstrating why his acting skills and fan service continue to be beloved.
