==Career==
Lee began his acting career as a university student, and in the 1950s and '60s he was known, along with other veteran actors like [[Yeo Woon-kay]], as the original stars of ''daehakgeuk'' or amateur student theatrical productions.<ref>{{cite web|last=Lee|first=Hyo-won|title=Actress Yeo Woon-gae, 69, Dies of Lung Cancer|url=http://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/news/nation/2009/05/121_45527.html|work=[[The Korea Times]]|accessdate=22 May 2009}}</ref> When he was in his thirties, the television came to Korea, and Lee has since built a prolific career in the small and big screen spanning nearly six decades. Notable [[Korean drama|television dramas]] include ''What is Love'' and ''Men of the Bath House''.<ref name="KMDb Korean">{{cite web|url=http://www.kmdb.or.kr/actor/mm_basic.asp?person_id=00004082|title=이순재|trans_title=Lee Soon-jae|work=[[Korean Movie Database]]|accessdate=2010-02-09|language=Korean}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|last=Park|first=Jin-hai|title=Culture minister hails elderly entertainers|url=http://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/news/culture/2013/05/386_135397.html|work=[[The Korea Times]]|accessdate=2013-07-04|date=9 May 2013}}</ref>

From 1992 to 1996, Lee served as a member of the 14th [[National Assembly of South Korea]].<ref>{{cite web|last=Yoon|first=Won-sup|title=''Politainers'' Speak Out Again in 2007 Election|url=http://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/news/opinon/2010/09/160_14541.html|work=[[The Korea Times]]|accessdate=2013-07-04|date=28 November 2007}}</ref> He remains active in his various advocacies, such as the Korea Broadcasting Actors Union.<ref>{{cite web|last=Kim|first=Bo-ra|title=KBS actors protest against non-payment|url=http://www.koreaherald.com/view.php?ud=20121121000725|work=[[The Korea Herald]]|accessdate=2013-07-04|date=21 November 2012}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|last1=Lee|first1=Jeong-yoon|last2=Kim|first2=Sung-mi|title=World Traditional Medicine EXPO to be held in Sancheong in 2013|url=http://www.koreaherald.com/view.php?ud=20120224001067|work=Korea IT Times|accessdate=2013-07-04|date=9 March 2012}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|last=Ji|first=Yong-jin|title=Organizing Committee Meeting for 5th DMZ Docs Held|url=http://www.koreanfilm.or.kr/jsp/news/news.jsp?mode=VIEW&seq=2512|work=Korean Film Council|accessdate=2013-07-04|date=29 March 2013}}</ref>

He is also a professor of Film Arts at [[Sejong University]], a [[professor emeritus]] of Performing Arts at [[Gachon University]], and a director and lecturer at the SG Academy.

===Recent works===
In 2009, Lee, by then a distinguished veteran actor, reached new heights of mainstream popularity when he starred in the [[sitcom]] ''[[High Kick!|Unstoppable High Kick!]]''. One particular scene became a huge hit among young audiences: when his stern grandfather character discovers [[porn]] while browsing through a family member's computer files, then embarrassingly gets caught watching. It went viral, giving rise to numerous parodies in which "Porn Soon-jae" is involved in R-rated hijinks. Lee was surprised that even his granddaughter asked for his autograph for her friends, adding, "Even during my best years, my daughter never asked me for that." Despite having no superstars in the cast, the sitcom received high ratings, which Lee attributed to successfully building comic tension. He said, "For an actor to be funny, he's got to play things straight. [...] It's about finding the comedy in something serious."<ref name="pretv" />

Later that year, Lee returned to the big screen after 20 years in television, in [[Jang Jin]]'s comedy ''[[Good Morning President]]''. The movie tells the story of three fictional Korean presidents, and in the first segment, Lee played a well-respected elderly president nearing the end of his term who espouses frugality and charity, but then agonizes whether to take the money when he unexpectedly wins the lottery. Lee said, "I was impressed with how much times have changed; before it would have been impossible to parody the president. The film tries to show that heads of state are only human, just like you and me, which I think makes the movie distinctive, as well as fresh and fun for viewers."<ref>{{cite web|last=Lee|first=Hyo-won|title=Actor Jang Dong-kun Returns as President|url=http://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/news/art/2009/09/141_52271.html|accessdate=2013-07-04|work=[[The Korea Times]]|date=22 September 2009}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|last=Park|first=Sun-young|title=Korean stars take turns playing president|url=http://koreajoongangdaily.joins.com/news/article/article.aspx?aid=2910496|work=[[Korea JoongAng Daily]]|accessdate=2013-07-04|date=25 September 2009}}</ref>

In 2011, Lee, Yoon So-jung, Song Jae-ho and [[Kim Soo-mi]] starred in ''[[Late Blossom]]'', a tearjerker romance about two elderly couples, based on the popular [[webcomic|webtoon]] ''I Love You'' by [[Kang Full]]. Lee said the movie was a rare chance for him and other senior actors to play leading roles on the big screen. He added that Korea's senior citizen population had surpassed 5 million, and "not understanding their feelings would be a failure of television dramas, movies and even elections. Young people might be under the illusion that life is over after turning 60, but the heart doesn't change despite getting old."<ref>{{cite web|last=Kwon|first=Mee-yoo|title=Blossom portrays love in twilight years|url=http://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/news/art/2011/03/141_80850.html|work=[[The Korea Times]]|accessdate=2013-07-04|date=6 February 2011}}</ref> Initially difficult to finance due to [[ageism]], ''Late Blossom'' had a small shooting and marketing budget compared to most Korean mainstream films. But it became a [[sleeper hit]], recouping four times its cost in just a few weeks. Lee also won Best Actor under the international film category at the China [[Golden Rooster Awards|Golden Rooster]] and [[Hundred Flowers Awards|Hundred Flowers]] Film Festival, becoming its oldest recipient. Lee said, "I never thought I'd win. What a surprise. It feels great to know that ''Late Blossom'' has been received well overseas. I thought it would be hard for an actor from television dramas to be awarded a prize at film awards, not to mention the unexpected pleasure of winning at a foreign film awards. I have received the best entertainer award and achievement award before, but receiving this makes me happier and more thrilled." It was his first best actor award in 34 years since the 1977 [[Baeksang Arts Awards]].<ref>{{cite web|last=Choi|first=Min-ji|title=Lee Soon Jae Wins Best Actor Award at Major Chinese Film Awards|url=http://mwave.interest.me/enewsworld/article/1254|accessdate=2013-07-04|work=enewsWorld|date=28 October 2011}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|last=Hong|first=Lucia|title=Lee Soon-jae wins best actor award at Chinese film fest|url=http://www.asiae.co.kr/news/view.htm?idxno=2011102810401935785|accessdate=2013-07-04|work=10Asia|date=28 October 2011}}</ref>

Lee returned to the stage in 2012 in ''Father'', a Korean adaptation of [[Arthur Miller]]'s play ''[[Death of a Salesman]]''. This was his third time to play the character [[Willy Loman]]. Lee said, "When I first played this role in 1978, some parts were rather incomprehensible. But now, as our society developed, we can finally fully understand what those lines mean. That is the beauty of working on masterpieces like Arthur Miller's. I feel a satisfaction and regret at the same time, for I have reached a new comprehension, and for the perspective that I have yet to discover."<ref>{{cite web|last=Lee|first=So-young|title=What ''Father'' Means to us|url=http://www.dgupost.com/news/articleView.html?idxno=1324|work=The [[Dongguk University|Dongguk]] Post|accessdate=2013-07-04|date=5 November 2012}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=An interview with Lee Soon Jae, currently headlining the play ''Father''|url=http://lsgfan.wordpress.com/2012/09/08/lee-soon-jae-talks-his-play-father-and-acting-shows-love-for-the-likes-of-kim-myung-min-lee-seung-gi-ha-ji-won/|work=LSGfan|accessdate=2013-07-04|date=6 September 2012}}</ref>

In 2013, cable channel [[TVN (South Korea)|tvN]] launched the reality/variety show ''Grandpas Over Flowers'' (the title [[parody|parodies]] the [[manga]] ''[[Boys Over Flowers]]'') directed by Na Young-seok (previously of ''[[1 Night 2 Days]]'').<ref>{{cite web|last=Lee|first=Sun-min|title=''1 Night, 2 Days'' producer returns|url=http://koreajoongangdaily.joins.com/news/article/article.aspx?aid=2970346|work=[[Korea JoongAng Daily]]|accessdate=2013-07-04|date=19 April 2013}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|last=Lee|first=Sun-min|title=New hiking reality show gets a name|url=http://koreajoongangdaily.joins.com/news/article/Article.aspx?aid=2972031|work=[[Korea JoongAng Daily]]|accessdate=2013-07-04|date=24 May 2013}}</ref> Defying a youth-centered entertainment industry, the show stars four veteran actors -- Lee, Shin Goo, Park Geun-hyung and [[Baek Il-seob]] -- as they go on a [[Backpacking (travel)|backpacking tour]] of [[Europe]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Senior actors lead TV show, defying youth-centered industry|url=http://www.koreaherald.com/view.php?ud=20130612001034|work=[[The Korea Herald]]|accessdate=2013-07-04|date=12 June 2013}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|last=Lee|first=Sun-min|title=Grandpa actors get own show|url=http://koreajoongangdaily.joins.com/news/article/article.aspx?aid=2973778|work=[[Korea JoongAng Daily]]|accessdate=2013-07-04|date=29 June 2013}}</ref>

Lee Soon-jae (born October 10, 1935) is a South Korean actor.

Early life

Lee was born in Hoeryong, North Hamgyeong, now part of North Korea.[1] When he was 4 years old, his family moved to Seoul where Lee's grandparents were living. Lee's grandfather ran a small real estate business, while his father produced and sold soaps. Lee was raised in the neighborhood of Ahyeon-dong, and graduated from Seoul High School and Seoul National University.[2][3]

Career

Lee began his acting career as a university student, and in the 1950s and '60s he was known, along with other veteran actors like Yeo Woon-kay, as the original stars of daehakgeuk or amateur student theatrical productions.[4] When he was in his thirties, the television came to Korea, and Lee has since built a prolific career in the small and big screen spanning nearly six decades. Notable television dramas include What is Love and Men of the Bath House.[5][6]

From 1992 to 1996, Lee served as a member of the 14th National Assembly of South Korea.[7] He remains active in his various advocacies, such as the Korea Broadcasting Actors Union.[8][9][10]

He is also a professor of Film Arts at Sejong University, a professor emeritus of Performing Arts at Gachon University, and a director and lecturer at the SG Academy.

Recent works

In 2009, Lee, by then a distinguished veteran actor, reached new heights of mainstream popularity when he starred in the sitcom Unstoppable High Kick!. One particular scene became a huge hit among young audiences: when his stern grandfather character discovers porn while browsing through a family member's computer files, then embarrassingly gets caught watching. It went viral, giving rise to numerous parodies in which "Porn Soon-jae" is involved in R-rated hijinks. Lee was surprised that even his granddaughter asked for his autograph for her friends, adding, "Even during my best years, my daughter never asked me for that." Despite having no superstars in the cast, the sitcom received high ratings, which Lee attributed to successfully building comic tension. He said, "For an actor to be funny, he's got to play things straight. [...] It's about finding the comedy in something serious."[1]

Later that year, Lee returned to the big screen after 20 years in television, in Jang Jin's comedy Good Morning President. The movie tells the story of three fictional Korean presidents, and in the first segment, Lee played a well-respected elderly president nearing the end of his term who espouses frugality and charity, but then agonizes whether to take the money when he unexpectedly wins the lottery. Lee said, "I was impressed with how much times have changed; before it would have been impossible to parody the president. The film tries to show that heads of state are only human, just like you and me, which I think makes the movie distinctive, as well as fresh and fun for viewers."[11][12]

In 2011, Lee, Yoon So-jung, Song Jae-ho and Kim Soo-mi starred in Late Blossom, a tearjerker romance about two elderly couples, based on the popular webtoon I Love You by Kang Full. Lee said the movie was a rare chance for him and other senior actors to play leading roles on the big screen. He added that Korea's senior citizen population had surpassed 5 million, and "not understanding their feelings would be a failure of television dramas, movies and even elections. Young people might be under the illusion that life is over after turning 60, but the heart doesn't change despite getting old."[13] Initially difficult to finance due to ageism, Late Blossom had a small shooting and marketing budget compared to most Korean mainstream films. But it became a sleeper hit, recouping four times its cost in just a few weeks. Lee also won Best Actor under the international film category at the China Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival, becoming its oldest recipient. Lee said, "I never thought I'd win. What a surprise. It feels great to know that Late Blossom has been received well overseas. I thought it would be hard for an actor from television dramas to be awarded a prize at film awards, not to mention the unexpected pleasure of winning at a foreign film awards. I have received the best entertainer award and achievement award before, but receiving this makes me happier and more thrilled." It was his first best actor award in 34 years since the 1977 Baeksang Arts Awards.[14][15]

Lee returned to the stage in 2012 in Father, a Korean adaptation of Arthur Miller's play Death of a Salesman. This was his third time to play the character Willy Loman. Lee said, "When I first played this role in 1978, some parts were rather incomprehensible. But now, as our society developed, we can finally fully understand what those lines mean. That is the beauty of working on masterpieces like Arthur Miller's. I feel a satisfaction and regret at the same time, for I have reached a new comprehension, and for the perspective that I have yet to discover."[16][17]

In 2013, cable channel tvN launched the reality/variety show Grandpas Over Flowers (the title parodies the manga Boys Over Flowers) directed by Na Young-seok (previously of 1 Night 2 Days).[18][19] Defying a youth-centered entertainment industry, the show stars four veteran actors -- Lee, Shin Goo, Park Geun-hyung and Baek Il-seob -- as they go on a backpacking tour of Europe.[20][21]
