Actor Lee Seo-jin expressed his ambition to challenge for his first play "Uncle Vanya" in 27 years since his debut.

Lee Seo-jin said through his agency's antenna on the 6th, "It is true that I had a long thought before trying the theater stage, but I decided to appear because it would be a meaningful new challenge," adding, "I want to practice hard and show my own vanya to the audience." I am only focusing on practice," he said, expressing his determination to work on the work. The first script reading scene in a friendly atmosphere was also released, drawing expectations.

Lee Seo-jin recently drew great attention by announcing the production of the LG Art Center and the appearance of the play "Uncle Vanya" directed by Ahn Sang-kyu. Lee Seo-jin is trying to play for the first time since his debut in 1999.

Uncle Vanya is the representative work of Anton Chekhov, the great writer of Russia, and is still one of the most performed classic masterpieces on the world stage. It depicts the stories of ordinary characters who have devoted their entire lives to their homes, families, and order within them, as well as "Vanya" and "Sonya," who at some point deviate from the trajectory of daily life and shake their entire lives.

In the play, Lee Seo-jin plays "Vanya," the main character who retains her affection for her family and affection for her dreams, while throwing up her dissatisfaction and skepticism about life. Lee Seo-jin, who is scheduled to fill the stage with the previous round (22nd) one-cast, is expected to convincingly portray Vanya's complex emotional lines.

Uncle Vanya will be performed at LG Art Center Seoul LG SIGNATURE Hall in Magok-dong, Gangseo-gu, Seoul from May 7 to 31.
