'Las' actor Lee Jun-hyeok showcased his tearful friendship with director Jang Hang-jun, known for 'The King and the Man'.

On the 26th episode of MBC's 'Radio Star', Lee Jun-hyeok, who became a ten-million-view supporting actor through the film 'The King and the Man', said, "I was so happy that director Jang Hang-jun received recognition. I already knew his capabilities, but it feels great that everyone now recognizes them," adding warmth to the conversation.

He continued, "I've known director Jang Hang-jun since we worked on a play together. This time, things went so well that people around me even told me to manage my expressions. In 'The King and the Man', I played the role of the youngest uncle and improvised with actor Yoo Hae-jin on the spot. The director is very receptive. When something succeeds, he always says it's all due to himself," eliciting laughter from the audience.

Lee Jun-hyeok also shared an anecdote about another actor named Lee Jun-hyeok who appeared alongside him in 'The King and the Man'. He recalled, "When I was asked if I had received a rom-com offer, I said yes. One day, I got a casting call asking for my physical measurements. After I mentioned my weight, they told me it seemed too heavy, so I checked and realized it was another actor named Lee Jun-hyeok. Even actor Yoo Hae-jin thought the Lee Jun-hyeok listed for the youngest uncle role had undergone a dramatic transformation."

Meanwhile, on this episode of 'Radio Star', actors Hwang Seok-jeong, Lee Jun-hyeok, and Seo Eun-kwang appeared, showcasing their rich conversational skills.
