Actor Lee Jong-hyuk’s eldest son, Lee Tak-soo, has officially launched his acting career — signing with his father’s agency, Big Boss Entertainment, and taking his first steps as an actor.
On the 18th, Big Boss Entertainment announced it had signed an exclusive contract with Lee Tak-soo, stating, "Loved by the public since childhood, Lee Tak-soo has quietly pursued his dream of becoming an actor," and added, "Recognizing his passion for acting and limitless potential, we signed an exclusive deal. We will spare no effort to support him as a strong partner so he can grow into an outstanding actor."
Lee Tak-soo first left a strong impression on the public in 2013 through MBC’s hit variety show Dad! Where Are We Going?, appearing with his father Lee Jong-hyuk and younger brother Lee Jun-su. He later shared steady updates on his growth by joining Tooniverse’s Boys and Girls and Stress Zero Zone: Blow It Away, as well as programs like When Our Kids Fall In Love and My Child’s Private Life.
Nurturing his dream of acting from a young age, he graduated from Goyang Arts High School’s acting department and entered Dongguk University’s Department of Theatre, building solid fundamentals through systematic training. Recently, he was cast as Charlie Dalton in the play Dead Poets Society, announcing his official stage debut and signaling full-fledged activities as an actor.
Meanwhile, Big Boss Entertainment — the agency Lee Tak-soo has joined — is home to a powerhouse roster of screen and stage talents, including his father Lee Jong-hyuk, Risa, Koo Sung-hwan, Lee Hyun-gyun, Jeon Dong-seok, Park Gyu-ri, Lee Joo-seung, and Lee Bom-sori.
