Lee Seung Gi is set to make a striking comeback on the big screen with his role in the upcoming comedy film About Family. Known for his versatile acting and dedication to each role, Lee has taken on the challenge of portraying a Buddhist monk with a unique twist. Recently released stills have already captured fans’ attention, showcasing Lee’s commitment and transformation for the part, sparking anticipation for this comedic yet poignant family drama.

Lee Seung Gi’s Daring New Look as a Monk Draws Praise

On November 5, Lotte Entertainment offered fans an early look at Lee Seung Gi’s new role in About Family, revealing his complete transformation into the character Ham Moon Seok, a devoted monk who once distanced himself from his family to live a life of sacrifice. The stills feature Lee in a shaved head and traditional monk attire, a look that has already sparked widespread admiration from fans and industry insiders alike.

The actor’s decision to undergo such a change stems from both his respect for the role and his dedication to bringing authenticity to his character. Reflecting on the transformation, Lee shared,

“When I found out that Kim Yoon Seok, an actor I’ve always respected, was joining the film, I didn’t need much time to think about it. Given the excellent script, I felt there was no reason to hesitate about shaving my head.”

Director Yang Woo Seok praised Lee’s commitment, revealing that he was their first choice for the role. This blend of a talented cast and a promising script has raised expectations for About Family.

Plot: A Family Comedy with an Unexpected Twist

About Family revolves around Ham Moo Ok, played by seasoned actor Kim Yoon Seok, who owns the popular dumpling restaurant Pyungmanok. Believing that his family line ended when his only son, Ham Moon Seok, chose a monastic path, Moo Ok is shocked to discover unexpected grandchildren—a twist that promises both humor and heartfelt moments.

The film delves into themes of family, tradition, and unexpected revelations. Ham Moon Seok’s life as a monk appears peaceful, and he even becomes a superstar monk with a large following. However, his world is shaken when a scandalous revelation about his past surfaces during a live broadcast, bringing to light hidden secrets, including the existence of his children. This unforeseen twist adds complexity to Lee’s character, blending humor with a story that addresses personal growth and reconciliation.

Release Date and Expectations

With About Family hitting theaters on December 11, fans are eagerly awaiting Lee Seung Gi’s portrayal of Ham Moon Seok and the dynamic interactions within this unconventional family. The film promises a mix of laughter, surprises, and thought-provoking moments, showcasing the unique chemistry among a talented cast.
