Beyond Korea to Asia… actor Lee Shin-young confirmed to greet audiences in Taiwan with "Full Throttle"
Following the film "Full Throttle"'s Sept. 10 release, actor Lee Shin-young will visit Taiwan on Oct. 24 and 25 to meet local audiences and fans. A variety of events, including a premiere greeting, a Q&A with the audience (GV), and a press screening, are scheduled to heat up the local scene.
"Full Throttle" is currently set to open in about 40 theaters in Taiwan. This reflects high expectations locally and proves Lee Shin-young's influence, who has been steadily gaining popularity across Asia.
"Full Throttle" is a running drama about former soccer team member Kang Seung-yeol (played by Lee Shin-young) who finds meaning and passion in life through running. It already drew attention after its overseas rights were pre-sold at the Busan International Film Festival ACFM, and its U.S. sale was secured through the film market, showing its potential on the global stage.
During this visit to Taiwan, Lee Shin-young will engage closely with fans through a variety of programs, including a press conference, stage greetings, a Q&A with the audience (GV), and a photocall. He is expected to take group photos with local audiences and share final greetings, creating a meaningful time.
Meanwhile, Lee Shin-young will take on the role of the deposed prince Lee Woon in MBC's new Friday-Saturday drama "A River Runs the Moon," which premieres on Oct. 31 (Fri), challenging himself in the romance-fantasy historical genre. In Park Hoon-jung's global action project "Sad Tropics," where Lee Shin-young plays the lead, he will portray "Ru," a member of a killer organization in the tropical rainforest, delivering weighty acting that goes beyond his youthful image.
