Beast's Lee Gi Kwang's charms seem to have managed to attract the attention of 'old uncle' fans in addition to his teenage fangirls. His six-pack abs and smooth dance moves are certainly worthy enough to capture the attention of any fan, but it's actually his friendly appearance alongside senior MCs that have promoted him to a position that most idols find much difficulty reaching. Starting with "High Kick Through the Roof" as 'Seho,' he's moved on to variety shows such as "Hot Brothers", and even a talk show with "Win Win." Lee Gi Kwang recently participated in an interview with Union News and expressed his thoughts on getting to where he is now, and also on his future. His spunky character on "Hot Brothers" earned much love from viewers, but he reveals that he wasn't like that from the start. "I felt a bit closed up after I finished recording the first episode. I had something that I wanted to protect as an idol at first, but I realized as I was watching my awkward image on TV that I was doing a disservice to everyone sitting in front of their TVs expecting to enjoy a show and laugh a bit. At that moment, I realized that I had to throw away whatever hesitation I had as an actor and a singer and just break out of my mold." When asked which 'brother' treats him the best, he thought for a moment before answering, "Jaehoon hyung. They all treat me very well, actually. They might seem mean in the episodes, but they're never like that off screen. Jaehoon hyung treats me very warmly. I think it's because he's got a youthful sense that connects well with me despite being double my age." Following "Hot Brothers" is "Win Win," his second fixed casting on a variety show. "I'm learning a different genre of variety through this show. It's a lot of fun right now, but I think it's mainly because I learned variety shows the hard way through 'Hot Brothers.' In 'Hot Brothers,' my job is to just show a funny image of myself, but it's different for 'Win Win.' I have to listen to the stories that the guests tell and try to pinpoint something interesting or funny out of it. I still think I'm in the adjusting stage... I'm still trying to figure out the timing of when to laugh while listening to sad or fun stories. Regardless, it is fun because it's different." Lee Gi Kwang concluded the interview with a comment on Beast and the group's future. "Whether it's through variety shows, acting, or singing, I want to show diverse sides of myself. Beast will be showing a charismatic and sexy image for our third album, which will be released by the end of this month." When asked to describe the difference between Beast and other idols, he answered, "Our innocence and freshness. It feels like a group of close neighborhood friends that just came together to enjoy music. Whenever we're together, I feel like I'm on a high school field trip. Every single member has their own skills and talents, making it extremely enjoyable when we rehearse music and joke around. I feel like Beast is just an iceberg with only the tip of it poking out of the water. We're a group with a lot more charms to show so please anticipate us."
