Rumors have been floating around that singer/actor Lee Seung Gi would be leaving his variety programs, "1 Night 2 Days" and "Strong Heart", by the end of this month, but producers from both shows have firmly dismissed such notions. According to reports from entertainment industry representatives, the actor had apparently wanted to focus on his original profession of singing and acting, as well as concentrating on a possible advancement into the Japanese market. Regarding the rumors, Park Sang Hyuk PD of "Strong Heart" spoke through MyDaily and clarified, "There is absolutely nothing decided regarding Lee Seung Gi's leave. He's expecting to take part in a variety of activities this year, so we did discuss a possible re-adjustment to his schedule, but we did not discuss his leave, or a possible leave from the show." Director Lee Dong Hee of "1 Night 2 Days" also clarified, "We have never officially discussed Lee Seung Gi's leave from our show." The young star became a breakout player in 2007 through "1 Night 2 Days", and attracted a large fanbase for his innocent but goofy image on the show as the team's maknae. As Korea's representative 'little brother', he teamed up with Kang Ho Dong for "Strong Heart" in 2009. Source: Star News, My Daily via Nate
