Lee Jong Suk talks about playing a villainous role, work ethic, and more in 'Cosmopolitan'

The actor will be playing his first ever villainous role in his upcoming film 'VIP'. Lee Jong Suk talked about his new character, and said, "Like it says, it's villainous. He's a person who is just pure evil with no reason or cause. Usually, there's a process where a change in a character's emotions take place but the role I play doesn't have any of that. He's a never-before-seen villain."

Next, Lee Jong Suk shared about his hard work ethic, "I used to be scared and struggled with acting. That's why I kept on doing productions without a break. But I think it has become natural now over time."

Aside from acting, Lee Jong Suk also designs clothes with his friends. The clothes have the words, 'Hug and Kiss', embedded on them. He explained the meaning behind the design, and said, "Usually, when we provide comfort for someone, we stretch our arms and try to give them a hug by saying 'Come here'. So I thought of 'Hug', which relates to everyone, and 'Kiss' for couples." He also added that he, too, needs some hugs and kisses.
