Oct 2, 2023

Lee Je Hoon is recovering from emergency surgery.

On October 2, the actor’s agency COMPANY ON revealed, “Lee Je Hoon went to the hospital on the night of [October] 1 due to severe abdominal pain, and he was diagnosed with ischemic colitis. He received emergency surgery early on [October] 2.”

The agency continued, “Thankfully the surgery was successful, and he is currently recovering at the hospital. We will have to watch the progress of his recovery, but he will probably have to hospitalized for about a week.”

As a result, Lee Je Hoon will not be attending the opening ceremony of the 28th Busan International Film Festival, which he was set to host together with Park Eun Bin on October 4. Park Eun Bin will now host the event as a solo MC.

In addition, Lee Je Hoon is unable to attend the 2023 Buil Film Awards on October 5.

COMPANY ON commented, “We feel very apologetic to the Busan International Film Festival and the Buil Film Awards.”

Wishing Lee Je Hoon a speedy recovery!
