Lee Do Hyun, the actor, has completed his military service with the Air Force military band after about 21 months, marking the end of his service and the end of his girlfriend, Lim Ji Yeon's long wait. Fans warmly welcome the 30-year-old actor back to civilian life as he is discharged on May 13 KST.
Even though he began his military duty in August 2023, Lee stayed active in the entertainment industry with pre-filmed projects. During the 60th Baeksang Arts Awards, where he won Best New Actor for his role in the film 'Exhuma', he garnered attention by appearing in uniform and expressing gratitude to Ji Yeon publicly, which was seen as a sweet gesture towards his girlfriend.
Lee and Lim Ji Yeon have been in a public relationship since before he enlisted, and he effectively managed both his personal life and career during his service, leaving a mark with projects such as 'Exhuma' and Netflix’s 'Sweet Home'.
With his discharge, Lee is set to fully engage in his acting career once again. There are talks of him taking on a lead role in an upcoming drama by the Hong Sisters, alongside reports of Go Min Si joining the cast as his co-star, leading to heightened anticipation from fans.
Born in 1995, Lee Do Hyun debuted in the 2017 drama 'Prison Playbook' and gained recognition through popular series like 'Sweet Home' (2020), 'Youth of May' (2021), and 'The Glory' (2022).
As Lee re-enters the spotlight after his discharge, all eyes are on his renewed connection with Lim Ji Yeon, who patiently stood by him throughout his military service.
