Lee Joon Talked about His Ex-Girlfriends
In a recent interview, actor Lee Joon talked about being in love, marriage, and meeting his longstanding ideal type, Kim Yu-na. The actor talked about his own love life in a frank manner and said, “I’m 30 and, although I have had girlfriends, I regret not having dated anyone in a deep and meaningful way. When I was a student, I had a lot of emotional ups and downs because of love and cried a lot because of love; however, as I got older and became an adult, my emotions became more subdued and now I don’t really react too much. I think I’ve become that much more sensitive.” He continued, “Besides when I act, I have not cried [since becoming an adult]. Life in the public social sphere is very fierce and, in order to survive, there are rules that need to be adhered to. I think being in that sort of space has made me very sensitive.” Regarding love, Lee Joon admitted, “I don’t think I’ve ever truly been in love before. Marriage seems like a very vague thing to me. I’ve always thought that I would marry someone that I would take a bullet for, but I have yet to feel that, which is why I’m trying to cultivate those kinds of emotions.” Lee Joon’s longstanding ideal type has been former professional figure skater Kim Yu-na and the actor shared an amusing story about a time when he actually met her. He said, “During the Olympics a while ago, I ran into her and I realized how small I could become around people I truly like. At the time, I was with Jeong Jin-woon and [former] SISTAR member Bora. The two of them greeted [Kim Yu-na] while I hid, but then Jeong Jin-woon called me out, so I reluctantly greeted her and told her I was a fan before running away.” He continued, “That was the first time I felt myself become so small. I liked her as a fan but I couldn’t control my own emotions. I would like to become as cool and levelheaded as her. I think that it’s best to have a levelheaded mindset in any and all situations… She’s younger than me but I think I have a lot to learn from her. I respect her greatly.” Meanwhile, Lee Joon also talked about why he has avoided romantic projects and how he’s open to pursuing other career paths after completing his military service.
