The "original flower boy" actor Lee Dong-gun (44) has opened a cafe in Jeju Island, receiving a warm response since the opening day.
On the 14th, Lee Dong-gun posted a video on his personal account showcasing the cafe's appearance, the atmosphere on-site, and his nervous feelings.
The cafe featured in the video is a transformed house, with a pond, a pink building, and various charming decorations, creating an exotic and mysterious interior that feels like being abroad.
The official cafe account mentioned, "There was a waiting line from the very first day of opening," and expressed gratitude for the patience of customers. "This place, located in Aewol, Jeju, is a space that offers rest and relaxation. As you enter the alley, you will find an oasis along with freshly brewed sand coffee and desserts! We will be waiting for you to come whenever you need a break."
Additionally, you can see Lee Dong-gun transforming into a barista, making Turkish-style sand coffee, and Lee Sang-min, who appeared as a part-time worker to support the filming of 'My Little Old Boy'.
Meanwhile, Lee Dong-gun married fellow actress Jo Yoon-hee in 2017 and had a daughter, but they divorced in 2020 after three years.
Afterward, he made a return to acting with Netflix's 'Celebrity' (2023) after a long hiatus and is currently appearing on SBS's variety show 'My Little Old Boy'. He has previously expressed his dream of starting a cafe on the show and has been preparing to move for his daughter, who has just entered elementary school, as he works hard for a fresh start.
