Lee Kyun is a South Korean actor, singer and businessman. He graduated from Janghoon High School and later obtained a bachelor's degree in Acting and Film Studies from Suwon University. He made his debut in 1997 when he joined UP (유피) as the vocalist. The group had already debuted the year before but underwent several lineup changes and controversies regarding the treatment they received from their agency. He joined for their 4th album but left immediately after the promotion ended as the company thought he was not up to their standards. He became an actor and debuted in 2003 with a role in SBS's "Apgujeong House" (압구정 종갓집) but became more popular with his role in the 2005 drama "Hello, Franceska" (안녕, 프란체스카). However, he quit acting around 2015 to focus on his new coffee business in Vietnam, where he spends most of his time managing it. He re-appeared on South Korean television in 2023.
