Just recently, famous Korean actor Lee Jae Wook delighted fans with his vocal skills on KBS's 'The Seasons: Artist with ZICO'.
He sang "Johnny" by Primary and Dynamic Duo with Zico to demonstrate his vocal range, and he gave a solo performance of "Let's Say Goodbye" by Parc Jae Jung.

It seemed like a good time, however before the show concluded, Jae Wook offered some painful news regarding his military enlistment plans.
"I have not got much time left before I head off to the military," he remarked. "I want to do a lot of things before I go, but I'm thinking about going next year."
