Lee Jun-ho Apologizes for 'Bubble' Neglect: 'It's All My Fault, I'll Be More Careful'

Actor Lee Jun-ho has personally apologized to fans for his perceived lack of activity on the paid fan communication app, Bubble.

During an interview held on December 1st at a cafe in Seongsu-dong, Seoul, following the finale of his tvN drama 'King of the Land,' Lee Jun-ho addressed the issue. "There's nothing to explain, it's entirely my fault," he stated, repeatedly apologizing.

"I should have made more effort to visit regularly with a sense of responsibility, but I got so immersed in filming that I lost track of time. I am truly sorry," he confessed. "I was out of my mind. I should have paid more attention, and it's all my fault."

Recently, some fans expressed dissatisfaction with Lee Jun-ho's infrequent updates on Bubble, which garnered attention when reported by media outlets.

In 'King of the Land,' Lee Jun-ho portrayed Kang Tae-poong, a novice businessman who suddenly becomes the president of a trading company amidst the 1997 IMF crisis. His journey of growth resonated deeply with viewers. The drama concluded with a viewership rating of 10.3%, a significant increase from its premiere rating of 5.9% (Nielsen Korea, nationwide), and was also ranked as the most-loved TV program in Korea in a November survey.

Following his return from military service, Lee Jun-ho has achieved three consecutive box office hits with 'The Red Sleeve' (MBC, 2021), 'King of the Land' (JTBC, 2023), and 'King of the Land' (tvN, 2024), solidifying his reputation as a 'trustworthy actor.' He recently established his own agency, 'O3 Collective,' and continues his active career with upcoming projects like the Netflix series 'Cashier' and the film 'Veteran 3.'

Fans responded positively to Lee Jun-ho's sincere apology, commenting, "It's good that he's honest," "But please visit more often next time," and "I'll support you even more going forward."
