Lee Kwang Soo is a South Korean actor, model, and entertainer best known for being a former member of the variety show "Running Man". He's under King Kong by Starship.
He completed his military service and was discharged in 2007.

Lee began his entertainment career as a model in 2007 and made his acting debut in the 2008 sitcom, "Here He Comes".

Lee is a former member of the defunct boy band, Sweet Sorrow, before leaving the group in 2010 to proceed on his acting career. He is nicknamed "Prince of Asia" due to him being mobbed by numerous fans whenever "Running Man" episodes are filmed in other Asian countries such as Thailand, Hong Kong, China, Macau, and Vietnam. After 11 years of being a member of "Running Man", Lee left the show citing difficulties in filming due to the broken ankle he suffered in a car accident in 2020.

Since July 2018, Lee has been dating actress Lee Sun Bin, whom he met on the set of "Running Man". Edit Biography
