Lee Chan-won Fan of Leslie Cheung

Singer Lee Chan-won reveals his fan admiration for the late Hong Kong actor Leslie Cheung. The KBS2 show 'Celebrity Soldier's Secret,' airing on the 14th, will deeply illuminate the life of the immortal star, the late Leslie Cheung, who remains 'evergreen' 23 years after his passing.

On April 1, 2003, a manager waiting for Leslie Cheung, who had said "I'll be there soon" in front of a hotel, heard a tremendous roar. Seeing someone fall, he thought it was a traffic accident and reported it. The manager, who followed to the hospital, eventually confirmed it was Leslie Cheung. Police announced that Leslie Cheung had taken his own life by jumping from the 24th floor of the hotel. Because the tragic news arrived on April Fools' Day, many people could not accept the shocking news as fact, leading to numerous rumors and suspicions.

Editor Joo Sung-chul revealed surprising facts, stating that a skit that served as a stepping stone for national MC Yoo Jae-suk's debut was a parody of a Leslie Cheung film, and that the name of national singer Lim Young-woong was also influenced by 'A Better Tomorrow.'

In response, Lee Chan-won confessed to being a "fan who achieved their dream" and shared an episode of his personal pilgrimage to Hong Kong. He expressed particular regret over the now-disappeared public phone booth from 'A Better Tomorrow,' lamenting, "Why did they get rid of it?"

'Celebrity Soldier's Secret' will air on Tuesday, the 14th, at 8:30 PM.
