Actor Lee Jung-jae is set to enter the cosmetics industry, launching a skin care line inspired by his own personal battles with skin issues. The news was shared on his social media platform, where he mentioned his initial plans to focus on film and television projects in 2026.

"I've developed cosmetics that people who struggle with skin problems like I do can use together," he stated. The launch of this new venture is imminent, and Lee admits to feeling a sense of nervousness akin to the anticipation he experiences before releasing a new film or television series.

They aimed to provide a visual testament to the extent of his struggles, should fans or the general public question why Lee Jung-jae would choose to embark on this new endeavor after such a challenging personal experience.
