Lee Byung Hun Works Well With His Co-Stars

Lee Byung Hun is not just a talented, good-looking actor. On set, his co-stars report that he is also easy to work with. And he is not shy about praising his co-stars whether they are Hollywood or Hallyu stars.

Recently the international star earned some praise from a Hollywood superstar. In a recent interview, Bruce Willis, his co-star in the action comedy film "Red 2" and also in "G.I. Joe: Retaliation" had kind words to say about how well they worked together.

 "I was really impressed when I did two movies with him," said Willis. "His moves were accurate but safe and he acts out even the rough action scenes realistically."

Willis, who rarely says a lot in interviews, described Lee Byung Hun as a much better fighter than he was and a funny guy who liked to joke around on set.

"He's great to work with," said Willis.

Lee Byung Hun also praised his "Red 2" co-stars. He referred to them as incredible actors and once commented on how Willis had gone out of his way to make him feel comfortable on set.

"I worked with a dream cast and I still can't believe this," said Lee Byung Hun.

It's not just that he is impressed to be working with Hollywood stars. He has said many kind words about his Korean co-stars.

On a recent MBC entertainment show, he praised actor Sung Dong Il, who was last seen in "Jang Ok Jung."

"His acting is so real and natural, I am jealous," said Lee Byung Hun.

He also praised Kim Tae Hee, who was also last seen in "Jang Ok Jung."

"I was surprised by how unpretentious she is and how easy-going she is on set," he said.

When asked which actors he was most comfortable working with, he named Song Kang Ho and Ryu Seung Ryong.

Soon he will have a whole new cast of co-stars. He has signed on for the film "Memories of the Sword" with award-winning actresses Jeon Do Yeon and Kim Go Eun.

In the film, Jeon Do Yeon's character Seol Lang trains to become the nation's best swordfighter so she can take her revenge out on Lee Byung Hun's character. He plays Deok Ki, the son of a royal concubine and he conspires to take over the throne. Seol Lang trains her daughter, played by Kim Go Eun, to help with her revenge. It's a great cast and they will no doubt work well together.
