Fans of actor Lee Je-hoon are making headlines by donating 2 million won to the independent film Nanumjari in the actor's name.
On July 4, 2025, the official fan cafe of actor Lee Je-hoon, 'Hunist,' will commemorate the actor's birthday by supporting the Nanumjari initiative, engraving the nameplate 'Official Fan Cafe of Actor Lee Je-hoon' in seat I7 of the Indie Space screening room to join in support of independent films.
The supporters from Hunist said, "An actor who loves independent films more than anyone, Lee Je-hoon. He not only acts but also actively visits small local theaters to convey the precious value of independent films to the world. We felt touched by his sincere actions, so we added a small support at Indie Space. In celebration of actor Lee Je-hoon's birthday on July 4, 2025, we will engrave Hunist's heart in that warm space by the side of Lee Je-hoon. We hope that a quiet seat in the theater will become a starting point for someone's first story and shining dream. Like actor Lee Je-hoon, we will continue to believe in and support the beginning and end of films."
Indie Space has confirmed a special screening of 'Fasoo' (2011, directed by Yoon Seong-hyun) at 7 p.m. on July 14 (Monday) to commemorate the Nanumjari donation. Actor Lee Je-hoon became a critically acclaimed actor for his explosive performance as 'Ki-tae' in the often-discussed independent film 'Fasoo,' and he continues to captivate the public with his limitless acting abilities while actively pursuing his career.
This special screening of 'Fasoo' is expected to offer meaningful experiences to various audiences, including those who have seen the film before and new audiences who will have their first encounter with actor Lee Je-hoon at the theater. Additionally, the voluntary donation from Lee Je-hoon's fans and the special screening are anticipated to have a positive impact not only on independent films but also on the domestic film industry as a whole.
Indie Space, which opened in 2007, is Korea's first private independent film theater, showcasing a variety of Korean independent films through releases, exhibitions, and screenings. The 'Nanumjari support' method involves engraving names on theater seats for donations of 2 million won or more; this method of support has been consistently continued since the reopening of Indie Space in 2012 through the interest and affection of audiences, directors, actors, and various film organizations. The efforts of filmmakers and audiences to support independent films have become a reliable pillar for the independent film sector.
