Fans got an eyeful of actor Lee Jeong-jae’s “invincible six-pack” on Tuesday in teaser photos from the upcoming film “Big Match.”
Two photos show the 42-year-old dressed as a mixed martial arts fighter with unkempt hair and tattoos covering his biceps, shoulders, wrist and stomach.
Lee plays an aging fighter named Choi Ik-ho in the film, who is forced into a “life-or-death game” by a wily villain (Shin Ha-gyun) who has detained Choi’s older brother.
Lee has reportedly been preparing for the role since May by boxing, wrestling, weightlifting and dieting.
Directed by Choi Ho and starring hallyu singer BoA, Big Match is coming to the theaters in December.
