Lee Joon-gi Gets Proposal from Kaige

Actor Lee Joon-gi has received a movie proposal from famed Chinese filmmaker Chen Kaige.

At the 10th Shanghai International Film Festival held Saturday, Lee met with Kaiger who was on the judging panel. Kaiger reportedly personally proposed to Lee that if he would be interested in doing a film with him in China. Lee immediately responded that he's more than willing if there's a good script and a fitting role.

Kaige had worked with Hallyu star Jang Dong-gun in the 2005 film "The Promise" and is apparently positive about working with a Korean actor again. The deal may be realized as Lee is more popular than any other star in China.

After wrapping filming of the Thailand portion of a Korean drama which will air next month, Lee attended the Shanghai festival where he was awarded the popularity prize along with Sharon Stone. He returned home Sunday.
