Lee Byung Hun has lent his voice to the Netflix animated film 'K-Pop Demon Hunters.'

This action-musical animation tells the story of K-pop girl group members who lead double lives: superstars on stage, and demon hunters offstage. The unique concept blends high-energy performances with thrilling supernatural battles.

Lee Byung Hun takes on the role of the main villain, Gwima, the king of ancient demons. Gwima gains power by absorbing human souls and poses a formidable threat to the hunters in his quest to dominate the world.

Lee Byung Hun provided voice work in both English and Korean, adding gravitas to the film through his voice alone. His nuanced performance transcends language, conveying subtle emotional tones that aim to resonate with a global audience.

This marks his second recent voice acting role. He also voiced Charles Dickens in the North American animated feature 'King of Kings,' which is set to premiere in South Korea next month.

'K-Pop Demon Hunters' is now available on Netflix. Lee Byung Hun will also return as the Front Man in 'Squid Game' Season 3, premiering on June 27.
