Lee Jung-hyun shoots commercials for 7 products in China

Korean singer and actress Lee Jung-hyun will soon be featured in seven television commercials in China, according to her agency on Tuesday.

AVA Entertainment announced in a press release that Lee has been shooting commercials for cosmetics, mobile phone, TV, refrigerator and washing machine brands and is waiting to sign contracts for two additional commercials, a game and clothing brand.

Lee has led a successful singing career in China, with 10 hit songs under her belt. In May, the songstress' title track "Suspicious Man" from her seventh full-length album "Lee Jung Hyun 007th" ranked atop one of China's largest portal sites and she was also named the most searched foreign celebrity.

She will also star as the female lead in a drama tentatively titled "Confucius," which will air towards the end of the year on China's national broadcaster CCTV.

Lee, 30, made her debut in 1996 with a role in the movie "A Petal." She appeared in several more movies and dramas thereafter but is most well-known for her singing career in Korea and other Asian countries.
