Korean actor and model Lee Soo-hyuk will be making his first ever appearance on a variety show this week, his agency SidusHQ announced through a press release on Tuesday.

SidusHQ said that Lee will promote his new film "Runway Cop," share his stories and display his runway walk on the 133th episode of SBS' "Strong Heart" set to hit airwaves tonight.

"Till now, Lee has rejected many offers to appear in variety programs. But he chose 'Strong Heart' because he has a close relationship with the show's host Shin Dong-yeop," an official with SidusHQ was quoted as saying.

Born Lee Hyuk-soo, the actor made his debut as a model by modeling at designer Jung Wook-joon's Lone Costume fashion show in 2006.

After appearing in music videos of girl groups Gavy NJ and 2NE1, in 2009 and 2010, he made his way to expand his career into the small screen.

His credits include popular dramas such as "White Christmas" (KBS, 2011), "Deep Rooted Tree" (SBS, 2011) and "Vampire Idol" (MBN, 2011-2012).

His comedy film "Runway Cop" opposite actor Kang Ji-hwan and actress Sung Yu-ri opened in theaters on May 30 and is currently sitting at No. 3 at weekend box office chart, according to KOBIS (The Korea Box Office Information System).
