Lee Dong-gun expelled from school

Published February 25, 2008 Lee Dong-gun

Things aren’t going so well for panda actor Lee Dong Gun. Adding to his split-up with longtime girlfriend Han Ji Hye, he was expelled from Hang Yang University because his low attendance record. He soon enrolled into a cyber university, in hopes of continuing his studies.

On top of that, Han Ji Hye discussed their break-up on national tv, earning sympathy points, while Lee Dong-gun sealed his lips with a simple “no comment”.

Hopefully things will turn out better for our favorite panda and if not, he can recuperate while serving the military at the year’s end.

i wonder why they broke up…they looked perfect together…well i give him credit for keeping his mouth shut, that’s giving respect to her and what they had.

8 janepak February 25, 2008 at 8:41 am

oh wow =[
sucks to be him.
he doesn’t seem to be doing much lately, wonder why he didn’t go back to school during that time.

Ouch
10 lala February 25, 2008 at 8:50 am

I wonder if they really did try and work with him?

Why wasn’t he taking online courses or half semester/quarter courses that only run for 4-6 weeks?

Aren’t celebrity aids supposed to do their homework for them?
11 Dumpling February 25, 2008 at 9:47 am

Yawn. Who cares?
12 Taejus February 25, 2008 at 10:32 am

Dumpling’s being a bit brash….
13 monalisa February 25, 2008 at 10:45 am

14 era February 25, 2008 at 10:48 am

15 bon February 25, 2008 at 11:28 am

OH MY GOD! What is happening to him?
16 looloo February 25, 2008 at 11:35 am

aww..
17 xoxo February 25, 2008 at 12:55 pm

He has a cute face…but his personality is probably pompous and he probably treats regular people like trash.
18 mIcHeLlE-LuVz-KaNgIn February 25, 2008 at 1:13 pm

I thought he was a proper young man who could’ve been a role model for other celebz.
19 gobuki February 25, 2008 at 2:22 pm

he got expelled??! he should have just treasured his place in a university since its already so hard to get into one in korea
20 penguin_x3 February 25, 2008 at 3:14 pm

so does changmin go to school, even though he practically lives in Japan
21 suga February 25, 2008 at 3:55 pm

lol celebrity shouldnt even bother with schools, since they are rich enough to never work, i think…
22 blinkable February 25, 2008 at 4:06 pm

should I laugh? *supressing laughter*
23 aegyo February 25, 2008 at 4:22 pm

yeah, they shouldn’t bother going to school.
24 pootcha February 25, 2008 at 4:43 pm

Online university…its a joke!

There’s more to education than reading a book. When you take online classes, you are leaving an important part of learning- interaction with fellow students. The experience one shares with peers teaches a valuable lesson in life that reading a book can’t offer but school does.

However, as lim33853 says’ “Who needs school with the name he has-LONG DONG-GUN.” If he embodies his porn name, he will do well in the porn business. He should do gay porn, there’s where the money at.

But if he doesn’t, go to a real university.
25 dwilliams February 26, 2008 at 12:38 am

Xoxo where did you get that from, he probably is conceited and arrogant but that is most people and he is no exception.
26 han February 26, 2008 at 1:54 am

guess he should just forget everything for a while and concentrate on his study. However first of all i suggest he appeals to the Academic Committe
27 breezy February 26, 2008 at 2:18 am

loooool… HA HA HA!!! the pic above just made me laugh… he needs to finish school asap before he get expelled again… well since its an online university i don`t know if “attendance” matters… bleh..

i`m sure he was the one that was dumped… how long have they dated?? 2-3 years? well thats what happens when you go public with your relationships, you break up less than 6 months later…

anyways go luck I guess,, go serve your country and man up…
28 spin February 26, 2008 at 2:23 am

he’ll have plenty of time to contemplate in the army.
29 Asia February 26, 2008 at 2:43 am

Wow epic fail. At least he’s not just quitting.
30 earel February 26, 2008 at 4:04 am

I really feel sorry about him.
I have enjoyed all of his dramas^^ He is a good actor, so maybe University is not made for him.

A-ja a-ja! Fighting!
31 Arie February 26, 2008 at 5:03 am

Coming soon, at the nearest Soju bar next to you.. ^___^
32 Jennifer February 26, 2008 at 8:34 am

~*~*Sucks to be Him! I wish him luck though! *~*~
33 Jane. February 26, 2008 at 12:32 pm

I don’t understand why everyone thinks he’s so good looking. I think its quite the opposite.
34 CHONA February 26, 2008 at 1:52 pm

I’m so sad for you LDG.Your failure is my failure, too.Anyway, continue to dream!!!!!!!!!!!!!
35 Ladeeda February 26, 2008 at 6:24 pm

Long Dong Gun?! You guys crack me up….having long guns is something to be proud of, I guess. LOL!

But I never really thought of Lee Dong Gun as handsome. He’s got some goldfish eyes. So he’s dropped out of college. As Dumpling says, *yawn*.
36 romar February 26, 2008 at 7:10 pm

Online or not, he has to finish his studies. for keeping his mouth shut, good for him. its bad enough that a 3 year relationship has to end so why air your dirty linen in public?
37 choo February 27, 2008 at 8:20 pm

wow, that sucks.

i liked him and hjh. too bad their relationship ended.
38 aida February 28, 2008 at 2:57 am

Why is it that if a person is in already in the gutter that people tries to run them more into the gutter.Maybe there is a good reason why he was expelled,due to unforseen events,no one knows.Always give the person the benefit of the doubt.We all have been there in the gutter,you or anyone of you,but as you know WE all learn from our mistakes,makes us a BETTER Person.Mr.Lee Dong Gun,You can’t probably know now…But there are reason why things happen,and most of the time it is for the best.I wish you all the best of everything..Think of the Positive things in your LIFE….And whether I think you are Handsome…Your Imperfections makes you Unique..Keep that in Mind.No matter what you will always be my STAR…….xraymama
39 aiai February 28, 2008 at 6:01 am

What’s up with all the nasty comments.If you can’t say anything nice,don’t say anything at all.And for those commenting on his looks…Beauty is in the eyes of the
Beholder…..and also try looking at the mirror.Nobody is perfect.Also..school is not for everybody…I am not making excuses for him….just get off his back..
40 cjwrightoboe February 28, 2008 at 6:57 am

Are you sure it wasn’t Hanyang University, not Hang Yang University? Just trying to help.
41 Phyu March 6, 2008 at 5:10 am

i totally agree with the comment of aiai.
But the trouble is that people are never supposed to see themselves but only images of them.
Yeah….
people……..
42 azndude March 11, 2008 at 11:25 am

At least he should have a brain to hire some geek to attend his “online” classes and do his “online” homework. I think the University was pretty disappointed he wasn’t smart enough to even think of that so they felt embarrassed they accepted such a dumbazz in the first place and expelled him. Good job!
43 ilovetosing March 12, 2008 at 5:08 am

Wow!!What a comment!Everyone is entittled to their own opinion.Lee Dong Gun keep your head up high.People are just jealous of your accomplishment in Life.Keep on Smiling.Don’t ever loss your KILLER SMILE…HA!ha!
44 Angelic March 13, 2008 at 1:29 am

As they say “when it rains it pours” but there’s always sunshine and rainbow after the rain. Lee Dong Gun you are one of the best. I love your acting and especially your voice. Stay strong and keep the faith.
45 ilovetosing March 13, 2008 at 2:14 am

Amen to that,Angelic……Yup Lee Dong Gun…Have Faith!!!!

It’s always the aggressive one who would appear in public to win sympathy. By keeping his mouth shut, LDG showed his gentlemanship and make his fans love him even more.
50 Debby April 6, 2008 at 3:01 pm

Being an busy actor, LDG probably just not have the time to attend school simultaneously. There is nothing unusual or wrong with it. By concentrating on your first priority is the key to success. I am with you, LDG.
