SEOUL, May 14 (Yonhap) -- Actor Lee Ki-taek will join KBS 2TV's variety show "2 Days & 1 Night Season 4" as a new cast member, his agency KeyEast said Thursday.

Lee will fill the vacancy left by actor Yoo Seon-ho, who recently departed the program, and will work alongside existing cast members Kim Jong-min, Moon Se-yoon, DinDin and Lee Jun.

He is scheduled to participate in his first filming session on May 22.

Lee debuted as a model in 2018 and began his acting career with the 2020 web drama "In-Seoul 2."

He recently appeared as Shin Ji-su, a younger man who captures the attention of Lee Eui-young, played by Han Ji-min, in the JTBC drama "Efficient Dating for Singles," which ended in April.

Lee is also appearing in the Coupang Play variety show "Bonjour Bakery" alongside Cha Seung-won, Kim Hee-ae and Kim Seon-ho.
