Korean actor Lee Joon-gi, who recently sustained a nose fracture while shooting an upcoming drama, reassured fans on his Instagram, with a photo of him clad in traditional costume.

Lee plays a main character in the upcoming period TV drama “The Scholar Who Walks the Night,” which is a fantasy romance about vampires and scholars based on the eponymous Web cartoon.

“Thanks and Sorry,” said Lee on Instagram, Friday.

Lee underwent surgery for a nose fracture Wednesday, according to his agency.

Lee Yu-bi, who also plays an important role in the TV drama, also injured her hip on set the same day, apparently from the same accident. Lee Yu-bi is scheduled to be discharged from the hospital after treatment next week.

The MBC TV drama is scheduled to start airing in July. Other actors in the drama are Kim So-eun, Lee Soo-hyuk and TVXQ singer Changmin.
