A wax figure of the popular Korean actor Lee Jong-suk will go on display in a global museum of wax dolls in Hong Kong, his management said Monday.

"Lee recently met officials from Madame Tussauds' Hong Kong to take his measurements," Wellmade Yedang said.

His wax figure will go on display at the museum in the first half of next year, along with world-renowned figures, such as U.S. President Barack Obama, actresses Angelina Jolie and Audrey Hepburn, and Hong Kong actor Andy Lau.

Lee is the fourth Korean whose wax figure is to be installed at the museum after actors Bae Yong-joon, Lee Min-ho and Kim Soo-hyun, according to Yedang. (Yonhap)
