Call Me By Fire Star James Lee's Hand Was Severed In A Freak Accident In 2015; Took 5 Surgeries To Reattach It
The former K-pop idol says picking up the instrument again on Call Me By Fire brought back those painful memories.
Former K-pop star James Lee, 33, has seen his popularity skyrocket since appearing on Call Me By Fire.

That, and how his poor command of Mandarin (he is not Chinese, after all) lends itself to a lot of jokes.
Turns out, behind that handsome mug hides a painful past.
