J Style is the second maxi single[1] by Lee Joon-gi produced with musician Kim Hyeong-seok. The album includes four new songs, including three songs from his previous album My Jun, My Style. One of the songs, "Selfless Dedicated Trees", was written by Lee's fans at the Episode Two – Mask fan meeting in April 2009. J Style reached the first rank in the Hanteo chart within a day of its release.[2]
Originally an actor, Lee Joon-gi performed three songs at a fan concert in 2006, which were later released to online music services; these songs were not specially promoted.[3] While Lee was preparing for his second fan concert, Episode Two – Mask, in April 2009, a preview of the music video for "J Style", which he was to show at the event, was released.[4] Photos from inside the album were also leaked to the internet two months later.[1] On April 14, it was reported that he would make his musical debut.[5] Lee stated during a press conference that the release was a project and did not spell for an official debut; he sought to "repay" his fans through its release.[6][7]
