Korean singer and an actor Jang Keun-suk recently graced the cover of Japan's popular weekly fashion magazine anan, revealed his agency Tree J Company on Thursday.

According to a press release by Tree J today, Jang appeared on the cover of the March 30 edition of anan whose main subscribers are women in 20s and 30s and is known to feature only the hottest celebrities in the country.

Over 280,000 copies of the magazine featuring Jang were sold, seeing a complete sell-out the same week, Tree J said.

“I was surprised when I was set as the cover model for anan. I took part in the shooting with great eagerness and the atmosphere on set was really good too. I was also surprised at the number of copies that got sold in such a short span of time,” Jang was quoted as saying in the statement.

Jang made his debut in entertainment at the early age of five as a catalog model. His TV debut came in 1997 with the cable channel HBS’ sitcom “Happiness For Sale” and has since appeared in numerous dramas including youth sitcom “Non Stop 4” (MBC, 2004), historical drama “Hwang Jinny” (KBS, 2006).

He rose to super stardom in Korea and throughout Asia after starring in the SBS hit series "He is Beautiful" where he played the eccentric lead singer of the idol group A.N.JELL where he proved himself capable of covering fields of both music and acting.

Earlier this month, Jang was in Japan to promote his upcoming film which will be a remake of Japanese manga "きみはペット" (You’re My Pet) and he endorses “Suntory Seoul Makgeolli,” Korea's traditional rice wine being sold in Japan.

He is also set to release his first single album in Japan which has been pushed back to April 27 due to the country being in distress after its massive earthquake on March 11.

Most recently, he returned to Korea after shooting an editorial in Europe and is busy preparing for his upcoming Asia tour that will cover Taiwan, Hong Kong, Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia and other countries.
