Kim's Convenience star Paul Sun-Hyung Lee will delve into the phenomenon of fandom in a new series.

Variety reports that Lee, who played Kim family patriarch "Appa" on the CBC comedy for five seasons, will be the host of forthcoming show Fandemonium.

The site reports that the series, currently in development at Great Pacific Media, will centre on a different fandom each episode, "highlighting everything from rare collectables to long-lost props and outrageous fan builds."

"Fandemonium is a passion project made for the fans, about the fans, by a fan," Lee shared in a statement. "I'm excited to be collaborating with Great Pacific Media to celebrate fandom in all its forms and show the world the positivity and impact that being a fan can be."

Before the sudden end of Kim's Convenience, Lee appeared in The Mandalorian, and recently returned to a galaxy far, far away with The Book of Boba Fett.

Last November, Lee was cast in Netflix's forthcoming live-action adaptation of Avatar: The Last Airbender.
