Lee Min Ho, Jisung and Choi Kang Hee receive Grand Prize At SBS Drama Awards
City Hunter’s Lee Min Ho and Protect The Boss’s Jisung and Choi Kang Hee received the Best Actor prize in the special project category.
At 2011 SBS Actor Awards that was held at Deung Chon SBS Public Hall on December 31 starting from 8:40 p.m, Lee Min Ho, Jisung and Choi Kang Hee received awards.
After receiving the award Lee Min Ho says, “Five years ago, I played a lead role in a series that was not that popular, but it came to an early finish. However, five years later today, I am on this grand stage receiving an award. I want to thank all the staff who have worked hard for City Hunter, and all the fans in Korea and worldwide for always supporting and encouraging me.”
Jisung reveals, “I never imagined that I would be receiving this prize. It feels like yesterday that I stressed out at my lack of acting, but thank you for giving me such a grand prize. I really appreciate the opportunity that I had to work with many staff members. The team for Protect The Boss worked in perfect harmony. My father is currently ill, and it’s his birthday today. I think this will be a great gift to him.”
Choi Kang Hee was about to cry and said, “The shooting was really tough, but it was fun too. There’s a saying ‘Love grows even in the fiercest battlefield’ I don’t know if this will explain what I’m trying to say, but Protect The Boss was a piece of work like that maxim. I think that I lack in every way. So what I tried hardest is to be like the viewers. I want to be an actress who can gain sympathy and give dream to the viewers.”

Lee Min Ho @ MBC Drama Awards 2011
Lee Min Ho was presenting the Excellence Award (Mini-series Actor & Actress) with Lee So Yeon at MBC Drama Awards 2011
Translation on opening dialogue (based on c-sub by 瘋狂的貧道@weibo)
LSY: There is continuous acclaim since Lee Min Ho appears on stage. Since “Personal Taste” last year, found that you have always created different images/ characters in drama. Do you have plans to play a role in MBC drama next year?
LMH: Up till now there is no concrete plan yet. What kind of character do you think it fits me?
LSY: How about choosing one of the character from MBC dramas this year?
LMH: There are a lot of good dramas & characters from MBC this year. Choose only one would be a very difficult decision.
LSY: Then how about Dok Gu Jin in “Best Love”?
LMH: That’s a character that can make people happy and is very charismatic, it is really very attractive to an actor. If I play this role, I think it won’t be that popular as Cha Seung Won sunbae did.
LSY: Lee Min Ho is very humble~
LMH: How about Lee So Yeon ssi? Which character in MBC drama is the most attractive to you?
LSY: Actually I also love the drama “Best Love”, that kind of cute character played by Gong Hyo Jin is very attractive to me.
LMH: I think you can also handle that kind of character very well.
LSY: Thank you

Lee Min Ho receives casting offer to work with Andy Lau
Actor Lee Min Ho‘s popularity is on the rise, as seen by the numerous casting offers he’s been receiving from producers in China.
His most recent work proposal was for a production with top star Andy Lau. A representative stated, “Lee Min Ho’s most recent love call was a piece with Andy Lau. If he were to accept it, then this piece would surpass [the borders of] Asia and become a global project. Lee Min Ho is very popular in China. He probably has more popularity than most idol stars. There has been quite a competition on casting the star.”
Thanks to his hit drama ‘City Hunter‘, Lee Min Ho has been receiving a ton of invitations for fantasy and action pieces. Last July, famous Hong Kong and American film producer Terrance Chang made a surprise visit to the set of ‘City Hunter’ just for Lee Min Ho.
Lee Min Ho’s agency stated, “It is true Lee Min Ho has been receiving a lot of casting calls from China. However nothing is confirmed. We will make a decision after careful thinking and planning.”

Lee Min Ho to make a Chinese debut soon?
Lee Min Ho’s recent meeting with Andy Lau, a popular singer, actor, and film producer in Hong Kong, is garnering a lot of attention from both the press and netizens. Through dramas like “Boys Over Flowers” and “City Hunter,” Lee Min Ho has become a household name in China and elsewhere. Recently, he met with thousands of his Chinese fans during his “2011 Asia Tour Fan Meeting” in Shanghai and Beijing. Therefore, it doesn’t come as a surprise to hear that Lee Min Ho has been receiving several love calls from Chinese producers. Out of the several projects he’s been offered, one stands out because it stars the legendary Andy Lau.
A source stated, “One of the projects sent to Lee Min Ho for consideration stars Andy Lau. If Lee Min Ho accepts, this will be a global project, something that will go beyond Asia.” He added, “Lee Min Ho’s popularity in China is unimaginable. His fan base is almost as large as some of the most popular idol stars. As a result, the competition to cast Lee Min Ho in their projects is extremely fierce.
A representative of StarHaus Entertainment stated, “It’s true that we’ve been receiving countless offers from China. However, we have not made a final decision on any project. We will make our decision after carefully considering each offer.”
Lee Min Ho has received various offers from Chinese producers – ranging from fantasy martial arts to investigative action-filled projects. Some of these works include other famous Chinese actors, besides Andy Lau, as well. Back in July, Hong Kong/American film producer Terence Chang personally visited the set of “City Hunter” to meet with Lee Min Ho. Almost half a year has passed since “City Hunter” ended, but Lee Min Ho’s popularity and recognition only continues to soar.

Lee Min Ho to appear on a Chinese
'"New Year Special" Program
Actor Lee Min Ho will appear on the Chinese program, “Que-Rak-Dae-Bon-Young”(Happy Camp 快樂大本營), for a ‘new year special’ program.
Lee’s agency, Starhaus Entertainment, said that Chinese Honam satellite broadcasting (Hunan TV 湖南衛視) will air a 90 minute long special program exclusively about Lee. This is quite a surprise, considering that the program normally casts three guests for the standard 60 minute long episodes.
Lee bought lacquerware inlaid with mother-of-pearl in Korea and gave it to the MC for the show with a new year greeting card. He also gave each audience member a traditional Korean wicker scoop, which is known for bringing good luck.
According to a Chinese media outlet, over 1,500 fans came to see Lee and they watched the show while sitting on the floor. Thousands of fans also gathered outside of the building.
Usually the shooting is free but for Lee’s program, there were illegal tickets, which cost 30 thousand won to a million won.
The producer for the show posted a note on his Weibo account, “Thank you everyone, including the entire crew, audience and today’s star. I had a great show thanks to Lee. I met a handsome man, from any angle, for the first time. Who else is going to make the staff scream for joy, other than Lee?”
The show is very popular, and has hundreds of millions viewers.

Lee Min Ho sings for 10,000 fans in China
Earlier this month, actor Lee Min Ho stole the hearts of 10,000 fans while on his ‘2011 Asia Tour Fan Meeting‘ in Shanghai and Beijing.
The concept of Lee Min Ho’s fan meet was ‘fantastical musical’, and so the star delivered an entertaining, if not unique experience for his fans, who flew in from Korea, Singapore, the Philippines, and Japan.
The opening stage saw Lee Min Ho descend into the concert hall from wires attached to the ceiling, much like a scene straight out of his drama, ‘City Hunter‘. He then put on an impressive acting scene before going on to perform “My Everything” from the ‘Boys Over Flowers‘ special album.
For his next stage, Lee Min Ho dressed in a sleek black suit before performing the Beatles‘ “Yesterday” and “I Will” with a band. Fans even got to see him show off his dance skills with a Michael Jackson silhouette parody.
Through simple games, the star interacted with his fans, gifting them with personal presents he had brought from Korea. Perhaps the most touching moment was when he sat before a piano and played a few songs, before taking out letters he had written for his fans and reading them out loud.
The finale unveiled Lee Min Ho’s two new songs, which he had worked on with composer Hwang Chan Hee. One of the songs was a medium-tempo rock track called “Say Yes“.
Representatives stated, “While spending meaningful time with his fans on the Asia tour, he is also discussing other dramas to take on since concluding ‘City Hunter’.”

Lee Min Ho is showing a noble, well-mannered and kind attitude, which goes hand in hand with his status as a superstar. A few days ago, Lee Min Ho arrived at China to held a Fan Meeting there and his Chinese fans welcome him in a amazing way. A lot of people surround Lee Min Ho when he came to China, making a Netizen post a "Where's Waldo" picture from "The Simpsons" (see picture below).

Lee Min Ho's Interview @ Shanghai
December 12, 2011
Credits: KanKaNews
Q: were you scared by the enthusiastic fans at Pudong Airport?
L: There were lots of fans at the airport when I arrived. Actually I didn’t expect there would be so many of them. The security measures was not well prepared and everyone was crowded together when I came out (from immigration). I was happy & worried at the same time. I am glad that so many fans greeted me at the airport and also worried that they would fell and get hurt. I also stumbled and the situation was a bit chaotic. I was still excited that so many fans welcomed me, and I was relieved when knowing that no one was injured at the airport. I would like to take this opportunity to thank my fans for greeting me.
Q: What didn’t you use the VIP path?
L: Being a celebrity, meeting my fans directly is something I can managed. If there is no safety issue when I arrived at the airport, I would try my best (to meet them direcrly). Hope this can reciprocate my fans who have been waiting at the airport for a long time. Thus I didn’t choose the VIP path.
Q: What kind of surprise you would bring us at the fanmeeting this time?
L: Compared to the previous ones, there will be a lot of content in this fanmeeting. Being an actor, I will sing a lot of songs, and have prepared some other performances. There will also have some close interactions with fans. I have prepared a lot for it.
Q: Do you have plan to release an album?
L: I think my singing skill is just average. I have participated in singing songs for some dramas before. In future I think mostly it would be for fans or drama & movie, for which my song would be released in an album.
Q: Do you like to be called “Flower boy”?
L: After BOF, people add “Flower Boy” in front of my name. Actually I don’t feel like it and have burden about it. In fact my appearance is not a flower boy, there are many boys who are handsome and are beautiful like a girl. I think my figure is very masculine and strong, and is different from “Flower Boy”
Q: What is your direction for career development in future?
L: Instead on personal charm, the charisma was brought by the characters that I played. The different characters that I played in previous projects, they possess different charisma, and allow you seeing different charisma of Lee Min Ho in the drama. In future I would like to challenge new characters, showing the changes in my acting and portrait different images.
Q: Any effect on your daily life after being famous?
L: I have acted in many projects, at that time I acted in those projects as a rookie. That was my anonymous period, not many peope recognize me, and I have more freedom. during that time I have thought about if I could live that freely in future. After BOF, many recognize me. I have to be more careful about my behaviour at working occasion. My personal life has drastic change.
Q: Have you watched the other 2 versions of “Domyoji” (Goo Jun Pyo)?
L: I haven’t watched the entire series of Japan nor Taiwan versions. I have only watched the first few episodes. I think both of them have outstanding acting skills. They portraited the role of “Domyoji” very well, showing the very annoying, dictative & arrogant character and at the same time expressed the nobleness of a chaebol. I have also made reference to their acting. Before filming, I was thinking how I should prepare for this character, to show the arrogance and other charisma of Goo Jun Pyo.
Q: How did you overcome the challenges in City Hunter?
L: I have had special training before City Hunter started filming. I attended around 3 classes or more a week at action school, to familiarize with the actions. I have to feel like I am one who know Kung Fu, thus this would be more natural in handling the action scenes in the drama. I feel a bit regret was that if I could have training for more than 6 months, then I might do it more perfectly when filming.
Q: Will City Hunter has a sequel or movie version?
L: It is rare for Korean drama to have a sequel. If the script has new creative for the character, or if there is a good storyline, in fact it is a good idea and I’m willing to challenge if given a chance.
Q: Which character is the most satisfied one?
L: all the characers I have played were very unique roles, and they are creations through my hard work, I like them all. Nonetheless City Hunter is the most recent one, and the role of Lee Yoon Sung still occupies a place in my heart.
Q: How is Lee Min Ho in daily life?
L: Usually I dress casually yet tidy and have an easygoing personality. Since I am an actor and also an ordinary guy Lee Min Ho, thus both images combined together.
Q: How do you releive your pressure usually?
L: I don’t have any particular skill or method to relieve pressure. Sometime I would drive around, or go to a nice restaurant which is far away to have a good meal.
Q: Any Chinese actor whom you want to work with?
L: Tony Leung Chiu-wai and Andy Lau Tak-wah are the ones I quite admire. Tang Wei has visited Korea alot recently, and Korean likes her. I also hope that we would have opportunity to work together.

Lee Min Ho Interview with Music Chart
Lee Min Ho conducted an interview with “Music Chart” on the 4th in a hotel in Beijing. The program host Da Zuo, who is in similar age as MinHo had a great time during the interview.
Lee Min Ho was asked about the impression of Chinese fans. He said that enthusiasm is the most impressive feature of Chinese fans. He can feel that not only through Weibo, but he’s also moved by the fans when he visited China. Da Zuo jokingly said that fans should show their most passionate side to impress MinHo. Upon listen to the interpretation by translator, Min Ho expressed that he liked passionate fans, but safety is the more important.
Goo Jun Pyo in BOF was an arrogant chaebol, who is dictorial and unreasonable, in which is very contradictory to Lee Min Ho’s own image. Da Zuo asked Min Ho how did he created that character. Min Ho said that it was difficult at the beginning, thus he started to live in the role of GJP few months before the drama started filming. As a result he always had arguments with staff and his manager. He even used that as an excuse to start a fight with his manager when he’s not in good mood.
Da Zuo suggested that Min Ho should choose similar role in future so that he can use that as an excuse all the time. Min Ho said it’s a good idea, but still he’s worried that his friends would feel offended.
At the end of the interview, Da Zuo taught Min Ho to say in Chinese: “Chinese girls are pretty, I like them very much” ( “中国女孩很漂亮，我很喜欢！”). Min Ho followed the pronounciation and learnt that fast before he knew what’s that mean. Then translator told Min Ho that that’s a love confession to Chinese fans, Min Ho just smiled and accepted that.

Lee Min Ho's exclusive interview with Shanghai Youth Daily
独家专访“长腿哥哥” 李敏镐赞志玲最美
Exclusive Interview with “Long-leg Oppa”Lee Min Ho praises ZhiLing the most beautiful
嘴里含着糖，一边笑着聊天，还时不时地做出吐舌头等各种可爱搞怪的表情……凭借韩剧《城市猎人》 而爆红的韩星李敏镐，今晚将在上海长宁国际体操中心举行2011巡回见面会第一站。昨日，在上海的一家五星级酒店房间里，李敏镐和本报记者面对面独家对 话，并坦言想和心目中“最美”的林志玲合作。本报记者 林艳雯
Chit-chatting cheerfully with a candy in his mouth, and from time to time he would show a variety of cute expressions like sticking out his tongue… Korean star Lee Min Ho, who becomes extremely popular through Kdrama “City Hunter”, will hold the first FM of his Asia tour 2011 in Shanghai International Gymnastic Center. Yesterday an exclusive interview was conducted with Lee Min Ho in a 5-star hotel room in Shanghai. He confesses that he would like to work with Lin Zhiling, who is “the most beautiful” in his heart. (Reporter Lin Yanwen)
首次来上海，想坐轮船游黄浦江
Visiting Shanghai for the first time, want to take a boat tour in Huangpu River
青年报（以下简称“青”）：前一天晚上就到上海了，第一次来，对上海什么印象？
Youth Daily (YD hereafter): arrived in Shanghai last night, what is your impression about Shanghai for first time visit?
李敏镐（以下简称“李”）：首先是在机场感受到粉丝们的热情，很多粉丝来接机，大概有三四百个，大家的热情让我很感动。
Lee Min Ho (LMH hereafter): Firstly, I can feel the enthusiasm of fans at the airport. Many of them, around 300-400 people, welcome me. I am very touched by their passion.
青：之前对上海有了解吗？想去哪里玩呢？
YD: Do you know anything about Shanghai? Any places you want to visit?
李：真的很想去逛一下夜景。因为我住的酒店房间就能看到黄浦江，昨晚也看到轮船了，很想坐着船夜游。
LMH: Really want to go sightseeing of the night view. Since I can see Huangpu River from my hotel room, I can also see the ferries. I really want to take a boat trip at nighttime
青：小吃呢？上海的小吃也是非常有名的，有特别想吃的吗？晚饭吃了什么？
YD: How about food? Foods in Shanghai is popular, anything particular you want to try? What did you have for dinner?
李：其实飞机刚落地之后，就去吃了一顿上海菜，觉得味道非常好，但是时间太短了，很多小吃没来得及吃，我怕这几天的时候也不够吃个遍。（转而调皮地问记者，“有没有什么小吃可以推荐的？”）
LMH: Actually I had a meal in Shanghai cuisine upon arrival. It’s very delicious. But time is too short; there are many snacks that I haven’t tried. I am afraid there won’t be enough time for me to try them all . (He then playfully asked the reporter if she had any recommendation)
美丽女演员，第一个想起林志玲
Beautiful Actress, Lin Zhiling is the first come into mind
青：想进军中国市场，演中国电影吗？
YD: Do you want to act in Chinese movie and enter the China market?
李：其实我看过很多中国的电影，从小就特别喜欢看，尤其是很多港片，包括《英雄本色》、《无间道》，都是我很喜欢的，中国的电影，只要有机会和邀请，我都愿意演。
LMH: On fact I have watched many Chinese movies. I like to watch them since I were young, especially a lot of Hong Kong films, “A better tomorrow”, “Infernal Affairs” are the ones I love. For Chinese film, if there is a chance and invitation, I am willing to try.
青：越来越多的中国女演员在日韩很受欢迎，汤唯也出席了不久前的韩国青龙奖颁奖礼，你印象最深的、或者认为最美的女演员是谁？
YD: There are more Chinese actresses becoming popular in Japan & Korea. Tang Wei also attended the Blue Dragon Awards recently. Which actress is the most impressive/ the most beautiful in your mind?
李：如果说想合作的话，梁朝伟和刘德华都是我想要合作的，包括汤唯也是，上次刚见过。现在问我哪个女演员（最美）……林志玲挺美的。
LMH: If talking about the ones I want to work with, Tony Leung Chiu-wai & Andy Lau Tak-wah are the ones. And also Tang Wei, whom I have met. Now you asked about the beautiful actress… Lin Zhiling is beautiful.
青：现在越来越多的韩国演员到中国来发展，你觉得那么多韩国男星中，自己最大的优势和优点在哪里呢？大家都叫你“长腿哥哥”，你觉得腿长和身材比例是你的优势吗？
YD: There are more & more Korean actor develop their career in China. What do you think are your biggest strengths and advantages? Everyone calls you “long-leg oppa”, do you think you long legs & body is an advantage?
李：（害羞地笑了几秒钟后）个子高也算是生下来的福分吧，因为我父母个子也很高，其实现在韩国女孩也喜欢高个子的。大家放心，为了粉丝们我会一直努力健身，保持好身材的。至于优势，我觉得自己是个热衷于专注角色创作的人。
LMH: (smile for a few seconds shyly) It’s a blessing from god to have a tall body, since my parents are tall as well. Actually girls in Korea also like tall guys. No worry, I will continue to exercise and keep my body shape for my fans. For advantages, I think I am a person who is keen to focus on creating character.
性格很开朗，爱情也会主动出击
Very outgoing personality, will take initiation for love
青：《城市猎人》让更多的中国影迷喜欢上了你，你给自己打几分呢？
YD: “City Hunter” makes more Chinese fans fell in love with you, how do you rate your performance?
李：其实每次我演完一部戏都没给自己打过高分，基本都在50分以下，但每次观众的喜爱都超过了我的预期。说实话我对自己的演技有很多不满意的地方，比如《城市猎人》开拍前我经过了几个月的专业打斗训练，如果给我六个月或更长时间，应该会打得更好。
LMH: Actually I have never rated myself a high marks after every project, basically all are below 50. But every time the love from audience is more than I expected. Frankly speaking, I am not very satisfied with my acting in many aspects. For example, for the fight scenes in City Hunter, I have received training for a few months, but I think I can do much better if I can be trained for 6 months or more
青：演了那么多角色，哪个和你自己最接近？感情方面喜欢怎样的女生?
YD: among all the characters you have played, which is the closest to your true self? Which type of girl you like?
李：我觉得角色和我本人是很互补的，每个角色都会有百分之五十的相像，比如《城市猎人》里面的李润成，我觉得自己和他比较相似的一面是开朗乐观，又喜欢独立思考想事情。不过，感情上我并不会像那个角色那样，喜欢一个人就会主动问她“你爱我吗”。
LMH: I think the character and my true self are complementary; every role would have 50% look alike. Such as City Hunter’s Lee Yoon Sung, I think we are alike on the side of his optimistic, cheerful and think independently; but regarding the side about love, I would not like the role I played. I would take the initiation to say “do you love me” if I love someone

Lee Min Ho's Fanmeeting in Shanghai caused overcrowding and traffic
Actor Lee Min Ho recently visited China and the Chinese media reported on November 30th, “Lee Minho was in Shanghai for a fan meet and his fans overcrowded each location he traveled to.”
There were reportedly about 1,000 fans that awaited his arrival at the airport, despite the fact that his landing time was quite early in the morning. As soon as he stepped out of the gate, the fans held up their signs and cards, and the airport was suddenly filled with the cries and shouts of the many fangirls.
The actor was escorted out of the airport by airport security to his car. He looked happy despite the traffic his fans were causing, and waved to them with a smile, thanking them for waiting so long to see him.
But it wasn’t just at the airport. There were a crowd of fans that awaited him in front of his hotel. Lee Minho went up to his room to change and quickly stepped out again to head to his next destination. There was a throng of girls surrounding his car, but he managed to climb in after greeting the fans with a wave of his hand.
Lee Minho will be holding a fan meet tour in China, traveling to Beijing as well as Shanghai, Hong Kong, and more.

The promotional spread for actor Lee Min Ho’s fan meeting tour, produced in collaboration with Chinese media corporation Huayi Brothers, has finally been revealed.
The words ‘Korea’s popular pin-up actor Lee Min Ho’ are splashed across the photo that features a smiling Lee.

A representative from Huayi Brothers said, “We shot hundreds of photos capturing the many sides of Lee Min Ho for fans, and this was the photo we chose for the spread.”Lee will embark on his four-city fan meeting tour in December, where he plans to sing and dance for his fans. In an interview he was quoted as saying, “I invited a vocal trainer as well as a dance trainer and rehearsed intensely.” He added, “Although I’m not very flexible, I’m working really hard. I’m excited.”The actor, who has amassed more than two million fans, has enjoyed great popularity because of his appearance inCity Hunter, which went off the air in July.

The event once again brought evidence that Lee Min Ho appeals to various age brackets. Cries of cheers rose unceasingly wherever he went, be it the Ulsan airport where he arrived, or the shopping mall itself that was crowded with people who wanted to catch a glimpse of him.
In addition, a separate opportunity was arranged for a handicapped fan to have a photo with him, as well as an autograph, and this warm-hearted gesture moved his fans.
Lee Min Ho who is meeting his fans after a long time since SBS drama ‘city hunter’ showed off a stylish airport fashion sense at the Ulsan Airport.

“Where are the young men?” — TV drama production companies’ outcry
Song Joong Ki, Yoo Ah In, Lee Min Ho — actively participating in moviesDrama production companies experiencing shortage of actors in their 20sThe movies are experiencing a bountiful year but the drama world is undergoing a terrible drought.TV prime time dramas are having serious trouble finding actors in their 20s. Amidst the general shortage of actors in their 20s in the entertainment field, most of the young stars who have risen to stardom are all turning their sights to movies, leaving dramas that are to be broadcasted next year to undergo repeated casting difficulties.The representative young actors in their 20s who have risen to take on main lead roles include Yoo Ah In, Jang Geun Suk, Song Joong Ki, Lee Min Ho, etc, can be counted with five fingers, evidencing the sparsity of them. Having taken on leading roles and having heightened profiles, they are more interested in movies, where the schedule is more easily amendable compared to dramas.Song Joong Ki who have hit ceiling high in popularity due to the drama “Deep Rooted Tree” will be commencing filming his new movie ‘Wolf Boy’ in December. Yoo Ah In, who’s riding on the popularity of his movie ‘Wan Deuki’ is not putting his eyes on dramas, but is currently reviewing scripts for movies. Lee Min Ho, who recently appeared in the drama ‘City Hunter’ is also examining several movie scripts, and plans to advance towards movies next year.Given such conditions, it’s no wonder that drama production companies are having a hard time selecting leads for next year’s dramas. MBC’s ‘Moon that conceals the sun’ and ‘Absolute Boyfriend’, KBS 2TV’s ‘Doll mask’, SBS ‘Dae-Poong-Su’ and other dramas are mostly facing the same problem.Although ‘Moon that conceals the sun’ has already found its main male lead in the form of Kim Su Hyun, they still haven’t found the other male lead who will purportedly carry the same weight of importance as the main male lead.A representative from a drama production company who is currently preparing for a ~3 million USD drama next year revealed “actors in their 20s are few to start out with, being able to find a suitable actor and go all the way to clinch the deal is similar to walking on thin ice.”

All About Hallyu Star Meetings
Looking at hallyu star fan meetings through Lee Min Hofrom instrumental performance to speaking the local languageJang geun seuk, Park shi hoo etc show magic performance, martial arts performance‘It’s not a simple meeting anymore but more of a project!’Hallyu star fan meetings are gradually undergoing an evolution. It’s no longer a simple event where you get to shake hands and have a simple talking session. Recently, various stages have been invented and has become yet another hallyu commodity.
Lee Min Ho who has garnered high popularity in the chinese speaking regions is one case in point. He is currently preparing for ten large-scale fan meeting stages to be held from early Dec up til early next year in china, taiwan, hong kong and other places. Not all the locations and dates for the fan meetings have been decided on, but he is currently practicing hard to show an ‘upgraded’ (improved) side to himself.Firstly, the concept for the fan meeting this time will be using a story-telling format guided by a single theme/topic. Due to this reason, Lee Min Ho is receiving private lessons to improve his chinese so he will not be limited to just conveying simple greetings but will be able to converse with fans to a certain extent.One thing that can’t be omitted from fan meetings are songs. ???????. Lee Min Ho has been receiving lessons from a popular singer’s vocal trainer since last month. This is amongst the other activities he’s elaborately preparing for.He also plans to show off his instrumental skills for the first time and is currently learning the instrument. However he’s not revealing the specifics of the instrument nor the song he’s preparing since it is to be a ‘surprise event’.It was also revealed that there are other things that he’s preparing for the fan meetings but the details are kept secret. This is because they/he is worried that prior revelation would dampen the anticipation of fans.Besides Lee Min Ho, other stars such as Ryu shi won, Jang geun suk, Kim hyun joong, Hyun bin, Park shi hoo, etc are including events such as cooking, magic, martial arts in their respective fan meetings.Lee Min Ho’s management company, Starhaus Entertainment explained “Local fans won’t be satisfied by just seeing his face at fan meetings. Also, we shouldn’t inculcate the impression that we’ve come merely to earn a profit, so (MH’s) doing his best so that he can present an image different from his previous one (to his fans).”

Lee Min Ho's Chinese debut postponed until December
Sorry Lee Min Ho fans. You′re going to have to wait a little bit longer to see Lee promoting in China – the new hallyu star has pushed back the date of his official debut in China by over three months, in order to prepare more.
Lee received many requests from the Chinese-speaking world as soon as SBS’sCity Hunter wrapped up in the country in August, but he put off his official visit to China until December.
Lee visited China in September to shoot an advertorial and promote, but left local fans wanting more, as it was a short trip strictly for advertising promotions, not to meet fans and talk about an actual debut.
A representative from Lee’s agency Starhaus Entertainment stated, “We have to prepare [for his debut in China] in various ways since people in the Chinese-speaking world are showing their enthusiastic interest in Lee. We think his visit should be designed for interactive and amicable fan meeting, not as a chance to make profit. To this end, Lee is preparing himself, by improving singing skills, learning about Chinese culture and studying Chinese. Further, he is planning for charity activities in which his fans can participate. That’s why it’s taking a longer time.”
Lee’s fan meeting will kick off in Shanghai on December 1 and go on to Nanjing on December 3, Beijing (December 5), and Xiamen (December 7).
On Weibo, China′s Twitter equivalent, the number of Lee’s fans reached a 2 million-mark.
Lee posted his message along with his photo on his Weibo on November 6, “I’ve got already these many friends on Weibo. Thank you for your affection. Your writings to apply for our events are funnier and easier to understand since there are pictures as well. We’ll see in December.”
Lee has been treating as an A-list hallyu star in the Chinese advertisement industry as he signed a deal with Hyundai, China and an exclusive contract with China’s largest casual wear brand, Semir.

November 6,2011
Hello Minoz,
I’m Lee Min Ho. It’s been a long time, how are you doing?
Although there were problems logging in because the website undergone renovation, I can log in now. haha.
Recently, I’m spending my days learning many different things and preparing myself. One of the things amongst them is preparing for the fan meeting in Shanghai, Beijing, Nanking, Xiamen and Hong Kong come early December, attending meetings for them. Since there are various things to prepare for, it keeps me busy. (laugh)
It seems like I’ll be able to show you a new song through this fan meeting. haha.
Now, I’m discussing it with the songwriter hyung as we prepare for the song. Since it’s a song for my fans, I hope those who aren’t able to attend the event will get to listen to the song.
Also, I play football with my friends during the weekend, and personally feel how my stamina isn’t as good as it was. haha. It’s true that exercise is something you have to do regularly. Please don’t just stay in the house saying it is cold. When the weather’s good, I highly recommend you to try exercising. ha
Today is a little chilly…
Not long ago, I filmed for Cantata. It has been a while since I filmed through the night. You will get to see the ad in a little while on TV~ For now, I’ll first show you the pictures.
Take care and don’t catch a cold~
Til the day we meet, always be happy~

Lee Min Ho leading the way in China:
"He's even more popular than
Jang Geun Suk"
China fell for Lee Min Ho, while Japan for Jang Keun Suk. Each of their popularity show distinguished features in different countries, but certainly they are booming Korean Wave.
On the 15th China’s most popular social network, Weibo, made a survey comparing Jang Keun Suk and Lee Min Ho’s appearance. It said, “Which one is better looking? Jang Keun Suk from Mary Stayed Out All Night or Lee Min Ho from City Hunter?”
The result was interesting: Lee Min Ho earned 6,768 votes with a 69% approval rating while Jang Keun Suk only got 1,664 votes comparatively.
Another survey, which involves more Korean stars such as Kim Hee Chul, Kim Hyun Joong, Lee Hong Ki, and Jang Keun Suk, also showed Lee Min Ho the best looking guy with the approval rating of 35%.
This kind of survey initially involved only Chinese stars, but recently Korean stars are listed on it.
Certainly, it is hard to conclude the best looking guy on such a survey, however, it shows Lee Min Ho’s popularity through the series City Hunter in China.
The drama series City Hunter got nearly 200 million hits on Chinese video website.
Jang Geun-seok, “Where are the eels that went to Lee Min-ho?”
Jang Geun-seok showed off his cute hair style.
He posted a picture on Chinese twitter weibo with words ” All the eels went to Lee min ho just because I didn’t visit in a while! Where are you~ Let’s go together~ My eels…I will find you!!!”
In the picture, he is looking at the camera innocently and in the other, he is winking.
Those who have seen the picture say, “If you come more often we won’t go to lee min ho”, “Are you jealous?”, ” Your hairstyle is really cute” and such.
