Lee Min-ho Turns into a Rock Star for Fans
Lee’s fan meeting was in the form of a concert, where he performed all seven songs from his first album “My Everything,” live with a band and chorus. His fans were able to see new and different sides to him through them, plus the Q&A sessions in between performances through which Lee candidly shared his personal details.
When the curtains were first raised, Lee, in a white tux, sang his title ballad song also named “My Everything.” His voice was delicate and pleasant though shaky at times. But it was a priceless experience for fans given that he temporarily switched to a different specialty just for them.
The actor then jumped on a bicycle for his second song “You & I” which was like watching a scene from the movie “Mary Poppins.” It depicted on the fluttering heart of a man who is on his way to meet his girlfriend.
He also introduced fans to his new hobby called ‘speedminton’ that he came across in Germany, showing on stage how it is played.
Towards the end, Lee said, “I will light the fire of affection for me through my new drama “The Heirs” [tentative title]. I hope today’s fan meeting was treasurable and that you keep in mind that I am always thinking of you because you always give me strength.”
For the final performance, the actor wore a t-shirt that made him look like a perky teenager. Fans seemed sad to say good-bye but the song’s fast beat and Lee’s hip-shaking moves kept them in high spirits. Lee marked the end of the two-hour fan meeting by blowing kisses and saying that he will miss his fans.

Lee Min Ho held a fan meeting concert after releasing his first album 'My Everything'.
Actor Lee Min Ho met his fans on the global tour in Seoul 'My Everything' which was held at Kyung Hee University's grand peace palace on May 25th. It has been 2 years since he held a fan meeting in Seoul.
At a press conference held before the show Lee Min Ho said he was unable to have a fan meeting last year because of shooting drama Faith. He is very excited and really looking forward to meeting his fans.
On The Global tour in Seoul, not only Korean fans but also fans from Asia and Europe, generation from all different age group were there to enjoy. The fans could not hide their joy and emotions.
The opening songs were 'My Everything' and 'You and I and we (You & I)'. When singing his first song 'My Everything' he appeared on the middle of the stage with wearing a white color jacket giving a very romantic performance. On the next song 'You and I and we (You & I)' he rode a stationary bike acting as if he is on the way to meet his girl friend. It seemed like a musical which made the number very unique. The songs were followed by an interview host by comedian Byun Ki Soo. On Q&A time called 'Intimate Profile' he showed his humor and became a boy next door? ^^
When asked about his first drinking experience he said it was when he was in middle school. He was so drunk he could not stand up when his friend's father came back home. His friend's dad gave him money for cab but he took the bus and spent the money for snack. Next question was where he cleans first in the shower.. He said top to bottom.
What is your favorite coffee? He said he likes iced cafe mocha and sometimes he drinks iced chocolate when he is in a bad mood. He stated that he doesn't like bitter coffee, which gives him an image of a sweet guy. ^^ When asked about his character. "Optimistic and positive and nice, mellow, dislike cucumber and sometimes do have temper," because of self-praising the entire audience started to laugh.
Lee Min Ho had a lot of friends from different field sending
congratulations. Actor Jung Il Woo sent a congratulatory message in the
video "Please stay in the notes when you sing." He said "The singing is
okay, but horrible dancer," best friend tells all. Also actor Lee Kwang
Soo, Kim Sang Jung, Jeong Seong Hwa have sent congratulatory messages.
Lee Min Ho said the favorite song on the album is 'Pieces of Love' and sang the song with his sweet voice melting all the lady fans then, when performing cheerful beat songs 'Love Motion' and 'My Little Princess' he had a cute dance number making all the fans heat up.
After finishing the dance number he said "This is too much for me I am so out of breath." he drank water and said "But still I feel excited because of the beat." Lee Min Ho was enjoying himself on stage

Lee Min Ho always put others first. He would help the staffs and offer drinks to them. Host Byun Ki Soo said "I've been hosting a lot of fan meeting but Lee Min Ho was the first to offer drinks." He was deeply moved.
There was something very remarkable about this fan meeting. How many actors in his 20's would have a mother and daughter fans attending together. Surely, Lee Min Ho's 'My Everything' did. Lee Min Ho has proved his charm goes over generations and cross the borders.
Lee Min Ho is scheduled to also perform in Japan, Malaysia, Taiwan, Philippines, Hong Kong and many other cities.

Lee Min Ho was able to reunite with his fans in Korea for the first time in two years at his recent concert.
The actor′s My Everything concert was held in Seoul on May 25, marking the start of his Asia tour. He plans to continue on through Japan, Malaysia, Taiwan, the Philippines, Hong Kong and more for a total of seven cities, and talks are currently in progress for more stops at five or six more countries.
The concert was especially meaningful as it included a fanmeeting, making up for the previous year in which Lee Min Ho didn′t get to meet his fans due to his shoots for Faith.
In the press conference held before the concert, Lee Min Ho said, "I should′ve met [with my fans] sooner, but I wasn′t able to because I was busy shooting the drama Faith. I′m looking forward to meeting my fans for the first time in a while. I want to show how happy I am through my performances."
Lee Min Ho has especially been working hard for his fans, even releasing his own album My Everything. The album was produced to help Lee Min Ho and his fans share precious times together and repay fans for their love toward the actor.
The actor performed tracks from My Everything for the first time at the concert this day. He started off with My Everything, then went on to sing You & I, Love Motion and Pieces of Love, at times driving fans into a frenzy and at others getting them to cry along to his voice.
A live band accompanied him, helping the actor′s vocals shine like a real singer′s.
Many fan events then took place outside of the splendid performances under the lead of comedian Byun Ki Soo. One fan, from Gangwon-do, was chosen to go onstage for a photo with Lee Min Ho himself.
"I′ve been a fan of Mr. Lee Min Ho since Boys Over Flowers. I was here for his last fanmeeting, and I′m so happy I′ll get to take a picture with him. I hope to see more good feats from you," she said.
4,000 fans from around the world gathered this day for the concert.

Lee Min-ho Turns into a Rock Star for Fans
Lee’s fan meeting was in the form of a concert, where he performed all seven songs from his first album “My Everything,” live with a band and chorus. His fans were able to see new and different sides to him through them, plus the Q&A sessions in between performances through which Lee candidly shared his personal details.
When the curtains were first raised, Lee, in a white tux, sang his title ballad song also named “My Everything.” His voice was delicate and pleasant though shaky at times. But it was a priceless experience for fans given that he temporarily switched to a different specialty just for them.
The actor then jumped on a bicycle for his second song “You & I” which was like watching a scene from the movie “Mary Poppins.” It depicted on the fluttering heart of a man who is on his way to meet his girlfriend.
He also introduced fans to his new hobby called ‘speedminton’ that he came across in Germany, showing on stage how it is played.
Towards the end, Lee said, “I will light the fire of affection for me through my new drama “The Heirs” [tentative title]. I hope today’s fan meeting was treasurable and that you keep in mind that I am always thinking of you because you always give me strength.”
For the final performance, the actor wore a t-shirt that made him look like a perky teenager. Fans seemed sad to say good-bye but the song’s fast beat and Lee’s hip-shaking moves kept them in high spirits. Lee marked the end of the two-hour fan meeting by blowing kisses and saying that he will miss his fans.

Lee Min Ho Sings Before 4,000 Fans at His Concert and Fanmeeting
CJ E&M enewsWorld Ko Hong Ju
Translation Credit : Erika Kim
Lee Min Ho was able to reunite with his fans in Korea for the first time in two years at his recent concert.
The actor′s My Everything concert was held in Seoul on May 25, marking the start of his Asia tour. He plans to continue on through Japan, Malaysia, Taiwan, the Philippines, Hong Kong and more for a total of seven cities, and talks are currently in progress for more stops at five or six more countries.
The concert was especially meaningful as it included a fanmeeting, making up for the previous year in which Lee Min Ho didn′t get to meet his fans due to his shoots for Faith.
In the press conference held before the concert, Lee Min Ho said, "I should′ve met [with my fans] sooner, but I wasn′t able to because I was busy shooting the drama Faith. I′m looking forward to meeting my fans for the first time in a while. I want to show how happy I am through my performances."
Lee Min Ho has especially been working hard for his fans, even releasing his own album My Everything. The album was produced to help Lee Min Ho and his fans share precious times together and repay fans for their love toward the actor.
The actor performed tracks from My Everything for the first time at the concert this day. He started off with My Everything, then went on to sing You & I, Love Motion and Pieces of Love, at times driving fans into a frenzy and at others getting them to cry along to his voice.
A live band accompanied him, helping the actor′s vocals shine like a real singer′s.
Many fan events then took place outside of the splendid performances under the lead of comedian Byun Ki Soo. One fan, from Gangwon-do, was chosen to go onstage for a photo with Lee Min Ho himself.
"I′ve been a fan of Mr. Lee Min Ho since Boys Over Flowers. I was here for his last fanmeeting, and I′m so happy I′ll get to take a picture with him. I hope to see more good feats from you," she said.
4,000 fans from around the world gathered this day for the concert.
