Lee Min-ho, a beloved Korean actor worldwide who has maintained solid popularity for 12 years, proved his brand name by perfectly completing a fan meeting prepared for the first time in 8 years in seven major Asian cities.
Lee Min-ho's Asia fan meeting tour "2025 LEE MINHO ASIA FANMEETING TOUR 'MINHOVERSE'" started in Seoul on March 8 and will cover a total of 8 fan meetings in seven major Asian cities, including Bangkok on March 22, Macau on March 29, Taipei on April 4, Jakarta on April 19, Manila on April 26, and Tokyo on May 5-6, over a period of about two months.
This fan meeting became a special event that excited fans worldwide, uniting the global "Minos (Lee Min-ho fan club)" as a large-scale Asia event held approximately 8 years after 2017. Lee Min-ho, meeting fans in major Asian cities, received warm welcomes everywhere and reaffirmed that he is indeed a beloved Hallyu actor worldwide.
Opening the fan meeting with the songs "As We Were" or "Gift" depending on the characteristics of each city and the preferences of the fans, Lee Min-ho showed his sweet side by checking on the Minos throughout Asia with a kind tone and bright smile, while also capturing attention with heartfelt responses to fan questions he had received in advance.
Lee Min-ho recalled the food he ate in each country and shared heartwarming remarks that thrilled local fans. Notably, during team event activities enjoyed with the local audience, he held a parade showcasing popular scenes from well-loved characters in popular works from the area, embarking on a nostalgic journey to the past.
In games where fans were drawn to participate on the spot, new segments were prepared in each country, elevating audience excitement to its peak and garnering explosive responses. In Bangkok, there were games like the Unity Game, Bottle Flipping, and Charades, while in Macau, the response was lively with Catch My Mind and one-on-one Eye Battle. Taipei featured games such as Air Play and Arm Wrestling, Jakarta hosted an O.S.T game and upgraded Rock-Paper-Scissors, and Manila enjoyed Tumbang Preso and Balloon Burst. The second round in Tokyo featured the upgraded Daruma Otoshi, with careful preparations that brought joy and emotion to each city.
Especially since the name of this fan meeting is a combination of Lee Min-ho's name "MINHO" and the word "UNIVERSE," symbolizing his desire to glide through a specially created space with fans, known as "Lee Min-ho's world, universe" or "MINHOVERSE," it also offered warm considerations through finely crafted segments uniting fans across Asia.
Above all, starting with the song "Without You" sung anew after 12 years, followed by "Stalker," which showcased his transformation into a rocker, and emotional events for fans like "Be My Last Love," "Always," and "Good night, sweet dreams," he prepared a diverse repertoire for each song and perfectly concluded the "MINHOVERSE MAP" amid overwhelming emotion.
Meeting fans across Asia, Lee Min-ho expressed, "Thank you for always being there. It feels like I am becoming stronger as a person and an actor because of Minos. Let’s meet for a long time. Thank you," sharing his heartfelt impressions.
With the fan meeting held after 8 years bringing unique emotions, Lee Min-ho maintained his top position as the most preferred Korean actor worldwide for 12 consecutive years in the '2025 Overseas Hallyu Survey' (based on 2024), and is expected to meet audiences through his upcoming film "All Access Memories" set to be released in July.
