Lee Byung Hun Draws Crowds of Fans in Japan

Captures from 47news.jp VOD ^^

Actor Lee Byung-hun has been visited by more than 2,000 Japanese fans nearly every day during his stay in Akita Prefecture, Japan to shoot his new drama “IRIS,” his agency BH Entertainment said.

“We kept the shooting locations secret, so only some key staff knew about them. It was surprising how the Japanese fans found out where the shooting was taking place, and as many as approximately 2,500 fans came to a shooting site to see Lee every day,” the agency said. “The Akita Prefecture government had police and security guards stationed for emergencies, but no regrettable incidents happened.”

Since the Korean actor arrived on March 9, the Japanese prefecture has seen many of his fans pour into the area from all over the country, filling up all hotels and motels although it is the off season, according to the agency. “Some 300 fans were even waiting for Lee at the hotel where he was staying from morning until evening.

This Guy with Such Love

Thanks to the gist by Janice at EverythingLBH-soompi.com from highlight at Japanese fan-blog EverydayLBH, originally at nylonmedia.co.kr and 10Asia online magazine. Also shared at GBW-cafe.daum

FIVE GUYS – Best Melodramatic Actors

A fan comparison on each of the following actor’s unique and sophisticated acting style… Park Shin Yang, Lee Seon Gyun, Hyun Bin, Lee Byung Hun & Yoo Ji Tae

Related excerpt on Byunghun-ssi only
Ah… Love… can simply be expressed in more than 50,000 ways… from innocent, mature to sophisticated,etc
Love can also be generated through voices & eyes contact… such expression can easily be spotted in actor Lee Byung Hun and.. it’s definitely worth emulating
Those pair of window-of-the-soul aka piercing eyes of his could so easily stir or throb a woman’s heart and… that sexy low tone voice of his is just way too poisonous… and no doubt those are great asset to his acting skills.
From his first romancing acting in Bungee Jumping of Their Own… to his dorky inflatuation towards the lady teacher in Harmonium in My Memory… to his everlasting love  in Once in a Summer etc, Byunghun has never failed to capture the true essence of love.
Lee Byung Hun is one great example of a very dynamic, confident & classic actor who is able to transform into any character requires of him.
At times one couldn’t really tell which is which, the real LBH or the reel LBH.. and that in itself is a great mystery Continue reading ‘This Guy with Such Love’

Lee ByungHun – no schedule conflict

coming200903190105240

According to the latest news, BH Entertainment told media on March 19 that LBH’s movies & drama schedule will not clash despite a number of major projects and activities he’s committed to.

They said they have already foreseen the schedule dilemma that Byunghun-ssi might encounter even before filming IRIS and have been working very hard to negotiate with the production team to adjust the schedule so that BH could attend the movie events of ‘I Come With The Rain’ in June and ‘GI Joe: Rise of Cobra’ in August, respectively plus the related activities. They recalled the very tight schedule LBH has had last May while filming ‘GI Joe’ in Prague and had to squeeze out time in between filming to attend the Cannes Red Carpet event for movie ‘The Good, The Bad, the Weird’.

The article also stated that Continue reading ‘Plan Forward’

What kind of life is most perfect in Lee Byung Hun’s opinion?


"I think no one will term their life as being perfect, but, we must learn to be content." As there is nothing that anyone can hold on to indefinitely, including happiness; therefore, possessing an optimistic outlook and attitude is very important; one must constantly remind oneself, "I am very happy."
