MANILA, Philippines -- The charisma of Korean pop star Kim Hyun Joong among his Filipino fans was best exemplified by the presence of die-hards whose ages range from five to almost 75.
During the presscon held Thursday afternoon at the Mindoro Room of Edsa Shangri-La Hotel, the visiting international celebrity was greeted by a horde of reporters and fans who generally kept their cameras clicking while he answered queries from local media.
“Thank you for all the love you’re having toward me,” he told the audience.
One 74-year-old fan spoke to the occasion’s host and professed her admiration for the Korean actor-singer, even cracking a half-meant joke, “Lahat ng albums niya binili ko. Brief na lang niya ang di ko pa binibili!” she exclaimed.
Best known for being the leader of the K-pop boyband SS501 and playing “Ji Hoo” in the hit drama series “Boys Over Flowers,” Kim dropped by Manila to promote his debut solo album “Break Down” and attend the “High Five Touch” event at Trinoma, also last Thursday. His album is released by Polyeast Records.
He continued, “I was involved in all the processes of the album, from the lyrics to the jacket.”
The multi-talented matinee idol reiterated his focus on things he is good at. Singing and acting are of equal footing to him.
“If I’m on stage, my energy is burning every time I get in contact with the fans,” he pointed out.
When asked of his dream role as actor, he noted via the interpreter, “I want to play a character with full of charisma.”
The irony is, he need not role-play that since he himself is a very charismatic man on and off camera.
