Kim Jae-wook sells out Tokyo fanmeeting

Speaking of fanmeetings in Japan, Coffee Prince and Antique Bakery pretty boy Kim Jae-wook has sold out his within a week of tickets going on sale. (Given the popularity of those two projects and Kim’s pretty face — and his fluency in Japanese — this is no surprise. This is not his first Japanese event; he held his first fanmeeting there a year ago.) Kim’s event, titled “Love Story,” will be held in Tokyo on November 8 to a crowd of 1,200.

In contrast to most fanmeetings, in which many actors sing a few songs for their audience, this one will have a stronger emphasis on the performance portion. Kim is a musician himself (he sings and plays guitar) as a member of his own modern-rock band, Walrus. Prior to his fanmeeting, he and Walrus will give their very first concert at the big indie and rock festival Grand Mint Festival (October 24-25), for which he is also a promotional rep.

Kim Jae-wook said, “Because I lived here when I was younger, Tokyo is a special city to me. Thinking of meeting fans here gives me an indescribable feeling.”

I remeber when I first watched him on Coffee Prince, I thought he was actually Japanese. I was surprised to see he is actually Korean.

I loved him in Coffee Prince & Antique Bakery.
I'm a big fan of him & his acting, I wish I could be there. Too bad i live way to far away from Japan. Congrats to him for selling out the show & to all of the lucky fans who will get to see him in person.

Oooo, here's another hottie potential I'm diggin. Just shows you don't need endless projects to be recognized, but brilliant works to be remembered by - can't wait for his future productions.

I didn't know about his musical talents - love indie-rock. Thanks for sharing, wonderful as always.

@6 Yoo Jin: Perfect words to describe him in "Antique"!

Love him! Although I did literally *gasp* and *gasp* seeing that he cut all his hair off! He's still hot though!

And he's MINE! I claimed him long ago on one of the open threads when I listed my Kdrama "man-harem". *lol*
