Lee Min-ki to hold his first concert
by javabeans
Lee Min-ki, who put out his first solo album this year, is going to be performing at his first concert on January 29. He has sung on various soundtracks and participated as a special guest at other singers’ performances, but this will be the first concert where he performs under his name only.
Lee Min-ki hasn’t been shy about proclaiming his interest in music, and has chosen to pursue musical interests even as his acting career began to take off. On a recent cable television appearance, he talked about his shift to music: “It’s not something I decided to do suddenly, so it feels natural. I’ve taken an opportunity that came my way when I was already somewhat prepared. I’m making music earnestly, so I hope you won’t see it lightly.”
Others in the lineup for the “Lock Smith Adventure” concert include electronic musicians 2manydjs, 80KIDZ, and Sheean. Tickets go on sale on December 23.

Love him! I have since Dal Ja's Spring. I also like that his music is not exactly mainstream material. <3

What do you think about Minki's musical attempt??
I've listened to his album and his type of music clicks with me, but voice wise.. err.

Not bad. Based on that one song, I say he has some talent.
I hope he comes back to acting, though. I can't think of any other actor who can pull off quirky-but-earnest as well he does.

I totally need a "like" button right now. :O
Except that..as much as I enjoy listening to his mini-album, it's not really something I'd go to a concert for. Like, it's stuff I want to listen to while cruising in my car or while settling into the writing groove, not stuff I want to rock out to in an auditorium. (Maybe other people feel differently, whatever.)
Still, I wish him the best of luck. :D I've always loved that quirky kid.

I've only seen him in DJ's Spring, and thought he was great in it...so I was curious to hear what he sounds like as a singer...while I like the song, very 80-ish, his vocals do not move me at all (unlike JGS or Lee Dong Gun who totally make me melt whatever they sing or speak!), his voice is pretty monotonous...maybe it's the style, but it sounds like it could be a more upbeat song, with more excitement and dynamics in the vocals...I wish him good luck as he makes music a focus, but I hope he will keep his acting career going as well...

Recovered (mostly)!
How lovely to end the day with my I LUB YOU. I wish I could write something profound or cute while I listen to his voice in my ear...but all I can do is laugh.
Oh, and...MINE! :-D
THANKS JB!!! Just for this, I hope Santa leaves Kang Ji-hwan under your tree (wearing a big red strategically placed bow...and a smile)!

OMG... I love your voice my darling.. but please don't stop with dramas.. this fangirl wants to see you as much as possible!!!
I loved him in all his dramas I' ve watched of him.. and in X-man too.. He was soo cute in Evasive Inquiry Agency (aka Mixed-up Investigative Agency), delicious in Dal Ja's Spring, and awesomely adolable in I Really Really Like You...

I just got home! After 1 and 1/2 hrs of driving, what an awesome surprise to see him here!!!!!!!!!! Next to "MY Micky Yuchun(such a great composer as well as being a singer)", Jejung and Bigbang, he's gonna be my favorite singer.

I'll never be able to see Lee Min Ki as a serious musician after his terrible "singing" in Xman... Perhaps a case of too much "multiplayer" ambition? At least he's still acting.

LOVE HIM! he's hot as ever
he plays my type of music but his vocals are ehhh... weak. yeah, and as eeps said, he didn't really show that much talent "singing" in xman. i think he's just in love with the rocker image? he's evidently really into that whole black nailpolish, skulls, skinny boy, rocker (*cough* taekyung ) look
HE WAS SO HOT IN DALJA... COME BACK TO ME TAEBONG

He might not be an amazing singer but the song is not bad at all ; )
We have to give him credit, he has improved since x-man!!!
I like him as a singer but i love him even more as an actor. I would love to see him in a new project... for example he would be more than perfect for the remake of Kimi wa petto... as MOMO ; ) but well I am not sure about the dancing part ?

javabeans, maybe you can clarify this for me...the mod at Min Ki's daum cafe is attempting to say that this is actually incorrect news?
↓↓↓ 밑의 기사는 오보입니다. (단독콘서트아님)
밑의 기사를 보시면 민기님 '단독콘서트'라고 기사가 났는데요.
오보(잘못된 기사) 입니다.
'소울왁스'라는 그룹의 공연에
민기님은 게스트로 참여하셔서 한, 두곡정도만 부르신다고 합니다.
단독 콘서트가 아니니, 혼동하시지 않기 바랍니다.
Also...anyone else besides me who has actually listened to Min Ki's bonus tracks on the Oishii Man OST? I thought they were really good.
