Sigh.........it just never gets old. :-D

Maybe the next couple of days will be extremely un-newsworthy in Kdramaland, so my baby can stay right where he is.

I dont care if he wears potatoe sacks! He will still rock my WORLD! I wonder what its like being Lee Min Ki?!?!?!?

LOL reminds me of the pictures my sister took at Jingle Bell Bash, a concert put on by a local radio station every year right before Christmas in Seattle. Ty from All American Rejects had worn a blue dress for the occasion.

I liked him but he's getting weirder and weirder.
Don't guys know girls are turned off by weird guys?

forget the skirt, YAY LEE MIN KI! I NEED TO SEE THIS PERFORMANCE! 80kidz was there too? too cool.

@langdon
Ummm....I think the reason that your I Lub U is wearing the skort is that he's too hot *wink*** that's my medical/personal reason.....cingdoc
THUD....are you ok???? Don't pass out again, I won't be home til Sun...so hang in there....nice and easy...deep breath, slowly, again...Don't hyperventilate

i’m confused as well

"Don’t guys know girls are turned off by weird guys?"

Not this girl! 8)

momosan...I got my eye on you. O_o

:-D

@ paula253

i'd appreciate him A LOT more if he was wearing a kilt.. if you get my drift. (pun TOTALLY intended) more so than his skort. i mean, why a skort? just wear the KILT!!! :D

(totally trying to trump paula253 on the leader-esque role)

I like the skirt-over-shorts look, he has the legs to pull it off. Seriously, I have never really thought knees were sexy before, but I have been enlightened!

OH MY LORD! is this for real?? first guyliners ( which looks HAWT on some guys at any rate hint JKS and LMH so its forgivable)... but now Skorts....what is the world coming to? isnt a woman entitled to her prettiful things without guys pouncing on it....sigh sigh

@ Samsooki
the scot korean bit * we are not worthy we are not worthy*

haha, i find it oddly charismatic :)
i think adding a little strange to one's fashion once in a while can be quite attractive, enlightens you to the fact that there's more than pretty boy behind that face..

go LEE MIN KI!

Wonderful acting talent? Check
Questionable musical side career? Check
Strange, hot mess of a haircut? Check
Odd outfit purposely assembled to throw us off of the trail of his extreme good-looking-ness? Check

I officially proclaim Lee Min Ki the Johnny Depp of South Korea!

nice legs

GOD... and i was already against Skorts on GIRLS..! seriously, is he purposely trying to lessen his prettiness? (and taking tips from the jang geun seok school of how-to-not-be-typed-as-a-prettyboy?)
O_o

hates to admit it but his new hair do and short/skirt really match.

Sorry, love artists going out on a limb, but hate the skirt. Reminds me way too much of my old school uniform, and a hot young man wearing my school uniform is just so wrong.

o dear god...the skorts were a bad idea!! totally takes away the lime-light from his voice (if its any good...)

I think his voice is VERY good!

I don't know where he thinks he's heading with this "I'm in an indie-rock phase...wearing a skirt" kind of thing. But hopefully, he'll wake up from this lunacy.

eeee!! =D --> possibly my least coherent comment ever lol

Oh dear! I just had a flash back to high school. They made us wear a similar pleated skirt/skort as our uniform!!! We got to wear white ankle socks though not black.
From the waist up, HOT! Waist down, not so hot.

@ 73 ladylgraine

I don't think it's lunacy at all. I think he's really lucky to have the luxury of pursuing his passion. A lot of people don't get (or don't take) the opportunity to do that. I admire him for taking a risk like this, because it takes a lot of courage to put yourself out there and open yourself up to criticism. He's not immersing himself in a character, he's letting people see HIM. Whether or not he's the best musician or the best singer really doesn't matter, it's still quite brave. And quirky! Nothing wrong with that. ;-)

As you can probably tell from all the squealing earlier I am very very partial to LMK, but I would honestly say the same thing about anyone choosing to do something they love, rather than something they might be better at. I'd be willing to bet he got a lot more satisfaction after this concert ended than from strolling down a runway or making a movie (even though those paychecks were probably considerably higher)! More power to him, I say.

He's trying to pull a v-kei with that skirt isn't he?!
It could work because he has long hair.. but he needs to play it up a bit more for it to be interesting and not be considered strange...

Is Lee Min Ki going tranny?

How can anyone take him seriously as a singer looking like that?

@langdon813
right on, and thanks for sharing that youtube link. lovely.

there might have been a theme? I noticed that the other artists, including Min Ki are wearing some type of white band on one arm. For a moment there I had thought there was a death in the family!

Saw photos of Min Ki at his B-day party held 6 days ago by fans! The cake tiered cupcake looked so cute especially with the pokemon figure Min Ki is supposed to resemble prominently displayed at the front top layer of the cake.

@langdon813,

i'm not sure if you can take much more today but perhaps you won't see these until Sat. when your humidifiers have a chance to rev up again...

::warning:: a little racy even for DB Land. IOW just about perfect for ICOMYM

from sept 09 but timeless!!!

http://www.allkpop.com/2009/09/lee_minki_poses_for_vogue_girl_and_arena

I actually read some of the text ^^ and found this line interesting in light of the discussion above:

"[Clothes he modeled included jeans]...along with two knapsacks that crisscrossed across his back – and as peculiar as it may be, Lee Minki came up with the idea for this look himself!" IOW he's someone who is interested in pushing fashion boundaries. Like we didn't know that already!!

@ paula253

Thank you! Oh yes, these have all already been saved to the bursting-at-the-seams Lee Min-ki pic folder on my laptop. The lollipop one is my Twitter pic, actually! :-D

He's my I LUB YOU, what can I say??

"He’s trying to pull a v-kei with that skirt isn’t he?!"

Kinda fails in that regard. The skirt says Gackt-sama and promises yaoi french kissing between him and the drummer. But the shirt says "I'm still a serious Korean guy."

Only a Kim Hee Chul fully indulges in the pleasure principles of visual kei: boys in dresses and sloppy, sloppy kisses. ;)

The white arm band ?, the late Michael Jackson trademark !!

@20 Samsooki, you really have the knack at finding the most appropriate videos to suit the topic at hand. I thought the Finding Nemo "Mine" video for Open Thread "meat market" a couple of weeks back was hysterical and now this. Man, you are the man!

Talking about man, not many man can pull off this look that Lee Min Ki is sporting. Lee Min Ki, Kim Jae Wook and Jang Geun Seok are some of the few who can.

@langdon813,
i figured i'd have to get up Awfully Early in the Morning to find a LMK image you didn't have in your folder. ^^

LOL(li pop) that that's your Twitter pic. lemme guess, you've got that pic in mind when you fantasi, er imagine another version of the IRIS candy-exchange scene in Akita, right??? (i assume you've seen IRIS)

But of course! Who do you think gave him that lollipop? :-D

Don't I wish...

@ langdon813,

i thought that's why he looked so happy. ^^

he reminds me of james iha, formerly of smashing pumpkins.....
anyway he look so hot sans the skirt...=)

Dear MinKi,

I love you. I really do. But that black skort thing is ridickulous. If Marc Jacobs couldn't pull it off, then you most definitely cannot. More importantly, if we're going to continue this me-drooling-over-you-and- constantly-looking-for-new-youtube-videos-of-awkward-you-relationship, you're going to have to improve your fashion sense.

I get that you want to be a rockstar. But you look more like a POSEUR in rockstar threads than an actual rockstar.

Please turn into Kang Tae Bong again. kthnxbaii.

also does anyone know if that white armband signifies anything?

thank god, he doesn't have chicken legs..otherwise, it'll be too painful to watch a man wearing that kilt-inspired get-up!

everything what he do, he always make me smile :-) ha..ha.. he look enjoy and he have fun, that more important.. hwaiting min ki oppa..

I don't believe it... is real? I'm fall in love again!!!

yeah,first picture i love him more, 2nd n the rest??? i dunno,i want to cry or laugh or what???? but yeah...i agree with u emma,what ever he do he always make me smile. he's really unique, i love u just the way u are MINKI.....fighting......

lee min ki is my favourite n i really admire people who can carry every outfit with confident. i wish lee min ki sucess in his projects.
