Chang Wook, Lee Kwang Soo Red Velvet, Running Man casts, Kim Bohyung, Hyumin-A,
Block B Bastarz, Jessica Jung – OMG ! April is such a freaking “durian runtuh”(windfall)
month for k-pop fanatics !
Looking
at the massive never ending k-pop invasion in Malaysia every month, the dwindling
Hong Kong e-circle influence and market share here is indeed alarming. During
the good ol’ days, we used to have multiple HK artistes heading to Malaysia but
now, it’s few and far between.
A
week after the “Running Man” concert tour in KL, Prince of Asia, Lee Kwang Soo
is back on our shores for the seventh time ! Lee Kwang Soo has been appointed
as the ambassador for Guerisson brand for the past 3 years and he was invited
to grace the launch of Guerisson Red
Ginseng series at Pavilion. Prior to the
event, 100 fortunate fans were selected for an autograph session with the ever
charming Lee Kwang Soo. I have to give the organizer a pat on the back for a
flawless execution of the whole event, right from the selection of the
venue(Pavilion centre court), to the way the whole event was organized. Hats
off to the security team, too. They acted professionally but was obliging when
the situation warrants. Can’t say the
same when Bonia invited Mrs Rain (Kim Tae Hee) for the launch of their flagship
store. Fans only caught a few seconds of Kim after crowding outside the store
for hours. The organiser is more
interested in pleasing their current elite clienteles of Datins and local
celebs/guests instead of promoting and expanding the brand presence.
My
first encounter with Kwang Soo and I have absolutely nothing but praises for him.
Lee Kwang Soo provides number 1 fan service !! He’s not only humble but most
importantly, treats his fans like gold (I assure you, no exaggeration !). How
can anyone not love this guy ?? Kwang Soo tries hard to please every single
fan, painstakingly writing fan’s name on the autograph board, taking wefie and
attending to fans’ queries with his limited English. Due to the many requests, the autograph
session drags to about 1 hour. For other
artistes, it would have taken less than ½ hour to sign 100 autographs. I have
to add, although I’m delighted that Kwang Soo never shies away from fans’ demands,
I am taken aback when the final fan in the queue planted a surprise kiss on the
cheek of a stunned Kwang Soo. I find that disrespectful eventhough
Kwang Soo smiled and covered his face in embarrassment. It’s fine to request
for a hug but to pull a stunt like this is totally unacceptable!
Kwang
Soo shared that he has a fairer and better complexion after using Guerisson’s
skincare products. Before the function concluded, Kwang Soo has the passionate fans
roaring in approval when he declares his love for Malaysia and hopes that the
fans’ continued support would bring him to this country more often.
At the time of writing, Malaysia is still not in the list of G Dragon's 3rd solo concert (Mother's Womb). Praying hard that a stopover in Malaysia is included in his tour.
