Korean actor LEE MIN HO reunited with his beloved Filipino MINOZ as he transported fans into the MINHOVERSE on April 26, 2025, at the Mall of Asia Arena. Nearly two years since his last visit to the Philippines, he was met with a warm and heartfelt welcome from fans eager to see him once again.
The arena erupted with cheers as he stepped onto the stage, opening with a performance of “I Love You”, a promise fulfilled to return to his Filipino fans. His bright, infectious smile lit up the night, spreading joy from beginning to end. When asked when he feels the cutest, LEE MIN HO humbly responded that he’s never really thought about it, but hearing that MINOZ think he’s cute made the moment even more endearing, capturing hearts all over again.
True to his word, LEE MIN HO continues to prove his versatility, not only as an actor, but as a performer who pours pieces of himself into every character he plays. He shared that each role reflects aspects of who he is, making his portrayals more authentic. Among his well-known characters, Kim Tan from The Heirs was his favorite character. Revealing his current MBTI type as ENTP, he curiously asked fans if the personality test is also popular in the Philippines.
When it comes to stress relief, his advice is simple but golden: get plenty of sleep, even admitting he slept for 15 hours upon arriving in Manila. For the first time in the Philippines, he performed “Without You” live and made hearts flutter as he said, “Mahal kita” to his fans. And yes, he sang with a live band, a rare treat for an actor’s fan meeting, making the night even more special and unforgettable.
Exploring the MINHOVERSE became even more exciting with interactive games and heartwarming segments that brought LEE MIN HO and his fans closer than ever. From learning sweet Filipino phrases like “Mahal kita,” “Mahal ko kayo,” and the swoon-worthy “Uwi na kita” (“I’ll take you home”), fans were left with butterflies and big smiles. The luckiest MINOZ got the once-in-a-lifetime chance to play the classic Filipino game “Tumbang Preso” with him, popping balloons, receiving gifts—and yes, even sharing a hug with LEE MIN HO himself.
The night overflowed with cheers and kilig moments as the crowd erupted in joy when LEE MIN HO watched a surprise video lovingly prepared by his fans. Touched by the gesture, he expressed his heartfelt gratitude by performing “Always” and delivering a moving message:
Our time together has come to an end. Thank you for your warm welcome after two years. I truly want to thank all of you. This unconditional love you give me means so much. It makes me a better person and a better actor. Until we meet again—thank you. This has been Lee Min Ho. Stay healthy. And mahal kita.
A perfect ending to a magical night in the MINHOVERSE. The night was filled with laughter, music, heartfelt memories, and a deep connection between LEE MIN HO and his Filipino MINOZ. It was more than just a fan meeting, it was a celebration of love, appreciation, and the unbreakable bond they’ve shared over the years.
