Last Sunday, November 23, the South Korean actor Lee Chae Min had his first-ever fanmeeting in Manila for his “Chaem-into You,” at the New Frontier Theater— giving his Filipino CHAEMFs a night that’s unforgettable. Even though it was his first time in the Philippines, he felt at home thanks to the love and loud cheers of his Filo fans.
From the moment he went out the stage, his excitement was very evident to his face. “It’s my first time here in Manila and I’ve been excited to meet my Filipino CHAEMFs. It’s still very overwhelming until now. I have been very excited but I think all of you are more than my expectations,” he said.
He also added that a lot of people around him told him that Filipinos have a very passionate and loud cheers, he then claims that witnessing it firsthand exceeded all his expectations— “It really is beyond my expectations, it’s really amazing. When I look at you all closely, I think you really have beautiful smiles,” he further highlighted.
One highlights of the night was how game Lee Chae Min was. His cheerful approach to every segments, such as TMI’s, fan interactions, speaking in Tagalog, dancing to popular TikTok videos, and doing aegyo that had his fans screaming with kilig. He also made sure that every moment was initimate and personal by always looking at his fans, waving to them, went down the stage, and sheepishly smiling at their cheers.
Of course, the night wouldn’t be complete without getting further into his popular drama, “Bon Apetit, Your Majesty,” in which he played the kind yet charming Yi Heon. He also surprised his fans that his favorite cuisine from the series was Macarons. He added, “I really liked it because it was not very, very sweet and it had the authentic Korean flavors— I really like the savory flavor of Macarons.” Aside from that, he also talked about his favorite scenes from the series, where he chose the emotional moment when Yi Heon lets Ji Young go and the heartfelt kiss scene that the viewers loved.
Throughout the evening, Lee Chae Min’s sincerity was very evident, especially when he became emotional during his fans’ surprise fanmade video. He expressed his gratitude to his Filo CHAEMFs for their unending support. As the event come to a close, he performed “I Find You” which made his fans say goodbye with a smile.
And to top-off the night, every fan— regardless of their tier, had the opportunity to experience a “Hi-Bye” moment with Lee Chae Min. It was in fact a priceless farewell that made the entire experience incredibly memorable.
This event was made possible by PULP Live World and Varo Entertainment.
