In the '2022 Overseas Korean Wave Survey' conducted by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism from November 5 to December 8 last year, targeting 8,500 Korean Wave cultural contents from 18 countries, Lee Min-ho ranked first as the best Korean actor in 2021. 

Lee Min-ho, who rose from KBS2's 'Boys Over Flowers' to 'Hallyu Star', which he appeared in when he was a rookie, has maintained his 'Korean Wave presence' for 4 years from 2018 to 2019, 2020, and 2021.

Meanwhile, the survey was conducted in China, Japan, Taiwan, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, India, Vietnam, Australia, the United States, Brazil, Argentina, France, United Kingdom, Russia, Turkey, United Arab Emirates and South Africa.

@syntyche thanks for sharing this. While BTS was voted as the most favored K-Pop singer. Ohhh....4-years in a row. I thought all along, and as far as I can recall, Lee Min Ho was voted here in this government report as the most favored Korean actor for two years in a row. So, I stand corrected. Aside from Ministry of Culture, it was also conducted by Korean Foundation for International Culture Exchange (KOFICE). This report is published annually. Lee Min Ho once again topped the list with 9.3%. (Hyun Bin followed with 3.1% Gong Yoo came in third with 2.8%, followed by Song Hye Kyo (2.2%) and Song Joong Ki (2.1%). Lee Jong Suk (1.7%) and Jun Ji Hyun (1.6%) came in next.) Just like LMH, BTS does it again, too.

Lovestruck: Why Lee Min-Ho, Jun Ji-Hyun's The Legend of the Blue Sea must be on your Valentine's Day watchlist

 

The K-drama is indeed one of the best shows across the world and you should watch it with your significant other on a date night.

 

 

Sunidhi Prajapat

The Legend of the Blue Sea

 

K-dramas have been gathering immense traction and lauds across the world. South Korean shows and films are known for their unique concepts, such as fantasy, romance and more.

The Legend of the Blue Sea is among those romantic series that are based on a fantasy world. The 2016 show follows the life of an intelligent and handsome con artist, who falls in love with a mermaid. Lee Min-ho and Jun Ji-hyun are the two superstars of the Korean industry, who can be seen as the leading couple in the series.

The show begins with Lee Min-ho's character Heo Joon-jae who goes on a holiday to Spain and stays at a lavish property beside the seashore. After a few days, he finds a girl with no name (played by Jun Ji-hyun) in the closet of his hotel room, wearing his clothes and eating his food. He hands her over to the police as soon as he catches her red handed, however, a bangle that she's wearing doesn't let him forget her after knowing that it's worth millions. He goes to the police station to set her free.

The story becomes as adorable as cruel it sounds right now. The hero who is only about the money suddenly starts to care about this girl with whom he was only for the bangle. However, after an uninvited mishappening, they both jump in the sea. After waking up at a beach, Joon-Jae finds himself alone with the bangle in his wrist. Although, he completely forgets the girl he was with a few days ago.

The story of the show had me so mesmerised that I can pen it down scene by scene and it won't let you move away from the screen for a second. The above-mentioned 'synopsis' is just the beginning as the girl, who has no name, was actually a mermaid and landed in that hotel room by mistake. 

The 16 episode long series talks about the power of love and how strong is it to make a mermaid actually swim across continents for humans that she has fallen in love with. As the story progresses, it unveils how the two have been connected from their past life and how they are destined to meet in the current one.

With one of the epic and unique love story, The Legend of The Blue Sea showcases a lot of great locations of both the land and the water world. The stylish avatars and great costumes of the actors will definitely attract you and up your fashion game too. The writers have very intelligently curated the two parallel timelines running at the same time in the show.

Towards the end, the series becomes serious, however, the best part is that it doesn't end as a tragedy. As impossible as it might seem, the human and the mermaid find out their way to live happily ever after.

The Legend of The Blue Sea is indeed one of the best shows across the world and as it is Valentine's Week, the Netflix's series must be on your watch list to watch it with your significant other.

Dear Oppa: A fan writes about 'Boys Over Flowers’ stars Lee Min Ho & Kim Bum being in their heart

 

 

‘Boys Over Flowers’ is a 2009 South Korean television series, based on starring the Japanese manga series, ‘Hana Yori Dang’. Starring Ku Hye Sun, Lee Min Ho, Kim Hyun Joong, Kim Bum, Kim Joon, and Kim So Eun, the series earned high viewership ratings in South Korea and became a cultural phenomenon throughout Asia. ‘Boys Over Flowers’ is often viewed as a pioneer for Korean high school series, and earned immense international popularity for its lead actors.

 

Today’s letter in our Dear Oppa series has been penned by a fan from India, to ‘Boys Over Flowers’ stars Lee Min Ho and Kim Bum. Read their letter below.

 

Dear Oppa (Lee Min Ho and Kim Bum),

As ‘Kaisi Yeh Yaariaan’ went off-air I started to cry badly because I wasn't able to move on from it. After a lot of research, I accidentally found ‘Boys Over Flowers’ somewhere or the other and I knew that it was going to be the right decision. 

 

The screen displayed a group, F4, with all the members having an attractive face and fit body that perfectly matched with branded suits and luxurious cars. I started falling in love with Lee Min Ho and Kim Bum’s characters. Gu Jun Pyo (Lee Min Ho) taught me that true love really exists if both are willing to put equal efforts to maintain their relationship, and how important friendship and love are in one's life, neither one can replace each other. Whereas on the other hand, So Yi Jung (Kim Bum) who used to always stand up for his friends and helped Gu Jun Pyo to regain his first love, touched my heart. And his chemistry with Chu Ga Eul (Kim So Eun) made me believe that you don't have to be in a relationship to feel the essence of love.

 

Gu Jun Pyo, you taught me how important parents can be for children especially at the time of their growing stage, how badly wrong and forceful decisions of parents can impact one mentally and while growing, but the ending gave me hope in the dasction of my imaginary world in the drama, from you both I discovered that jealousy isn't creepy and I re-introduced myself to my imaginary world of a K-drama fan, a world of ‘saranghae’ & ‘oppa’, ‘ramen’ & ‘kimchi’ & to a world without an exit from K-dramas.

 

I wanna say that I'll not miss you as you are always gonna be in my heart.

 

Your fan from India,

 

I wish you all a happy and healthy future.

I purple you all.

6 Pairs Of Korean Celebs Who Actually Dated

 

It’s always big news in South Korea whenever a Korean celebrity couple is revealed to be dating. Their relationship is either confirmed by their respective agencies or sometimes, they announce it themselves. Fans would rejoice once a new pair is born but once their breakup is declared, it’s a truly devastating moment for them.

 

 

5. Lee Min Ho and Park Min Young

 

 

Thanks to the high-rating K-drama City Hunter, Lee Min Ho and Park Min Young grew fond of each other! Their relationship was officially announced in August 2011 by Min Ho’s former agency, StarHaus Entertainment. As written by Soompi, a person who’s close to them stated that they didn’t want to make their relationship public so they had to be *very* careful whenever they go on dates. At the same time, they would often bring a mutual friend with them. By 2012, the couple parted ways and were “back to just being friends.”
