I thought 1 billion WON = 1 million USD.

Hence 900 million = 900, 000 USD. And 1400 million won = 1.4 million USD. please correct me if I am wrong. Also seeing other rising popular actors cf fees already 600 000 USD, cant imagine Mino fees is much less.

 

Haha ! You're right, 1 billion WON = 1 million USD, I must be addleheaded.   

I've corrected my post. Sorry to confuse you.

@gtLmh0622:  It is interesting how Heirs is still fairly popular given that the drama aired almost 5 years ago.

FAITH EPISODE 5

The King and Queen rock in the opening scene confronting Gi Cheol.  Now I'm confused.  he is the brother of Queen Gi; is Gi Cheol Chinese?  ES is pretty funny too, standing up to Gi Cheol.  I love Dae-man so worried about his captain.  Did CY return from the dead because he promised to protect ES.  I love how bold the Queen is  even talking back to the King.  I think we all suspect Court Lady Choi is related to CY.  Isn't it strange that she never goes to see how he is?  Hmm, do you guys think when CY rescues ES at Gi Cheol that that is the beginning of CY 's and ES's relationship.  They both seem happy to see one another (aside from CY saying that he likes her).  Notice that he allows ES to touch him.

Can you explain more about "Media Play"? What is it and what does it do? Thanks!

 

Spoiler

There were lots of actors promoted themselves when/after their dramas aired. Their agency companies were good at making various topics, they issued drafts to medias to state that xxx was most popular, got highest rewards, mentioned or compared others (especially LMH) to raise their own value, and etc. They paid money to SNS accounts for promoting themselves and slandering others, even made fraud views on stream sites.

BTW, donation is an issue as well. When the Sinking of MV Sewol (2014), lots of celebrities announced that they made donations, LMH was attacked by haters that he didn't make donation, but when he got " Happiness Sharing " award in 2016, we finally knew that he immediately donated 100 million won after the Sinking of MV Sewol.

 

When LOTBS was aired, I wondered why the promotions for this drama/leading actors/actress were so poor. Maybe just because both LMH and JJH are top actors, they don't need promotions and they don't like promote themselves ?!

900 million won ? Yes, 900 million won = USD 900,000.  ←  but this is the first time I heard that he earned USD 900,000 for 15 min.
And 1.4 billion = 1400 million won = USD 1,400,000.  ← That's exactly, I have read the news for his OSIM endorsement fee before. 

thanx for your reply...i will make article about this in my facebook page and i will be paying to boost my post/my article on my fb page

I remember that 2018-7+8 was about the survey in America.

I think they issued the report by different area in every vol. Maybe they found the Hallyu story in Turkey was worthy to be reported separately.

Hi gtLmh, thanks for sharing TODAY's pictures + the clip. It's autumn/fall right now in Seoul so, I'm not surprised why his get-up is like that now, wearing that windbreaker. It's COOL now in there. Not long after, cold season hits in & winter kicks in ... A/F is short in duration. Although, these seasons are considered the best time to visit Seoul.

gtLmh, thanks for sharing this. Isn't it there's also a female NK who defected to SK because of LMH? That after watching his drama "The Heirs", she decided to defect the very next day. So amusing that she also wanted to marry him - hahaha. Well, who doesn't want? BTW, thanks for sharing the translation. I feel happy about this popularity of him in that place.

Everything You Need To Know About Lee Min Ho

It's time to brush up on your LMH knowledge!

 

PHOTO: Instagram/actorleeminho

 

The South Korean actor, singer, and model dubbed as "King Of Ads" and "Long-Legged Oppa," has made us swoon non-stop after more than five successful dramas, multiple visits to the Philippines, and that ~adorable~ smile. And because we've fangirled over him for more than a decade, here's a refresher course on Lee Min Ho's early career, pivotal roles, past relationships, and notable awards.

Early Life And Career

Lee Min Ho was born on June 22, 1987, in Heukseok-dong, Seoul, South Korea. We don't know much about Lee Min Ho's parents, because they tend to keep their personal lives private, but we do know that his sister, Lee Yun Jeong, is the CEO of MYM Entertainment, Lee Min Ho's current agency.

 

Lee Min Ho was going to be a professional soccer player, but an injury during elementary school made him shift to acting. By his final year of high school, he was signed by Starhaus Entertainment. 

Most of us first saw Lee Min Ho as Gu Jun Pyo in the 2009 series Boys Over Flowers, but how exactly did the Korean oppa get started in the acting industry? Before getting his big break, Lee Min Ho officially made his acting debut on May 10, 2006, through the show Secret Campus. He also had roles in television dramas such as Mackerel Run, I Am Sam, and Get Up, and for films Public Enemy Returns and Our School E.T.

Notable Acting Roles

Boys Over Flowers (2009)

In this Korean adaptation of the manga Hana Yori Dango, Lee Min Ho played Gu Jun Pyo (his first major lead role), the leader of F4 and heir to the Shinhwa Group, one of the biggest companies in South Korea. He's hot-tempered and unable to express his feelings well. He torments Geum Jan-di (Ku Hye Sun) but ends up falling in love with her.

Lee Min Ho auditioned for the role along with hundreds of other actors, and actually found out about his casting through a newspaper!

 

Personal Taste (2010)

This romantic comedy tells the story of furniture designer, Park Kae-in (Son Ye Jin), who lives with architect Jeon Jin-ho (Lee Min Ho) because she's under the assumption that he's gay.

 

City Hunter (2011)

This action series features Lee Min Ho as Yoon-sung, whose ultimate goal is to avenge his father's killers. He assumes a double life by using the identity of a Korean-American teenager, graduating from MIT with a doctorate degree, and landing a job at South Korea's presidential palace where he meets presidential bodyguard Kim Na-na (Park Min Young), with whom he falls in love.

P.S. Lee Min Ho actually suffered from a car accident while filming the series.

 

Faith (2012)

It's about a modern-day plastic surgeon (Kim Hee Sun), who is kidnapped and travels back in time to the Goryeo period, 700 years in the past. There, she falls in love with her kidnapper, Lee Min Ho's character, a warrior and the leader of the royal guard.

 

The Heirs (2013)

The series follows a group of rich, privileged high school students as they are about to take over their families' business empires. Lee Min Ho played Kim Tan, a member of the elite who falls for poor girl Cha Eun-sang (Park Shin Hye). He is later forced to choose between the responsibility of pursuing the family business or ~love~.

 

Gangnam Blues (2015)

This South Korean noir action film is set in the 1970s against the backdrop of the real estate development of Seoul's Gangnam district amidst socio-political turmoil and terrorism. Lee Min Ho gets caught in battles between political powers and criminal organizations. 

 

The Legend of the Blue Sea (2016)

Inspired by a classic Joseon legend from Korea's first collection of unofficial historical tales about a fisherman who captures and releases a mermaid, this drama tells the love story of a con-artist (Lee Min Ho) and a mermaid (Jun Ji Hyun) who travels across the ocean to find him.

 

Bounty Hunters (2016)

This action comedy movie features highly-skilled bounty hunters pursuing fugitives in Korea, China, Hong Kong, and Thailand. Lee Min Ho plays San, a martial arts expert.

 

Singing Career

Lee Min Ho's first album, My Everything, is dedicated to (who else?) his fans, and it consists of a variety of ballads and upbeat tracks. When he released it in 2013, he also went on a fan tour, going to Asian countries such as Malaysia and the Philippines to perform.

Notable Awards

• 2009 Best New Actor at the Baek Sang Art Awards for Boys Over Flowers
• 2013 Best Couple Award with Park Shin Hye, Top Excellence Award (Actor in a Drama Special), and Best Dressed at the SBS Drama Awards for The Heirs
• 2014 Prime Minister Award at the fifth Korean Popular Culture & Arts Award
• 2015 Most Popular Actor (TV) at the Baek Sang Art Awards for Gangnam Blues
• 2016 Most Anticipated Action Comedy Actor and Asian Movie Pioneer at the first Weibo Movie Awards for Bounty Hunters
• 2017 Best Couple with Jun Ji Hyun at the SBS Drama Awards for The Legend of the Blue Sea

 

What He's Up To Now

Lee Min Ho is currently away from the spotlight as part of his mandatory military service. His hiatus began in May 2017 when he was assigned at the Suseo Social Welfare Center in Gangnam District Office and worked as a public service officer. Lee Min Ho got an exemption from active-duty service after his car accident in 2006 with fellow actor Jung Il Woo wherein he was hospitalized for a broken thigh and ankle bones.

In March 2018, he entered his military training at the Korea Army Training Center in Nonsan, South Korea and returned to public service duty after four weeks of basic military training. He will be discharged in May 2019.

Fun Trivia: 

• He's actually a little clumsy (awww). He's tripped on the red carpet a couple of times and it's been caught on tape!
• He's a philanthropist! He even has his own fundraising and social donation platform called PROMIZ, which he founded in 2014. 
• He has a wax figure at Madame Tussauds in Shanghai, which was unveiled in 2013.

7 K-Dramas & Films With Con Artists Who Never Fail To Charm Us

Heo Joon Jae, Jo Nam Doo, and Tae Oh in “The Legend of the Blue Sea”

 

These three are at it from the get go! Using hypnosis, charm, and technology, this trio has no qualms about scamming money from the wealthy who abuse their power. However, we can’t exactly call them modern day Robin Hood characters, because instead of giving back to the poor, they use their reward money to fund all their personal vacations.

It’s also Heo Joon Jae (Lee Min Ho)’s solo con against Shim Cheong (Jun Ji Hyun) that gets him tossed into the world of mermaids, reincarnation, and the whereabouts of his estranged parents! It all starts with that damn jade bracelet. Even when he promises Shim Cheong that he will step away from his promiscuous lifestyle, we still find him turning back to his old ways with Nam Doo (Lee Hee Joon) and Tae Oh (Shin Won Ho). He has good reason though, because if his conning is successful then his family, friends, and him will have a happily ever after! “The Legend of the Blue Sea” offers what anyone would want in a drama: romance, fantasy, and heists!

Above are in Turkey.

 

 

ps. From 2014 to now 2018, no other names appeared on Global TOP 1 and TOP 2. Always PSY and LMH were TOP 1 or TOP 2.  (The survey was begun from 2013 and the data of 2014 was the result of survey in 2013)

 

LMH is the only one male actor on the list for 5 years.
