FANMEETING RECAP: PH Minoz Experience a Magical Night with Lee Min Ho at the “Minhoverse” Fan Meeting in Manila – kdramadiary

PH Minoz were swept off their feet during an unforgettable evening with the one and only Lee Min Ho at his Minhoverse Philippine Fan Meeting, held last April 26 at the SM Mall of Asia Arena, proudly presented by PULP Live World.

Beloved worldwide, Lee Min Ho once again proved why he remains at the pinnacle of the Hallyu wave. His ongoing Asia Fan Meeting Tour is a dazzling celebration of his enduring global appeal.

Returning to the Philippines after two years, he was met with overwhelming love, kicking off the show with a sweet serenade of “I Love You”—setting the perfect tone for the night.

With his signature warmth, he greeted fans with a hearty, “Kamusta, Philippines?”, instantly melting hearts across the arena.

MINHOVERSE Part 1: L622 Segment

In the first chapter of the night, “L622,” Lee Min Ho dived into answering fun and candid questions from fans.

When asked, “When do you feel the cutest?” he modestly laughed, saying, “I never really thought I was cute. It’s the fans who say I’m cute, but I don’t really see it myself.”

A playful moment followed when he was challenged to show his instinctive dance moves to his song “Stalker”—a request he gladly fulfilled, sending the crowd into cheers.

Reflecting on his career, he shared that “every character I’ve played carries a piece of me,” when asked which role most mirrors his real self.

One particularly quirky challenge had him express his MBTI (he’s an ENTP!) in four facial expressions—a task he took on with playful confusion and endless charm.

When it came to handling stress and burnout, his advice was refreshingly simple:
“Sleep is the most important thing. Two nights ago, I slept for 15 hours. I think I belong here in the Philippines.“

Capping the first segment, he delivered a heartfelt performance of “Without You,” his soulful voice resonating deeply with fans.

MINHOVERSE Part 2: Iconic Character Gong Ryong Upgrade

The next part, the Iconic Character Gong Ryong Upgrade, brought a wave of nostalgia as Lee Min Ho revisited his legendary roles.

During the “Confession Masterclass,” he reviewed heart-fluttering scenes from Boys Over Flowers (Gu Jun-pyo), The Heirs (Kim Tan), and When the Stars Gossip (Gong Ryong). When asked which confession he liked best, he thoughtfully answered:

“All confessions are sincere, but I think Kim Tan resembles me the most—a perfect blend of confidence.“

In the “Kiss Masterclass” that followed, iconic kiss scenes from Legend of the Blue Sea, The King: Eternal Monarch, and When the Stars Gossip were showcased. He shared that while he usually flows naturally through such scenes, the zero-gravity kiss from When the Stars Gossip took the most takes—thanks to the unique setting.

Fans were also treated to a nostalgic interview where Lee Min Ho reminisced about his first Instagram post in 2015, revealing his love for authenticity and storytelling.

Energized, he then brought the house down with a lively performance of “Stalker,” dancing joyfully as the crowd sang along.

MINHOVERSE Part 3: Minozverse – Fun and Games

The fan meeting took an adorable turn with Filipino traditional games!

First up was Tumbang Preso, where Lee Min Ho competed against fans by knocking down cans with slippers. He managed to knock down two cans with childlike glee, sharing that he had a blast.

Next, he tackled Pop the Balloon, teaming up with a fan and popping four balloons in 30 seconds. Laughing, he quipped, “I usually pop eight!” but took it all in good spirits.

Winners received personalized voice messages and photos from the superstar. In a sweet, spontaneous moment, Lee Min Ho asked, “How do you say ‘I’ll take you home’ in Tagalog?” The host taught him “Uwi tayo sa bahay ko”, which he repeated cheekily, sending fans into a frenzy of cheers.

The surprises didn’t end there—fans presented him with a touching video project celebrating their years of love and loyalty. Moved to near tears, Lee Min Ho’s gratitude shone through his emotional expression.

A Bittersweet Farewell

As the evening drew to a close, Lee Min Ho sincerely thanked his Filipino fans:

“It was so nice to see you again after two years. Every year, you show me so much love, and it truly means a lot. I’m very grateful. Your love helps me become a better person.”

Just as the fans thought the night had ended, Lee Min Ho returned for a surprise encore, serenading them with “Always,” wrapping up a night filled with magic, laughter, and memories that PH Minoz will cherish forever.
