Lee Min Ho was reported to have been invited to be the model for the cover page of a well known Japanese magazine for its April issue. The Korean actor will promote his most recent TV drama, "Legend of the Blue Sea", through the magazine. This will be on March 22.
This will surely help in the hype and popularity of the TV drama, as it enters the Japanese market, in search for more fan-base after being banned out of China. China's decision to block all Korean influence in the nation surely has a factor to this, as their entertainment agency is doing the best of what it can to continue the two celebrities' career and popularity.
According to K-pop Herald, Jang Geun-suk is also reported to be featured in the pictorial's special edition. This is to go in tandem with the upcoming release of Jang's latest TV drama entitled, "Jackpot". With this, one can clearly see that the popularity of the two K-pop idols is not only confined in Korea, but in neighboring countries as well, especially in Japan.
In other news, according to Korea Portal, Jang Geun-suk is also perfecting his diet routine as he wants to lose some weight. He says that he has now become more conscious with what he eats and drinks. He wants to be healthier and more good liking.
With all of these being said, K-pop has indeed grown very much popular in Asia. Even Japan, which is known to have their own respective and distinct entertainment culture, is now tapping into its Korean neighbor's TV industry.
Surely, the exposure of Lee Min Ho and Jang Geun-suk in the upcoming issue of the Japanese magazine, would further improve their popularity not only in Asia, but throughout the whole world as well.
