He arrived in Japan last Tuesday and almost 1500 of Japanese fans gather at the international airport to welcome him. The numbers that turn up is really unexpected as this is the first time Hyun Bin visits Japan.
Hyun Bin who is also the main actor in MBC dramas “My name is Kim Sam Soon” and “Ireland” is getting famous ever since these two dramas goes on air. Last February, Japanese Magazine name him as no.1 in an ‘Hallyu Movie Star’ survey, which had him on his way following footsteps like Bae Yong Jun and Jang Dong Gun whom are well known in Japan as well.
He is still busy filming “Snow Queen” and in order to visit Japan to promote “Millionaire First Love”, he managed to squeeze some time to do it although for only one day, he managed to attend both interview and the promotion.
There were around 300 different media from newspapers to magazines attended the “Millionaire First Love” promotion. Local reporters said such function whereby so many different media attends is very hard to come by.
Well, Hyun Bin is great isn’t he? He almost top our chart in vote matters last month with only 3% away from the no.1.

“Snow Queen” viewing rate not as expected
When “Snow Queen” had it’s premiere two nights ago, the viewer rating is at it’s low 5.4%. The first episode shows that Hyun Bin is a math genius, he feels that he had indirectly killed his friend so he wanted to be a boxer which was his friends dream back then. Although Hyun Bin acting skills is very good but the premiere rating is unexpectedly low.
In fact at the same time slot, the other channel SBS was having “The King and the Clown” which has the viewing rate of 15.4% while another channel was having a traditional drama which has 43.6% viewer rate, these had caused “Snow Queen” lagging behind.
Hyun Bin who is the leading actor of “My name is Kim Sam Soon” was the legend in terms of viewer rating, we just hope that this is will not hit him hard.
