l am not Lee Min Ho fan even I've seen him in BOF and Personal Taste, but l still not his fan. But after l watched City Hunter, l simply could not wait for incoming episode every week, just eager to watch him. He is really a charm to Korea and him to bringing Yong Sung character is so right, tough to be expert in everything just couldn't handle his feeling and softness. Go Lee Min Ho!!
