Actor-turned-singer Jang Keun Suk has wrapped up his Asian tour, “THE CRI SHOW“, with a last stop in Shanghai on July 9th.
The Hallyu star began his 3-month tour in April by traveling to Singapore as well as to Hong Kong, Thailand, Malaysia, Taiwan, and Shanghai. Wherever he went, he met with crowds of eager fans who took up substantial areas in the airport, and was even pursued on the road by fans in cars.
Unlike in Korea, where he’s known for his acting skills, Jang awed his overseas fans with his amazing music performances. He charmed his audience by singing everything from ballads to cute dance songs.
Jang’s fans made the news by giving him with extravagant gifts, such as a Porsche; some even proposed to the star and wore wedding dresses to top off the effect.
In Taiwan, tickets for his fan meeting were completely sold out mere seconds after they went on sale. The actor’s team responded by holding an additional fan meeting to satisfy Jang’s devoted fans.
After successfully carrying out his first-ever Asian tour, Jang moved on to film for his new movie with actress Kim Ha Neul, titled ‘You’re My Pet‘.
