Popular Korean actor Jang Keun Suk and model Ai Tominaga attended Hublot’s charity performance press conference on 6 Oct 2011.

When asked about girlfriend, JKS said, “I like many people, but only one can be a girlfriend….recently I’ve been filming on the set, it’s very hard to be in love.” A female reporter who didn’t give up asked about his ideal type. In the face of such pressing questions, JKS said, “Wait, wait a while! What girl I like has nothing to do with age, compatibility of character is more important. I like feminine girls. Don’t men like coquettish girls? I like this type.” JKS also reveals that he likes girls with classical demeanour, for example Yamato Nadeshiko. As for his ideal date venue, JKS said, “Strolling together in the park, slowly getting to know one another.”

Despite his intense popularity in Japan and busy schedule flying between countries, he also has his childish side. When wearing a limited edition watch for auction, he could not hide his excitement and said, “Ah ah, too dashing! I have four Hublot watches and discussed with the fashion consultant which one matches my style.”

The media asked to whom he would give the watch if he made a successful bid for it during the auction, he cleverly clarified, “Usually I cannot buy too expensive stuff. If I have to give the watch away as a gift, because I don’t have a girlfriend, I will give it to my mother.” A demonstration of his filial nature.

At the press conference, the official watch for “2011 FIA F1 World Cup Champion Series 15th Battle – Japan Grand Prix” was revealed – the “King Power F1 Suzuka” (named after the Japanese representative and using the main red and white colours of the flag). This watch is a limited edition; the “0/250″ watch was up for auction and the entire proceeds would go to the Kids Earth Fund (KEF). The ambassador is famed model Ai Tominaga who is involved in a lot of charity work.

Same as Ai Tominaga, JKS has also been much involved in charity work, and encouraged the children in the earthquake disaster zone by saying, “I received love from many Japanese, doing charity work is just a little expression of my thankfulness. Hope that the children who suffered from the earthquake will not give up hope. If one harbours a dream, it is possible to change one’s life and perspective of the world.”

A reporter chipped in a question to ask what JKS’ dream was, and his bold reply “To become an international Prince” generated laughter from the crowd.

This charity sale will be held from 7 Oct to 23 Oct,and end with a final auction in early November.
