6,000 Fans, 2 Cities, and Endless Charm
Lee Jong Suk isn’t just your favorite K-drama heartthrob—he’s also a fan meeting king. On September 28 and 30, the actor staged back-to-back shows in Tokyo and Osaka as part of his ‘2025 LEE JONG SUK ASIA FANMEETING TOUR [With:Just Like This] in JAPAN.’
After kicking things off in Seoul on his birthday, the star brought his signature brand of warmth and fan service to 6,000 devoted fans across Japan. And yes—tickets sold out in a flash.
Stage Presence That Stole the Spotlight
Wearing shades of blue (yep, it was on-theme), Lee Jong Suk surprised fans with his energy right from the top—dancing flawlessly to TWS’s “Plot Twist”, a routine he’d practiced for two months. He also performed crowd-favorites like Jo Jung Suk’s “Aloha,” Kenshi Yonezu’s “Lemon,” and aespa’s “Whiplash.” Yes, he went from mellow ballads to girl group swag in one setlist. Impressive? Absolutely.
Fan Fun: Games, Jokes, and Dress Codes
From talk segments to team relay games, Lee packed the events with activities that screamed custom-made for fans. He even played style judge, zooming in with a camera to pick out best-dressed fans. One lucky attendee described the energy as “like being at a K-drama with 2,999 co-stars who are just as obsessed.”
In Osaka, actor Kang Yoon Seok (aka Jo Chang Won in “Seocho-dong”) made a surprise guest appearance. Cue fan squeals. At one point, Lee grabbed his hand and gushed, “I wanted to introduce my cute junior to you all.” The bromance? Real.
Personal Touches That Melted Hearts
Lee didn’t just sing and dance—he bonded. He strolled through the venues (yes, literally), stopping to make eye contact and wave at every corner, saying, “I want to be close to all of you.” Fans definitely felt the love.
He also spilled tea during a cozy Q&A, confessing that he always eats shabu-shabu, beef bowls, yakiniku, and eel every time he’s in Japan. Ten years and counting, people. Some routines never die.
Art, Emotions, and Farewells
Among other highlights: hilarious stories from fans about when they first “fell for Lee Jong Suk,” fan art that left him visibly touched, and a finale that saw the actor teary-eyed as he waved goodbye in Tokyo.
The trip wrapped with an encore in Osaka and lingering hearts still full. And if the rest of his seven-city tour looks anything like this? Hallyu fans are in for a treat.
