What would you do if you could spend a special night with your fave oppa? For hundreds of Lee Jae Wook’s Filipino fans, they didn’t have to imagine it as it was a reality last March 11. As part of his Asian fanmeet tour, the K-drama actor flew to Manila to meet his Pinoy fans at the New Frontier Theater. To say that meeting the star of Alchemy of Souls, among other projects, in person was a moment is an understatement. Lee Jae Wook didn’t have to do too much to get his Filipino fans riled up with his head-turning visuals, talent, and natural charm. Here are some highlights from the special night.
NOTICING THE FAN IN THE BRIDAL GOWN

Fans who wear wedding gowns at fanmeets are one of God’s blessings to this world. And what made it even better was that Lee Jae Wook noticed a fan and said that she can imagine that they’re married for the day.
MAKING FANS CRAZY WITH HIS VISUALS

All he had to do was to lean back and cross his legs for the fans to go crazy. Lee Jae Wook, the man that you are.
THIS FAN DRESSING AS NAKSU
@growglowgorgeous All thanks to my most talented, so creative younger sister for bringing about this astounding #NAKSU costume for me!! 🙌 ILYSM 🥹😘 #leejaewookfanmeeting #leejaewookfirstinmnl #leejaewookfirstinmanila #janguk #alchemyofsouls #alchemyofsoulsseason2 #fyp ♬ original sound – growglowgorgeous
Filipino K-drama fans have a level of dedication that few countries can match. Case and point, aside from the fan who wore the wedding dress, another fan went all out with her Naksu costume. Dressed as Jung So Min’s character from season one of Alchemy of Souls, the fan rocked the signature red and blue garb, complete with heeled boots and a top bun. It was so good, Lee Jae Wook took notice and picked her for one of the games.
RECREATING HIS FAMOUS LINE

There are people who went from seeing him say it on Alchemy of Souls to seeing him do it in real life. How does it feel to live our dream?
PLAYING A GAME WITH THE BRIDE
@chanialiabres_ Ate kung nandito ka man sa tiktok WINNER KA!!! Pinasaya mo si jae wook HAHHAHAHAHAAAH #leejaewook #leejaewookinmanila ♬ original sound – Chania Liabres
Can someone check to see if this fan is ok? Not only was she noticed by Lee Jae Wook, but she even got to play a game with him on stage. It’s low-key giving bride and groom at their wedding reception.
SINGING TO THE CROWD

He can act and sing, too? We love a multi-hyphenate. Being serenaded by Lee Jae Wook is core-memory worthy.
GETTING EMBARRASSED BY HIS SHOW
@lieynat Kilig na kilig yarn? 💙🫰🏻 #fyp #alchemyofsouls #leejaewook #leejaewookfirstinmanila #kdrama ♬ Blue Flower – LIA (ITZY)
It’s actually normal for some actors to get shy seeing themselves on screen, especially when it’s a scene of him getting romantic with his co-star. Don’t be shy, play the rest of the clip.
SHARING HIS PLAYLIST
