Kim Hyun Joong, exuding affable and charm, held his 2nd Taiwan Fan meeting yesterday. There were not only fans who dressed up in a wedding dress wanting to present herself as a birthday present to him, there was also a 70 year old grandmother who flew all the way from the United States. This grandmother gave him $3000USD (about $90,000NT) in a red packet. Hyun Joong was shocked and didn’t want to receive the gift but was told that it would be bad luck, hence accepted the gift reluctantly but will be donating it.

Hyun Joong will be celebrating his birthday on 6th June. Yesterday fans after hearing this news, including fans from Taiwan, Korea, Japan, Hong Kong and Mainland China packed National Taiwan University gym and sang him a birthday song in the Korean Language. This gesture made Hyun Joong very touched. In order to reciprocate the fans, Hyun Joong started the Hi 5 Session at 9pm which included intertwining fingers with fans and warm hugs. Until every fan has been Hi5 only then did he head back to the hotel to rest. Everyone agreed that ‘It was worth the price’.
As for the fan who was dressed as a bride, she was lucky to be selected as one of the fans to come up on stage. She requested Hyun Joong to re-enact a famous Korean designer Andre Kim’s action, and took a photo with Hyun Joong with intertwined fingers looking at the camera, to the envy of all the fans in the stadium. Ticket sales plus merchandise sales came to a total amount of $20.7m NT. Today, Hyun Joong has left at 7.45am.

金賢重受驚捐公益



中國時報【翁新涵／台北報導】

「宇宙神」金賢重，親和魅力無法擋，昨在台的第二場粉絲會，不僅有穿婚紗的歌迷，要把自己當生日禮物送給他，還有一位從美國來的70歲奶奶，送上3000元美金（約９萬台幣）的紅包，嚇得他不敢收，但對方說不收不吉利，只好勉強接下，準備轉做公益之用。


６月６日是金賢重的生日，昨聞訊而來的粉絲，除了台灣、韓國，還有大批日、港和大陸歌迷，擠滿台大體育館，合唱韓文版的生日歌，令他足感心。為回報歌迷，他從９點一直握手加十指緊扣還熱情抱抱，到最後一位歌迷，才回飯店休息，讓人大呼「值回票價」。


至於幸運被挑選上台的新娘歌迷，則在台上要求與金賢重，重演韓國知名設計師安德烈金設計的明星走秀動作，與其十指緊扣對望拍照，羨煞台下歌迷。金賢重來台的兩場粉絲會，門票加周邊商品共吸金2070萬台幣，於今天上午７點45分離台。
