LEE MIN HO in Manila

Korean actor/model LEE MIN HO arrives in Manila last November 16, 2012, he came for the Global Benchsetter Fun Meet event to be held at Smart Araneta Coliseum this November 18, 2012.

our Patron tix

Bench clothing Facebook fan page announced that redeeming of the actual ticket for the said event will start at 8'o clock in the morning. Well, I'm lucky enough that my dongsaengs will redeem our tickets! They came around 12 noon and only redeem Patron SRO (Standing), unfortunately some Patron invites was unable to redeem their actual Patron tickets. So instead of Patron tix, Bench give Upper Box A w/ meet & greet passes (well not bad huh).

According to my dongsaengs,it was already past 2pm when the line start to queue for LMH's fun meet event. Well I'm lucky enough not to experience queuing the line 'coz I arrived around 5pm and they let us in the coliseum! The thing is, some people are already pushing and screaming! (that irritates me so much)

As we pass the gate, I saw Mr Ben Chan at the entrance, a big thanks to this person who bought LEE MIN HO! Few months back he also bring my favorite/crush LEE DONGHAE together with CHOI SIWON of Super Junior! (SIHAE in Manila)

I miss Smart Araneta Coliseum, it's been a while since the last time I've been here. To be exact it was during the Smash Project - March 8, 2012, a hella night of good music performed by The Used, Chris Carraba of Dashboard Confessional, Cobra Starship and The Cab. We were also in the patron area but on the right side, this time we are in a left side.

A huge LEDs on stage already when we arrived the patron area! Woah looks like Bench really prepared for this event. As you can see, we were in fourth row which is a good view ^^ 

After hours of waiting they started the event past 7pm and so these pictures flashes to the huge LEDs onstage! Of course the coliseum was filled of screaming fans on every pictures of LEE MIN HO! Can't help smiling seeing his beautiful face! ^_^ *dies*

The first part of this event was hosted by Hans Mortel of TV5's Face to Face, he draw the winners for the autograph signing, the spin a wheel contest and the acting contest finalist.

After that, he announced that it's time for LEE MIN HO's appearance, and the countdown begins!

I'm getting ready to record the part where LEE MIN HO will take his appearance on stage, but to my surprise it was a special number for wannabe's Wonder Girls performs "Nobody"!

Followed by Down to Mars performing Super Junior's Sorry Sorry.

Then the girls of Philippine All Stars dancing to 2NE1's FIRE

PSY's Gangnam Style was performed by the guys of Philippine All Stars.

Nice opening for this event, I didn't expect that there will be front act for this! DAEBAK BENCH! ^^

So this time it's for real, LEE MIN HO finally take the stage! 

his appearance on stage

The coliseum was filled with screaming fans so loud!!! They also begin to push towards the stage to see Lee Min Ho. It really frightened me, thought that a stampede would occur that night.

I'm so speechless when I saw his beautiful face! He's real right? So handsome guy! I can't take my eye off him, even some pushes me towards the stage, well the pushing thingy come as advantage to me 'coz it takes me to the second row of the front stage! Seeing LEE MIN HO so close! 

Sam Oh interviewed Lee Min Ho, questions comes from fans tweet via Bench Twitter account.

DEFINITION OF A PERFECT MAN!

During the interview, I remember that he mentioned Boracay, as one of the places in the Philippines he wants to go. 

Biting his lips! ^^

After the short interview, they start the next activity - The LEE MIN HO look a like contest! As I will be posting this picture, 'coz I kinda know this guy, ELF "Lyndon" admin of EUNHAEHOLIC. He's so lucky to have a moment with Lee Min Ho, even he didn't win the contest , he's already a winner!

ELF w/ LMH <3

Next is the "Acting Contest", they already have pre-selected participants for this contest. When Lee Min Ho is watching he laughs, he also draw his line, so stuck watching every move he does! When he laughs or smile I can't help but smile too.

I'm so HAEPPY seeing the way he laughs and enjoy watching the participants. I can feel that he really enjoyed it.

A lucky 16 yr old girl won the acting contest, her reaction is priceless! How I wish I also won :)

Next game is the spinning game, where I've seen how sweet and nice Lee Min Ho to his fans, he even knelt down to have a picture to a winning fan 'coz we all know how tall LMH is! I envy those fans!

That was the last activity of the event, few words from Lee Min Ho and he bids good bye.
