LBS fan meeting-7


Park: Shall we invite him on the show? (Fans: sure~please~)
Park: I am sure my choice was excellent. How many fruits I’ve got here today!

All right, I will have LBS in the talk show. However, without your request, it won’t come true. Please keep asking to invite him.

Anyway, it’s the time!

(then singing a song, LBS appears in a black suit)

He should use a cheat paper.

(LBS finished singing a song, Lights on, and LBS and Park are walking to the middle of the stage).


You know what. LBS has his unique vocal style. (then Park is coping how LBS is singing) Great! Actually LBS hardly sings a song in public. I once saw him singing on his birthday. Wow…I was really moved…It was very impressive on me because..because..how confident he was in singing!! Hahahahahaha (Park has a big laugh)

Okay, now, it’s time to know about LBS.

A board is set up in the middle of the stage.
LBS and Park sat next to it.

Title is…who LBS is?!

For this session, we asked LBS fans what they want to know about him. And then we chose top 5 “want-to-know” questions. Those questions are hidden behind of this board.

I am going to ask LBS each of them in order. Before beginning with them, personally I want to ask him this one. I think as time goes, he is more and more stylish and fashionable. (fans: no he is chic by nature!)

Park: what? So then you’ve watched him longer than me? I’ve met him for a quite long time!! (Fans disagreed with him and yelled against Park’s response)

Park: Okay okay, so then you’ve seen his fashion sense since his birth, how great!!!

Anyway it is no wonder that he has a good fashion sense. He is so chic that I am motivated to look better. Look at his shoes! I don’t think these shoes suit everyone. LBS, please talk about your fashion style. I must say you have an eye for fashion!

You overrate me. I said the same comment when I had an interview though..Initially..I thought that actor is always paid attention by others. So I didn’t want to let my life I mean off screen life being paid attention…so I used to wear naturally. A tee shirt and a jean and a cap..that was enough. I didn’t care fashion sense something like that at all. Probably one and a half years ago I thought in that way…

(Park said in triumph)
Listen! Once upon a time, LBS was far from fashionable!

One day I thought about why I wanted to be an actor. I think I like to do something in front of other people. I enjoy acting myself and being applauded by the performance. I am pleased to be praised by acting. And I am proud of it…those are the very reason why I chose the school of theatre and cinema acting. Recalling the memories, I thought “then, this is not good and this is not enough.” Then I began to look over the clothes in the closet and spend more time to match the clothes. I’ve heard that I have an eye for fashion since then.

Second reason of my transformation is…all of the characters I performed in my career had nothing to do with being stylish. (laughs) I am serious. And I tried to fit myself from head to toes to become the character. When I was supposed to act a rural rustic, I prepared the clothes to look boorish.

Park: I think LBS deserves to be called as an entertainer. His stylish is especially distinguished in winter. For example, when I saw him wearing a muffler in a really unique way, I felt a sort of force from him. Yeah, he is a dude.

LBS: always…I always…whenever I am choosing the clothes in front of the mirror…I always think not to go too far. I always think my early career. At that time, I used to ask myself…”hey, why you are trying to look stylish.” Or “are you doing the right thing now? I used to ask myself that. The same Q&A now As an actor, I try not to be too much in fashion. I have my own standard and try not to go beyond its threshold. Within my own limit, I enjoy wearing the clothes in my own way.

Park: Your answer reminded me of a memory. I was impressed on him when you said “Su Hong, I think as an actor, I believe as an actor..” like that. and then LBS said “there are something to be experienced and not. If it’s allowed, as a profession, we need to try to experience all of them. Our experiences would be expressed in our work.”

Although LBS does not like drinking, he asked me to drink at the moment. So I said “LBS what’s wrong with you?” and he said “we should drink.” He may not remember this episode though as he did drink much. And then LBS advised me to quit smoking. He was not the person to say something firmly, so I was surprised to hear that. I was not serious to his advice and just repeated to say “Of course, sure, why not, actually I quit” like that. And I even pretended to cut a cigarette into half. But LBS was serious. He said “no! not that! I never thought I should quit smoking. But when I thought I should, I never thought of smoking again. I totally ignored it. We need to be able to control ourselves. Only when we can control our desires, we can be the person who can stand our colors in front of other people. Can’t we?”
You know what? The forces coming out from LBS’s comment were so powerful that I wished to hide away from him for a while (laughs) just because I was fearful to hear his command again “Su Hong, quit smoking.” (smile) anyway, LBS is firm in some aspects.

Let’s begin top 5 questions you want to know about LBS.
