When asked about his fan meeting in China, he explained the situation in detail.
Hong Jin Kyung: I saw an article about how you had a hard time at your fan meeting in China last year. You were drenched in sweat. What happened?
Lee Soo Hyuk: It was hot because so many people came to see me, and I thought I was the only one struggling because of the stage lighting, but I heard the fans had a tough time as well.
In particular, regarding the reports stating that the event lasted 12 hours, he denied the claims.
The article said 12 hours, but how could you do that for 12 hours? It’s not true.
