Can Lee Jong Suk defuse the Lee Min Ho/Kim Soo Hyun fan war in China?
Lee Jong Suk fans, great news: he's one of the new models for the Chinese casual clothing brand Semir. There are close to 8,000 stores in China, and Lee Jong Suk's face is about to be plastered all over them. There's only one problem: Lee Min Ho and Kim Soo Hyun are also Semir brand models!
Now, that may not mean much to you, but in China it's a big deal because currently, there's a Lee Min Ho/Kim Soo Hyun fan war going on. The Chinese media and fans have supposedly turned these two actors into rivals, and the situation escalated after a Semir poster with both Kim Soo Hyun and Lee Min Ho was displayed. Both LMH and KSH earn top dollar when it comes to Chinese advertisements, and now Lee Jong Suk is making his way onto the battle grounds.
With the success of Doctor Stranger andI Hear Your Voice, China sees LJS as "Korea's perfect male celebrity due to his good looks and impeccable acting." With LJS on the rise in China, do you think this will defuse the LMH/KSH fan war, or is there a much bigger war brewing in the near future with all 3 fandoms?
