On Saturday, June 13, 2026, Korean actor Lee Jihoon and artist Han Seungwoo took the stage at Kanda Myojin Hall in Tokyo. The two, who are close friends off-screen, prepared a special stage for their fans in Japan. The event unfolded in a luxurious three-part format: solo fan meetings in Part 1 and Part 2 highlighting each star's unique appeal, followed by a special fan meeting in Part 3 where their chemistry truly exploded.
This report covers the 'storm of gap moe' — the charm of unexpected contrasts — made possible only because of these two.
Part 1: Lee Jihoon — 'A New Beginning in His 14th Year'
Lee Jihoon, celebrating 14 years since his acting debut, surprisingly held his first solo fan meeting in Japan. Appearing at center stage, he passionately performed Kenshi Yonezu's 'Lemon' with deep emotion. Jihoon revealed he had practiced extensively by visiting karaoke alone multiple times in preparation for this day. He became so familiar with the staff at the karaoke box from frequent visits that they were now on friendly terms. After singing the opening number — the fruit of his hard work — Jihoon placed his hand tenderly over his heart and beamed a radiant smile toward the audience.
In his initial greeting, still buzzing with excitement, he humorously admitted, 'I originally planned to walk around near the audience and shake hands with everyone, but I was so nervous I didn’t have the composure to do it.' He also powerfully declared, 'I’ve started studying from hiragana. I’ll work hard on my Japanese from now on,' expressing his strong commitment to future activities in Japan. Though Jihoon often plays cool characters in dramas, the warm, approachable smile and gentle aura he displayed within minutes of stepping on stage drew shouts from the audience like, 'This gap is too adorable!'
Throughout the talk segment, he continuously scanned the entire venue, sincerely thanking fans who had prepared cheering placards, clearly expressing his joy at finally being able to meet them in person. Responding cheerfully to the crowd’s cries of 'You’re so cute!', the conversation even shifted to stories about his beloved dog. Standing up deliberately from his chair to physically reenact the situations, he delivered the anecdotes in a humorous way that filled the hall with laughter.
In the 'Rewriting My Profile' corner, fans paid close attention to his envisioned 'future life plan.' For his life 10 years from now, he shared, 'Maybe I’ll be playing more masculine, sexy roles,' outlining his vision as a mature actor. Looking 30 years ahead, he imagined, 'I’ll probably have a wife by then. I see myself traveling with my kids. I’ll make my son a soccer player and my daughter a golfer, and we’ll enjoy traveling together while playing sports.' He painted a warm and vivid picture of family life. For 50 years into the future, he joked, 'I feel like I’ll just be sleeping all the time (laughs). Eating, sleeping, eating, sleeping…' — adding with heartfelt warmth, 'But above all, let’s all stay healthy so we can meet again like this, full of energy.'
With these passionate words about his first solo fan meeting and strong determination for future activities in Japan, Part 1 concluded on a warm and heartfelt note.
Part 2: Han Seungwoo — 'An Ultimate Healing Time with HAN_A'
Han Seungwoo, visiting Japan again following his March trip, took the stage to the refreshing opening song 'Blooming,' causing the audience’s light sticks to sway in unison. Despite revealing a busy daily life filled with preparing for acting auditions, music production, exercise, and planning for his upcoming Asia fan meeting tour, he clearly demonstrated his passion for this event by personally recording various 'daily life sounds' from his routine for the talk segment 'Secret ASMR — Seungwoo’s Sounds.'
In a corner where he challenged various missions within a 30-second time limit, he fearlessly took on physical challenges like blowing up balloons on stage and resisting blinking. While maintaining rich interaction with the audience, he revealed new sides of his personality, bringing big smiles and laughter to everyone present. Of course, in the live performance segment, he delivered powerful stages of 'I Just Want Love,' the energetic 'BURN,' and 'STOP IT.' Before anyone realized, the entire audience was on their feet, waving their light sticks and fully immersed in the moment. For HAN_A (Seungwoo’s fans), it was truly a special time where 'healing and excitement' coexisted.
The Long-Awaited Joint Stage: 'KICK & SOUL'!
In Part 3, finally, Lee Jihoon and Han Seungwoo stood together on the same stage for a special fan meeting. Having met through a soccer program, the two, dressed in stylish outfits, stood side by side in a refreshingly vibrant sight that the MC praised as 'making the stage instantly more dazzling.'
In the talk corner, they shared unfiltered, close-friend-style conversations — revealing their first impressions of each other, how they became close in private, and what they envy about one another — resulting in continuous bursts of laughter. In the following game corner, 'Chemistry Battle!' and 'Perfect Keeper!', they took quizzes testing their compatibility and played soccer-themed mini-games, showcasing seamless teamwork worthy of the title 'KICK & SOUL' and filling the venue with laughter and cheers. Jihoon, known for his cool demeanor, smiled warmly while sharing stories about his junior Seungwoo, while Seungwoo revealed a cheeky, affectionate 'little brother' side that fans rarely see — both generously showcasing new 'gap moe' moments. Finally, a luxurious collaborative singing stage was prepared, making this truly a premium moment that could only be experienced on this day.
Throughout the event, the warm and friendly bond between Jihoon and Seungwoo enveloped the venue, delivering top-quality entertainment directly to fans — a memorable day where not a single moment from Part 1 to Part 3 could be taken for granted.
Their journey is one we can’t afford to look away from!
