Shreya from India sent today’s lovely message to Lee Min Ho in our Dear Oppa series. Below is a copy of her letter.
Dear, Lee Min Ho Oppa!
Have you ever been both anxious and excited at the same time? That’s something I’m thinking about while I write about Lee Min Ho’s magnetism right now.
When you initially joined Shinhwa High with his F4 teammates in “Boys Over Flowers,” your demeanour struck me like lightning. It was my first time viewing a Korean drama, and since then, the list has grown exponentially.
Bringing a smile to someone’s face is one of the most important things one can do, and you do it every day for millions of people. It’s incredible how his grin alleviates all of my anxiety and unhappiness. Even after many viewings of your favourite dramas, songs, interviews, and films, it still feels like the first time. My admiration and affection for you grow dramatically with each new piece you produce. Congratulations on 15 years of success. In the foreseeable future, I wish you all pleasure, good health, and prosperity. May your life take you to even higher heights.
