Fleeting yet unforgettable — that’s how Lee Jun Hyuk’s Filipino fans will remember his [LET ME IN] 2025 Fan Meeting in Manila. With genuine fan service, charming efforts to speak Filipino, and shared moments that created lasting memories, he captivated hearts in just a few hours and left an impression that will last forever.

Fans went wild as a dashing Lee Jun Hyuk took the stage, soaking in the moment before shyly greeting his ecstatic fans. Host Denise Laurel—praised by LJH for her hosting—kicked off the fan meeting with him trying the famous Filipino dessert, halo-halo. He enjoyed the sweet treat so much he joked about leaving first so he could finish it elsewhere. When asked where he wanted to go in the Philippines, fans suggested Palawan, Boracay, and Siargao, but Lee Jun Hyuk said that what stuck with him most was the pretty local cinema he saw with a seasoned potatoes stand outside. Denise, noting his love for boxing, teased that he should meet Manny Pacquiao in General Santos. Smiling, Lee Jun Hyuk recalled getting punched by Ma Dong Seok in a scene and said he’d love to be hit by Pacquiao too!

Lee Jun Hyuk was genuinely moved to discover that his Filipino fans knew about his picture book, Annyeong, Popcorn—a heartfelt tribute to his dog, Popcorn, who passed away years ago. He also developed a game of the same name to help “fill the emptiness” left by his beloved pet. Some fans even brought their copies of the book to the event, while a lucky fan got to take home a signed copy. Adding to its meaning, proceeds from the book are being donated to a charitable cause.


Here’s a quick but thrilling rundown of everything that went down during the first segment of Lee Jun Hyuk’s fan meeting:


LET ME CHECK
1. Similarities with Love Scout’s Yoo Eun Ho.
When asked how similar he is to hi swoon-worthy character, “Daddy Yoo“, Lee Jun Hyuk confidently said that they are similar.

2. The Body Part He’s Most Confident About.
In a fun exchange with host Denise Laurel, she asked fans to guess which body part LJH would choose as his best feature. As fans gave suggestions like his aegyosal, nose, lips, and even earlobes, Lee Jun Hyuk surprised everyone by picking his hands! He admitted that he often gets compliments for having “pretty hands”. (And yes, we agree— proof is on the 6th episode of Love Scout)

3. A Recap of Love Scout’s Kilig Scenes.
As photos from his most heart-fluttering scenes flashed onscreen, Lee Jun Hyuk was asked to pick the most kilig scene for him. His choice? The scene where he was protecting actress Han Ji Min from reporters while he is holding her! He also shared about filming one-take scenes, saying they were nerve-wracking but incredibly rewarding when done right. Of course, the Gwanghwamun Kiss and Bookshelf Kiss Scenes were not left out. He also mentioned that it wasn’t just about sharing a sweet scene with his co-actor, those scenes were technically demanding, requiring careful planning and attention to detail for them to deliver the perfect scene.

MY PERFECT LJH
In this segment, fans had the chance to get up close and interact with Lee Jun Hyuk on stage, re-enacting some of the most memorable kilig scenes from Love Scout. From the iconic bookshelf moment to the collar-fixing, rain, and basketball scenes, the lucky fans were truly living the dream. Not only were they carried, hugged, and lovingly stared at by their favorite actor, they also got to pose for Polaroids which they took home as special keepsakes. To top it all off, Lee Jun Hyuk personally escorted them down the stage like the true gentleman he is. What made it even more admirable? He respectfully asked for consent before re-enacting the scenes with his fans. We stan a respectful king!

LET ME GAME
Another fan interaction segment gave Lee Jun Hyuk the chance to play games with his fans. The first game, a stacking challenge, proved a bit tricky for him—but in true LJH fashion, he stayed playful and charming throughout. After the game, he gifted the props to a few lucky fans and encouraged them to try it at home. The second game involved bouncing ping pong balls into egg cartons. Instead of participating alongside the two chosen fans, he surprised the crowd by signing some of the ping pong balls and tossing them into the audience—a spontaneous and memorable treat! After playing games, a board full of messages for the actor were also put on stage. Fans with their chosen sticky notes by LJH were also able to interact with the captivating actor and take selcas with him too.

To cap off the segment, LJH serenaded fans with a heartfelt rendition of Kim Dong Ryul’s beloved classic, “Like a Child.” His gentle vocals brought a tender, emotional touch to the fan meeting, leaving the audience in awe. It was a rare and special treat for fans to hear him sing live—one they’ll surely remember for a long time. We also agree with what he said, during this number, “Parang panaginip ang araw na ito. Salamat po.”

Just when everyone thought that we’re down to the last segment of the fan meeting, LJH surprised the crowd by returning to the stage as the ever-charismatic Secretary Yoo—instantly melting hearts all over again. To the fans’ delight, he stepped down from the stage to get even closer to them, creating a truly unforgettable moment. Back on stage, he expressed his heartfelt thanks for the warm Filipino welcome, wished everyone good health, and ended with a sweet and sincere “mahal kita,” leaving the audience swooning one last time.

The night wrapped up with everyone beaming from ear to ear—especially after the much-awaited hi-bye session, where every single ticketholder got abrief face-to-face with Lee Jun Hyuk himself. It was the perfect cherry on top of a fan meeting filled with kilig, laughter, surprises, and heartfelt moments. And just like the title promised, Let Me In wasn’t just a show—it was a feeling. By the end of the night, there was no doubt: Lee Jun Hyuk didn’t just ask to be let in… he walked right into every fan’s heart and made himself at home. A core memory unlocked!
