My husband’s friends told me that when they were in high school, he had a fan club because he looked like Kangta of H.O.T. (a boy group that was famous back then). Some girls from their school would take stolen shots of him and sell his photos to H.O.T. fans in their campus.
My first reaction was “Duh!”… but out of curiosity, I googled Kangta and when I saw his picture for the first time, I just had to agree… his face has some resemblance to my husband’s.

Kangta’s meek smile that melts his fans’ hearts…

Also, I found out that Kangta sang a duo with Vaness Wu who happens to be one of my favorite F4 actors during my METEOR GARDEN ADDICTION days.
Here’s the video of that duo I got from Youtube. ^^

Thanks, Disney Movie Searcher. ^^ You’re right about Super Junior. They are one of the leading boy bands in Korea these days, and they’re popular not only in other Asian countries you have mentioned but as well as in some major cities in Europe and America where they had successful concerts with other K~pop super stars from SK. =)
