Recognized for his slim legs, Taiwanese fans of Kim Woo Bin gave him the nickname "Long-legged male god."
On March 23, in the episode of MBC's "Section TV Entertainment Relay," the actor journeyed to Taiwan for a fan meeting with his local fans. The event was held on March 15 at a site fitting up to 1,500 people, the tickets were sold out just in five minutes. Because of the high request of fans, another meeting has been made, and has been also sold out at once.
A representative of his agency stated, "A staff member in Taiwan said that he [Kim Woo Bin] is called 'Long-legged male god' in Taiwan. The amount of fans surprised him, but he made eye contact with the fans and acted in a caring way."
"He prepared a song for his fans. It is something he feels very unconfident about, so he put a lot of effort into it. In addition, he prepared a simple game, and gave them gifts and draw for them," the source added.
Though it was ordinary for stars to be featured on magazines after a big event, Kim Woo Bin ruled the pages of various local magazines for three days straight.
The star has gained his popularity through SBS' "The Heirs," and become one of the hottest actors in Asia. On April 5, Kim Woo Bin is scheduled to meet his fans in Thailand, selling out all 2,500 seats less than 15 minutes.
