More fancams from Kim Hyun Joong's performance in Lotte Fanmeet Event in Seoul 10.13.12

I am so grateful that this was compiled for us by TheAlienPrince. Ive been wanting to see the performances he did. ^^ And can I tell you a secret? I've been loving his song 'Please' piano acoustic version a lot!! Actually, I've loved the original one, admired the RnB version, liked the rock version, and is now listening repeatedly the piano acoustic version. The song has a great impact to me whatever version it might be. Maybe because of the lyrics 'After getting drunk, I cried.'

MANILA, Philippines - Hallyu star Kim Hyun Joong's second Japanese single "HEAT" immediately debuted at the top of music charts on July 4.

Upon its release, the single sold a whopping 137,774 copies to top the Oricon daily singles chart, a record for a solo foreign artist.

"HEAT," which was composed by Japanese rock duo B'z, also topped the Tower Records Japan chart.

With at least 100,000 copies of his new single sold, Kim Hyun Joong is assured of getting a gold status certification from the Recording Industry of Japan (RIAJ).

Last July 3, Kim Hyun Joong held a hand-shaking event to mark the release of his new single in Japan. About 5,000 fans braved the rain and lined up to enter the Venus Fort shopping mall in Tokyo.

The singer and actor initially planned to shake hands with selected fans but decided to shake hands with all those who came to the event. Some of the fans spent the night outside the venue just to meet the Korean star. Another handshaking event will be held in Osaka on July 7.

In addition, Kim Hyun Joong held a guerilla performance at the DiverCity Tokyo Plaza in Odaiba, Tokyo on July 4. Despite the searing heat, the star performed "Let's Party" for about 1,000 fans who came.

Also last night, he was a guest on Fuji TV's "Non Stop" entertainment program. He will be a guest on Nippon Television Network's "Happy Music" on July 6.

On July 14, he and Japanese musician Naoto Inti Raymi will hold the "Double Fantasista: The Greatest Assist."

He is also set to hold the "Kim Hyun Joong 'Heat' 2012 in Japan" event on July 15 at the Saitama Super Arena in Saitama, Japan. The event is exclusive for buyers of his new single.

Kim Hyun Joong is also set to star in another Korean drama. It was announced earlier that he will star in the drama "City Conquest," which will be released this year.

He will start shooting in Japan, the first location of the drama, on July 10.  The filming will be held in the capital city of Utsunomiya in Tochigi Prefecture.

Kim Hyun Joong prepared drinks for fans and made a handshake to 5,000 fans

A whopping 5,000 fans did a handshake with Kim Hyun Joong. And it's not a joke of doing such event. I remember when Hyun Joong did a hi-5 event in several countries in Asia last year. Before, it used to be around 100-500 fans only. But now, it's 5,000 fans!!!!! I hope Hyun Joong did not get tired of the handshake and still puts in a smile to everyone. It was also said that he even prepared drinks to fans. ^^ We love you more for that Hyun Joong-ah! ♥

Kim Hyun Joong holds a handshake event with 5,000 fans in Japan

Before releasing his 2nd Japanese single ‘HEAT‘, Kim Hyun Joong met with roughly 5,000 fans for a handshake event to commemorate his new album release at the Tokyo Venus Port Outdoor Square on July 3rd.

The premium event was specially held for those who bought his new single album. Hundreds of fans were seen staying up and waiting in a long line a day before the event was held.

The singer was initially planning on selecting only a number of the album buyers to shake hands with, however, Kim Hyun Joong touched fans by shaking hands with all attendees. Despite the wet weather, the singer stood on stage and expressed his gratitude to the 5,000 fans as well as preparing them with cold drinks.

Meanwhile, a total of five versions of the album, including the regular and limited edition, has taken the top 5 spots on Tower Records‘ daily rankings.
