I agree that actors should stick to acting. There are so many of them who are trying to do both. First of all, when do they have the time to do both? And look fabulous at the same time! Maybe they are trying to prove that there is much more to them than their pretty faces and good (mediocre?) acting.

Then again, who doesn't dream of being a rock star?

I am going to stare at Lee Byung Heon's photo for another hour or so before I absolutely must run out of the house.

*sigh*

Hi javabeans, what a nice surprise seeing LBH featured here. Love your sharing and insightful drama commentaries, btw.

But LBH isn't switching careers, merely just entertaining his fans at the "concerts".. what else can an actor do at a 2-hr session fan meets anyways. ^^
Hope it turns better than initially thought and hyped by the media.

Thanks for the gist especially, often times we wonder what the articles are really saying.

"I think actors should stick to acting unless their singing talents are exceptional. Not just at a tolerable level, but really outstanding. Cuz otherwise it’s just a vanity move — and the world doesn’t need any more mediocre singers thinking they’re better because their fans (earned through a different skill) spill over to show their support. (Conversely, I wish singers with middling acting abilities would give their acting aspirations a rest, too.)"

-Ditto and I definitely agree! But one singer turned actorish that is really good for me is Kim Dong Wan and Lee Seung Gi... They are really good actors I find.
I think the best though is to stick to ur true craft, not unless ur able to master both. Know your strengths, though sure people can try to develop their skills.
Hehehhe its not bad to dream right? It's a plus ur in showbiz already lol!

seriously, this man can stand there and sing off key all day long and i'll still love it but that's because he's sexy hot and i'm a big fan of his acting so i'm bias. lol. honestly, his singing is not bad and much better than other actors out there, i.e. lee da hae. plus, his english is much better than hers. and this whole concert thing is just a big thank you to his fans in japan who will pay top $$ to see him and hear him sing...plus it's easy money for him so why the heck not.

*saying thank you to his fans * .there always alternative of a camp or gathering . i use to remember he said one of his wish is for his fans of all nationality to gather in one place and just have a picnic .

and past fan meeting .use to be fans singing and doing things for him .probably he will sing a tune or two and that was already memorable . just recently i was even talking to a korean fan ..and we were chatting of the past when his first foregin fan meeting how his foregin fans learnt a korean song to sing it to him ....times have change i suppose .. ..

he is sincere in wanting it to be his thank you to his japanese fans .but i cant help thinking .is it because the maket demand is different now ..acting is not enough anymore . .anyway .i will prefer more to hear about his movie project plan .then .more concert tour .

hmm, as much as ilove LBH, i'd love to see him more acting.. he's sooo good at it. hehe. and I like cat house' music ^^
