The boy group RIIZE made a huge splash in Bangkok, Thailand, over three days, proving their K-pop star power.

RIIZE held their '2024 RIIZE FAN-CON 'RIIZING DAY' in BANGKOK' at the Thunder Dome on July 27th and 28th. Both days were sold out, with around 10,000 fans cheering them on.

The fan-con featured a variety of performances and activities, including hits like 'Boom Boom Bass,' 'Love 119,' 'Talk Saxy,' and 'Get A Guitar,' as well as fun games and talks. Local media took notice, with 50 outlets covering the event, including Ch7HD, Ch9, Thairath TV, Daily News, KhaoSod, L'Officiel Hommes Thailand, and Sanook.

The members of RIIZE shared their excitement, saying, "When we first came to Thailand last year for 'Get A Guitar,' we dreamed of holding a concert here with many fans. We’re thrilled to make great memories with our fans, Breeze, and we’re so grateful for the warm welcome."

Before the fan-con, on July 26th, RIIZE visited a pop-up store at Emsphere shopping mall in Bangkok to celebrate the release of their first mini-album 'RIIZING.' They also held a fan signing event at the mall, creating special moments with local fans.

The pop-up store was a hit, with long lines and around 1,000 visitors daily since its opening on July 24th, leading to sold-out items. The store will stay open until August 4th.

After their Bangkok fan-con, RIIZE will head to Japan for their '2024 RIIZE FAN-CON 'RIIZING DAY' JAPAN HALL TOUR,' starting on July 30th with 15 shows in nine cities. They will continue their tour with a stop in Jakarta, Indonesia on August 31st.

Actor Lee Min Ho recently shared an unforgettable and embarrassing moment from his early career, revealing how he became a “falling star” at his first Baeksang Arts Awards.

On the December 25th episode of You Quiz on the Block (Episode 274), Lee Min Ho made a guest appearance and reflected on his rise to fame.

The actor, known for his iconic role as Goo Jun Pyo in Boys Over Flowers, won the Best New Actor award at the Baeksang Arts Awards, but it wasn’t just his victory that grabbed attention.

Lee Min Ho recalled, "I was attending the Baeksang for the first time, and I was so excited. Since I wasn’t going as Goo Jun Pyo, but as Lee Min Ho, I styled my hair in a perm and was ready to go." However, things took an unexpected turn when he tripped and fell on the red carpet.

He sighed, recalling, "That day, I fell. I fell and created so many memes. Even now, I look back and think, 'How did I walk that quickly on the red carpet?'"

Laughing at his own clumsiness, he admitted, "I was moving at the speed of light, no composure, no focus. Honestly, more than the joy of winning the award, that day was chaotic and so embarrassing for me."

Though his win was a highlight, Lee Min Ho humorously shared that the incident of tripping overshadowed the excitement of his achievement.

It’s safe to say that while the fall became a funny meme, it also became a lesson in humility for the actor, and a moment that fans still remember to this day.
