Lee Joon Gi’s appearance on Naver NOW saw a spike in global traffic and fan comments on the night of 17 April 2021. It was the perfect ending to Lee’s dramatic 40th Birthday-cum-20th Debut Anniversary celebrations, which involved not only his local but also his global fandom. The nearly 4-hour show was the megastar’s gift to his fans for their passion and selfless dedication as well as their enormous generosity in making his birthday this year even more joyous and special than those of the previous years. Lee’s hosting skills, as in his previous Dream One Naver NOW, were impeccable.

 







 


 


The slight intermittent blackouts caused by the massive traffic overload, however did not interfere with the audience’s obvious enjoyment of the show as Naver was well-prepared and handled the situation admirably. The studio was adorned with colourful birthday decorations. There was even a cute plastic piece that looked like a cake with candles.

 

 






The huge excitement and interest generated by Lee Joon Gi’s presence in the show became considerably feverish when his good friend, Lee Ji Eun (IU), made a surprising 'visit' to celebrate the occasion with him. Fans of the Lees listened with mounting excitement as the two superstars chatted candidly about the possibility of a long-awaited reunion, raising the hopes of many fans. The duo reminisced about their memories of the unforgettable 2016 Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo, the historical drama of all time. The fans, who have been waiting for another collaboration, couldn’t suppress their excitement. It got more thrilling when the pair praised each other to the skies. The network was swamped by a torrent of comments from fans from all over the world.

In 2016, the handsome superstar lost 35 lbs for his role as Wang So, the Fourth Prince; he looked so gorgeous and stunning that the image is permanently stuck in the minds of the audience. Lee’s athletic, lean, taut and sexy killer looks, unrivalled charms, enviable reputation and his sterling acting skills, etched in all the subsequent images of his dramas, have made him a formidable global superstar.

Live Mini Concert



The audience had another surprise treat. A mini concert. Another of Lee Joon Gi’s friends, Lim Hyun Jun, visited. The musician’s physical presence and his wonderful keyboard music provided an exciting band-cum-party feel to the atmosphere. Lim played a couple of fan favourites and the actor-singer sang cheerfully and beautifully despite suffering from a sore throat.

Lee Joon Gi, the actor with a thousand faces, is a phenomenon; he had led the Hallyu Wave before his military enlistment and upon his discharge, he has been leading the Hallyu Wave ever since. He is surprised by the passionate love and dedication of his fans who have supported him with their presence in his birthday concerts and lots of charity works carried out in his name. They have also supported his movies and dramas with many different creative projects. And this year, his birthday has been celebrated on a grand and creative scale. Lee ends his birthday celebration with a touching handwritten letter to his fans, expressing his gratitude and thanking them for their boundless love, undying loyalty and trust.

Lee says he doesn't know why he deserves to be treated like KPOP royalty but the humble multitalented superstar has not realised that he has been treated as the Number 1 Showbusiness royalty all along by his global fans; he is not just an actor but also a singer & dancer (popstar), model and martial artist. Many ‘idol singers’ have been accorded the idol treatment but it is unprecedented for a superstar outside of the ‘idol circle’ to be enjoying such royal treatment.

 



 

 



The entertaining and irresistible Lee Joon Gi Dream 2 Naver NOW talk show is a fitting end to the superstar’s 40th Birthday-cum-20th Debut Anniversary celebrations.
