Hong Kong news, 30 April – Korean star Jang Keun Suk is in Hong Kong recently to prepare for his “2011 Jang Keun Suk The Cri Show HK” to be held tonight. Yesterday, JKS appeared at Kwun Tong for promotion and attracted 800 fans who were there to catch a glimpse of their idol. JKS was very friendly, smiling and waving at fans and blowing them kisses, which made fans scream. During the ice-breaking ceremony, he was mischievous and smashed the ice to bits.

“2011 Jang Keun Suk The Cri Show HK” will be held tonight at Hong Kong International Trade and Conventional Centre. JKS was in Hong Kong two days ago for preparation and promotion, and attended the press conference yesterday at apm Kwun Tong, which attracted 800 fans in support of their idol. In a gray suit and with his hair dyed gold, screams erupted the moment Jang Keun Suk appeared. He greeted fans in Cantonese and also waved at fans on the second and third floor.

The organisers arranged an ice-breaking ceremony for JKS and his agent company to signify his entry to the Chinese market. At first, JKS hit the ice gently and nothing happened. The next second, the ‘A’ in “Asia” fell over and gave him a little scare. It then evoked his playfulness and he hit the other letters off to the floor, even including small bits of ice and thus successfully concluding the ceremony. When he received the new iPad2 given by his company’s senior management, JKS cried out in surprise. Fans prepared a cake for JKS, who executed the same pose as his mini-figurine on the cake for the media to take photographs. In addition, JKS secretly put a letter from the cake into his mouth but maybe because it did not taste nice, so he put it back on the cake again after two licks. It was quite funny. Fans had also contributed HK$15,000 to Red Cross, which made him very touched.

This is JKS’ third time to Hong Kong. He said that last year, due to fans’ extreme enthusiasm, he could only stay in the hotel and not go out sight-seeing, so he hopes that he can see Hong Kong’s night scenery. But he has already had a taste of his favourite dishes. In mid-April, he had officially signed an exclusive contract with HS Media and on Wed 27 April, he has released his single album “Let me cry” which sold 16,000 copies on its first day and surpassed Girls Generation’s new album to top Oricon sales chart that day. JKS said, “Very happy about the good results, and thanks very much to fans’ support. I hope to have more development in the Greater China region.”

The transformation from an actor to a singer has made JKS feel excited and nervous. He feels that being a singer is a big challenge. When asked what message he has for Hong Kong fans, JKS said with a laugh that he always received much warm support from fans when he comes to Hong Kong, and he feels excited when he hears fans call his name. JKS said that tonight is not only a fans meeting, and there will be many special performances but he refuses to divulge more. Fans will have to come for the performance to find out. He will also sing his new song “Let me cry”. The entire press conference lasted 20 minutes and before JKS left, he told fans in English, “Bye bye, see you tomorrow.”

北京时间4月30日消息，据香港文汇报报道，韩星张根硕日前来港准备今晚举行的《2011张根硕THE CRI SHOW HK》演唱会，他昨天在观塘宣传，吸引八百名Fans到场一睹偶像风采。张根硕非常亲民，不时微笑向Fans挥手，又三度送飞吻，令Fans不停尖叫。他进行破冰仪式时，更把冰雕敲个粉碎，十分顽皮。

《2011张根硕THE CRI SHOW HK》在今晚在九龙湾国际展贸中心汇星举行，张根硕前晚来港准备兼宣传，并于昨天在观塘apm举行发布会，吸引八百多名Fans前来支持偶像。穿着灰色西装、染了金发的张根硕一出场，即惹来Fans尖叫连连，他以广东话向Fans打招呼，他笑说：“大家好，香港，大家好。”又向第二、三层的Fans挥手，非常识做。

收iPad2开心到哇哇叫

大会安排张根硕和经理人公司一起进行破冰仪式，寓意他打入大中华市场，起初他轻力一敲，冰雕丝毫不动，只是不出一秒，冰上的ASIA字样的“A”突然掉落地，吓了他一跳，但随即他玩心大起，出尽力把余下的“SIA”打落地上，连小冰块都不放过，成功完成破冰任务。当他收到公司高层送上的最新iPad2时，惊喜到“哇”的一声。Fans准备了公仔蛋糕给张根硕，他摆出和公仔一模一样的动作让传媒拍照外，还偷把蛋糕上的字母装饰放入口，但不知是否不好吃，舔了两口又放回原处，相当搞笑。期间Fans以其名义捐出一万五千元给红十字会，令他非常感动。

盼可欣赏维港夜景

这次是张根硕第三次来香港，他笑称去年都有来港开歌迷见面会，但由于Fans太过热情，他只能留在酒店，没有到处游玩，希望这次能看到香港的夜景，但就已经吃过了最喜欢的菠菜。他在四月中正式签约大中华独家经理人公司，并于本周三在日本首先推出第一张个人小碟《Let Me Cry》，碟第一天已卖出16万张，更力压少女时代的新碟夺得Oricon小碟当天排行榜榜首。他称：“很开心成绩很好，非常感谢Fans的支持，希望以后能在大中华地区多些发展。”

从演员转型做歌手，张根硕觉得既兴奋又紧张，觉得做歌手是个很大的挑战。问到他有甚么话想对香港Fans说？他笑称每次来港都得到Fans热情的支持，每次听到Fans叫他的名字都觉得很兴奋，又说今晚的音乐会并非只是Fans meeting，会有很多特别的演出，却不肯透露是什么，只叫Fans进场欣赏，但表示将会首次现场表演其新歌《Let Me Cry》。整个记者会历时约二十分钟，张根硕离开时也不忘以英文和Fans说：“Bye bye,see you tomorrow。”
