Kangta's Vietnamese fans rush stage
Published on | Source
Hallyu star Kangta swept his Vietnamese fans off their feet when he performed at the "Peace Concert" held on Sept. 10 in Hanoi, Vietnam. He received a favorable response from some 2,500 fans who attended the concert.
Just like Korean fans, Kang's Vietnamese fans greeted their favorite singer with white balloons, turning the entire auditorium into a balloon sea. When the singer was leaving the stage, some 50 ardent fans ran up to him, leaving Kang with bruises on his arms and back.
From the moment he landed, multitudes of fans followed Kang everywhere he went and shouted out his name, attesting to his skyrocketing popularity in Vietnam. Although Kang has gained enormous popularity in the Chinese-speaking region, this was his first visit to Vietnam. His success in that country is quite unprecedented given that he has yet to release and promote an album there.
"I was really surprised at the overzealousness of my Vietnamese fans, which I did not expect at all as it was my first visit, but I was happy to see so many fans greeting me at the airport. If I have the opportunity, I want to give concerts in Vietnam and in many other countries in the future", said Kang.
Currently, the singer is busy preparing for the 2005 Charity Beijing Concert to be held Sept. 30 in Beijing, China, where he is expected to stage an exciting performance.
The Peace Concert in which Kang participated will be shown as part of the KBS Open Concert on Sept. 25 at 5:10 p.m.
