Song Joong-ki met with over 4,000 fans at the Thunder Dome for the '2016 Song Joong-ki Asian Fan Meeting in Bangkoo on May 7. Even though it's been about a month since the last airing of drama "Descendants of the Sun" ended, the popularity hasn't subsided.

The ticket sales began last month and 4,000 seats sold out as soon as it opened. It's been 4 years since the 2012 fan meeting and the size has doubled as well as Song Joong-ki's popularity.

There were several flash cards of Song Joong-ki 'I love you' and 'National husband is here' at the airport on the 4th of May when he arrived in Thailand. Around the fan meeting location were fans who weren't able to get their tickets on time.

Prior to the fan meeting, Song Joong-ki had interviews with local media and he arrived at 7PM in beige pants and a white shirt. He was surprised by the enormous greeting from fans and was bowing down the Buddhism way shortly after.

For 3 hours, he kept talking about his most favorite "Descendants of the Sun" scenes and some of them were: tying Song Hye-kyo's shoelaces, taking her cell phone, doing her necklace and more. He also introduced the songs, "Always" by Yoon Mi-rae and "Like A Child" by Kim Dong-yool, which are a couple of OSTs from the drama. Fans thanked him by holding up "I Love You Song Joong-ki" signs.

Meanwhile, Song Joong-ki will be going around China from the 14th to the 25th for his fan meeting.
