The Meeting With Lee Min-ho That Wasn't


Scores of Lee Min-ho fans who waited for hours at Plaza Singapura on last Saturday evening for a glimpse of ETUDE's new poster boy must have been crushed, literally and metaphorically, when organisers of the meet the star event decided to cancel for security reasons. Has ETUDE bitten off more than it can chew by hiring the hugely popular actor of Boys Over Flowers fame?  Those involved in arranging the event did not anticipate such a large turn-out in Orchard Road. Signs of the backlash may be read in various forums dedicated to Lee - a number of disappointed fans who bought a lot of ETUDE merchandise in the hope of getting him to autograph his poster must be feeling very sore, to say the least. What kind of impact would it have on the long-term sales and image of ETUDE?

Fans on the other side of the Causeway who had heard about the cancellation in Singapore could breathe a sigh of relief that a similar event in a much smaller venue in Sungai Wang Plaza wasn't axed as well.
