AKP STAFF



Kim Hyun Joong's wax figure is now completed.

He previously had measurements done for a figure to be displayed at Madame Tussauds Busan. Madame Tussauds Busan said, "Starting from December 21st, we will be holding Kim Hyun Joong's wax figure on display."

Madame Tussauds Busan had previously displayed wax figures of Bae Yong Joon, Nichkhun, and president Lee Myung Bak, but this is the first time that Madame Tussauds Busan had chosen Kim Hyun Joong for a figure. The figure displayed is wearing Kim Hyun Joong's outfit from his Asia Tour, and even has accessories he wore during the performance that were donated to the museum.

The figure was built after 500 measurements were taken, and the total cost of the figure was said to be 200 million KRW (approximately $186,000 USD). Madame Tussauds said, "The fact that there are Korean celebrities and famous figures in the 13 Madame Tussauds all over the world means that there is a lot of interest in Hallyu stars. Kim Hyun Joong especially is a leader in spreading hallyu globally. He wrapped up his Asia Tour successfully and ranked #1 on Japan's Oricon Charts."
