Lee Minho's huge popularity in Thailand is undeniable especially after Boys Over Flowers and him flying over to Bangkok to film a commercial in April. But there will be some who would try to cash in on his popularity through illegal means and that's exactly what happened to Lee Minho recently. It was revealed on a Thai website that a Lee Minho fanmeeting in Bangkok, will be taking place on 24th October, at a venue which would house 2,000 fans. It caused confusion among fans when ticket prices were jacked up from the original price of 200,000 KRW to 800,000 KRW (640 USD), with accomodation and food provided. The website also indicated that Lee Minho would be singing 2 songs, playing games with 2 - 3 lucky fans and a showing of Lee Minho's past movies/dramas. But nothing of this is actually or will actually be happening. Lee Minho's management agency, Starhaus Entertainment was equally surprised to learn about this, "We never received any notification about this and do not have plans for such an event at all." Starhaus Entertainment felt that this amounted to a scam and wrote on Lee Minho's official site, "We will not be having any events in Thailand. That fanmeeting in Thailand is not true and we have already taken measures against that website. In future, we will only post any events regarding to Lee Minho on his official website only."
