<VTR>

H: In the VTR, there is a photo of you when you were a kid. What’s the story behind?

M: Which photo?

H: (To audience) Which photo?

A: The naked one.

H: The naked one.

M: I was too young to remember anything about the photo (LOL). That’s the only naked photo taken after i was one year old. Another photo was taken when i participated in a debate competition. Is there similar competition in Japan?

H: Yes, like speech contest. 

M: Actually i was an introverted kid, and dared not speak aloud in front of people, so my parents encouraged me to compete in the contest.

<Next is Q&A section>

H: So you will answer any questions we ask?

M: Yes.

H: How did you spend your time on 31 December? Please be honest.

M: Why did you add that 'be honest’? So you think i would lie?

H: No no no, we are just curious to know what you did on that date.

M: I’m turning 30 according to Korean tradition, so i had dinner at home with my family, then went out to celebrate with my friends.

H: Did you ever get upset? What’s the worst thing you have done when you were upset?

M: I’m so upset that i’m turning 30.

H: Does it bother you?

M: Yes, i’m not happy about it, because i feel like my youth is passing away.

H: Don’t think it that way. Look at us. We are all very young, although we are much more than 30 years old. (All laugh) Thanks to you MinHo, we have been enjoying our youth. (All applaud) No worries, MinHo.

M: When i get upset, i don’t have special ways to relieve the stress. Sometimes i sleep for 15 hours. Sometimes i shout at home.

H: Next, let’s see the biography of MinHo. What’s the difference from now and 9 years ago?

M: I've won lots of prizes. (All applaud)

<MinHo’s biography is shown on screen>

H: Birthday: 22 June, 1987; Constellation: Cancer; Height: 186cm; Weight: 68kg.

M: Ah! It’s not that i grow, but my height is actually 187cm, and my weight is 73kg.

H: One centimeter higher, but 5 kilograms heavier, is that right? (All laugh) Very fit!

<Except for height and weight, we’d like to put other measurement on MinHo’s biography, so a lucky fan will come to stage and measure his size on the spot.>

M: There are so many draw-lots moments.

H: Where shall we measure? Shoulder?

M: How about the waist? My waistline changes frequently, so i’d like to measure it.

H: That’s MinHo! Normally people don't wanna show this to the public, but he asked for it…Well, to measure your waist, we will have to put the arms around you. How shall we do it? In front or from behind?

M: How about this? You can measure my waist twice, then measure wherever you want to.

H: Seriously? Where shall we begin?

M: Why are you staring at me like that?

<MinHo opened his arms for the convenience of measurement>

M: Wait a second. You are not measuring my waist, not my chest either. It’s somewhere between. My waist is here.

H: 85cm.

M: Measure another part, please.

H: Next is the chest. Where is the peak? (Host got too excited.) It should be up there, where the nipples are.

(hetty & miladuo: we are blind now.)

H: 95cm, about my size. (All laugh)

M: It’s a rare chance. Let’s take a photo together.

<Photo time>

H: Waist 85cm, chest 95cm. Close to your expectation?

M: Waist 85cm…sounds big.

H: So it’s usually smaller?

M: I’m not sure.

H: Next is the family members. Father, mother and sister. Have you ever thought of having more family members? (So clever. All laugh)

M: I forgot putting Choco on the list.

H: Will you help Choco to have more family members?

M: She has never had a baby. She didn’t even meet her Mr. Right.

H: How can she meet someone else when you are around?! Next, your favorite game is Star Craft. Do you play games a lot?

M: Not as much as before. I only play games during my trip now.

H: The most touching movie is <A beautiful mind> (2001). Any other movies afterwards?

M: I watch movies a lot, and there are many good movies i like. For example, <Tokyo Tower> (Japanese) is a great movie. I’d like to put it on my biography. And <Gangnam Blues> as well.

H: You are so cool in the movie, and showed a completely different MinHo to us. Next, you scored 80 in your self-evaluation 9 years ago, how about now?

M: 81

H: Why did you add one more point?

M: It’s for what i have done. I will do my best to fill the rest 19 points in the future. (All applaud)

H: If you are one of Minoz, what would you like about MinHo?

M: Well…it’s quite difficult to find my own merit. (To audience) What do you think?

A: Smart! Handsome! Smily! Acting skill...

M: Optimistic. Perhaps people like me because i can bring positive energy to you. You won’t feel negative when you see me. You will gain momentum from me. It’s probably the reason you like me. (All applaud)

H: It’s true that every time i see MinHo, i become bright and optimistic. He has the power of making us happy.

<Song + VTR, change clothes>

M: How is my outfit?

H: (To audience) What do you think? Simple but nice. MinHo has played in many kinds of drama, like romance, action, costume…What kind of drama would you like to try in future?

M: Mmmm…Mmmm…It’s hard to say.

H: Is it because there are too many in your mind?

M: Indeed there are many things i’d like to try, but since it’s the last works in my 20’s, i would have some concerns. I’d like to select a proper drama which i can well portray the character.

H: I assume that your fans are eager to see your next drama, right? (All applaud) With regard to the topic, do you have any word to your fans? No matter what kind of drama i play, i won’t let you down, something like that?

M: Mmmm…Mmmm…In my previous works, my roles were either hurt inside or carrying a lot, so i planned to play in a lighter and merrier drama. I guess you would like to see that kind of role. If it’s TV series, it would be a romance. I’d like to play a role who can turn you on.

H: Let’s get burning up! MinHo and Minoz have done a lot of things together. Every time i see these moments, i feel so touched. Next, let’s review the moments with MinHo.

<PMZ VTR>

H: What’s the purpose of these activities?

M: In the first beginning, it’s my fans who took the initiative to do charity. They took the lead to spread love and kindness. It triggered me to help those in difficulty. You have given me lots of love, and i wanted to spread the love to all. That’s the purpose.

H: What are you aiming for?

M: I don’t have big ambition or a specific reason for doing so. It’s like the way i get along with my fans. We get to know each other day by day. If you agree with us, you can join us on PMZ and spread your love.

H: I will join you and Minoz for the charity events in the future.

Song <선물>

H: You sing better and better. Did you have a good time with us?

M: Last year i sang a lot of songs in my concert. It was an exciting concert. Today i talked a lot about myself and my works. It’s a quieter concert. It’s different. Last year you stood up singing and dancing with me. We had a great time together. Today some friends might be the first time to join my concert, but i feel contented to talk with you all in such a quiet atmosphere. 

H: What kind of meeting would you plan, when you come next time?

M: I know that you have been looking forward to my next drama, so i will focus on my works, and come to meet you with my works. I hope that next time we can talk about my works and sing my songs in a concert.

H: Wow, i’m looking forward to it. Please do invite me again. I will be waiting. Please take care. Here comes the last song. Which one is it?

M: <Stalker>. It’s the song that Japanese friends sang and danced with me last year. Today you can just sit there listening and enjoying a bit. It’s very cold recently. Please take care of yourselves and be healthy. I will come back with my new works soon.

<All stood up, sang and danced with MinHo. MinHo said ‘i love you’ in Japanese, and made a gesture of love. Exit.>

<VTR>

Encore song <Thank you>.

写在前面的话：作为Minoz的一员，总是想千方百计地了解敏镐多一点，不想错过他的只言片语，这样的心情我们都一样吧?! 所以当不懂韩文和日文的我们看到中文翻译时都心存感激，所以当我看到Hetty说有海外粉丝需要英文翻译时，就毛遂自荐接下了这个任务，因为那样的心情我是感同身受的。—— miladuo

以下是英文翻译内容。原文请见http://weibo.com/p/1001603935885585469239

Hetty: Due to my work schedule, i only attended the first talk concert in Yokohama, therefore the content is based on the first talk concert. There are a lot of information, so i will divide it into two parts, and omit some of the MC script, but MinHo's part will be highlighted (LOL). Apologies!

****************************************************

M=MinHo, H=Host, A=Audience, F=Fan

Song <그때처럼>

H: Please say hello to everyone.

M: Hello, i am Lee Min Ho. Long time no see. Happy New Year!

H: Happy New Year, MinHo! Please say Happy New Year to all one more time, you will get a response.

M: Happy New Year!

A: Glad to meet you!

Host translated it for MinHo, and he said 'Oh~~~'.

H: You still look so charming.

M: I arrived here last evening. I was a bit worried that it would be very cold today, but it's warmer than yesterday. I feel like i am blessed.

H: You wear white coat today. Very nice, especially the turtle neck, and the white jacket.  Are you keen on white clothes recently?

M: Not really. I just think that white clothes fit well with the winter, and most white clothes look very nice.

H: You just held a similar concert in Seoul. How do you feel?

M: Fantastic! Since <Boys Over Flowers>, Minoz and i have been together for 6-7 years. I am happy that i have such a chance to talk with you, and to tell you my story. It's the purpose of the talk concert.

H: According to Japanese tradition, you are 29 years old now, right?

M: I was born on 22 June. My birthday hasn't come yet, so i am still 28.

H: Big boy now...Let's review the 20's of MinHo.

<VTR>

H: How do you think of your image of 'the young Lord’ and 'handsome boy'?

M: I don't think that the young Lord is bad image. Compared with poor lads, the young Lord is better. I assume that <Boys Over Flowers> has big impact on it, which makes me look superior, even though my roles are not rich in <Personal Taste> and <Faith>. 

H: Indeed MinHo looks quite superior, and very suitable for the role of rich boys. How is your financial situation in real life? Is it similar to the role you played?

M: I can feed myself. 

H: If you starred <Gangnam Blues> first, instead of <Boys Over Flowers>, your image could be different, right?

M: If so, people might think that i can fight well.

H: Do you fight well in real life?

M: I haven't fought with anyone for a long time, but i used to fight a lot when i was a kid.

H: So adorable! I can even imagine you being a naughty boy.

<VTR: famous scene of MinHo's TV)

H: Which one will you choose?

M: After watching this VTR, i realize that there are two TV production originated from Japan, i.e. <Boys Over Flowers> and <City Hunter>. My favarite is a line from General Choe Yeong.

H: You must have remembered the line.

M: Yes, i do remember.

H: Could you please say the line now?

M: Okay.

H: (To audience) Please be quiet.

M: ...

(Hetty's note: MinHo was too shy to say it, so he laughed and stopped half way.)

H: MinHo does not only has good-looking face, but also has good-sounding voice.

M: Thank you.

H: In the TV series, MinHo has shown us lots of images, and there are also some intimate scene. When we watch this kind of scene, we would feel jealous. We may also have fantasy that we are the actress. That's one of the fun things when we watch TV. Well, you may blush, but we have prepared a VTR with some intimate scene. 

M: I'm getting nervous.

<VTR>

H: No kissing. How do you feel after watching the VTR?

M: Those intimate scene are not hardcore at all. (Host laugh)

H: Since we have watched the scene, we would like to play it as well, right? Who wants to come to stage and play the intimate scene with MinHo?

<Draw lots>

H: We will choose one of the audience to reproduce these scene. Which scene do you prefer?

M: I'm a bit concerned about the scene of bridal-style hug. It depends on how much she weights. Others would be fine. (All laugh)

<The lucky fan went to stage.>

M: (After measuring the fan with the eye) I'm relieved now. It would be fine if we go with the scene of bridal-style hug. 

H: (To the fan) Which one would you like?

F: I'm a big fan of <Faith>.

H: <Faith>. That means...(bridal-style hug). We have to ask MinHo. There will be trouble if he fails. How is your waist today? (All laugh)

M: No problem. Chances are that she may fall, but i can try. Wait a second. Let me warm up.

H: Sure. You will have to pick up dozens of kilograms.

M: (Emphasize) Not because she is heavy.

<MinHo picked up the fan and put her on the sofa gently.>

H: Wow, you are so sweet. Do you practise a lot?

M: No no...I can't breathe now.

H: It seems that there is no intimate scence beyond kissing.

M: What kind of scence is beyond kissing? (All laugh)

H: For example, in <Personal Taste>, there is a scene that you pull off the bra strap of the actress, but she stopped it. Another example is to kiss somewhere below lip. Will you play this kind of intimate scence?

M: (Laugh) I need my fans' approval first. The classic love story would have some scene to show the deep relationship of the ones in love. If necessary, i will take the challenge in my 30's. Again, I need my fans' approval first.

H: Wow, although it's complicated that i want to see it and don't want to see it, as your fans, we have the same feeling that we want to see all kinds of MinHo.

<VTR>

H: To MinHo, what does Minoz mean to you?

M: I have expressed my gratitude at lots of occasions. I believe that you all understand how grateful i am. I always feel sorry for Japanese fans, because i don't have much opportunity to come here except for official events. However, you have always been waiting, and come here to meet me today. I'd like to thank you with all my heart. In the future, i will work hard as an actor and do my best. For me, you are my driving force, my biggest momentum to move forward as an actor.

(Hetty’s note: MinHo said a lot, even though the interpreter sitting behind has translated it completely. MinHo turned back and said to her 'Awesome!'. It shows how MinHo respects the staff.)

H: As Minoz, how do you think of MinHo? I'd like to ask some of you.

<Draw lots>

F: (In English) Hello, i’m from Hong Kong.

H: Oh, a friend from Hong Kong. Welcome!

M: (In Cantonese) Hello~

H: What’s your name?

F: ...

H: She seems not understand Japanese.

M: (In English) What’s your name?

F: (In English) My name is Wendy. 

M: (In English) Nice to meet you.

H: What can i do? How can i proceed with the interview? MinHo, can you translate for me? (All laugh)

M: I’m not capable of that. 

H: Aww, what can i do?

F: (In English) Can i come to stage?

H: You don’t have to. I just want to ask you why you like MinHo. Who can translate for me? MinHo, could you please translate it to English?

M: We need some help.

H: Alright, forget the question. (In English) To MinHo, love message, please.

F: (In English) I love you all.

M: (In English) I love you too, Wendy.

H: Thank you.

M: Why did i sweat?

H: I guess the 3 of us all sweat. I never feel so nervous during the interview.

(Hetty’s note: At that time, i wanted to translate for the fan, but i sit at the last low. When i came to the fan and translated what the host said, they have already expressed love to each other in English.)

<VTR>

H: Why are you not active in SNS?

M: No special reason. Only because i’m not good at selfie. I don’t often take photos, so there is nothing much to upload.

H: But i think that fans care about you and want to know what you have been doing. Let’s invite a fan coming to the stage and taking a photo with you, then upload it to SNS.

M: I’m fine with that. Just wondering if you are ok with showing your face.

H: (To audience) Are you ok with that? Alright, let’s draw lots first. If the lucky one doesn’t want to show her face, please let us know. We can hide part of the photo. It’s a rare chance. Please be active.

<Photo time>

M: I will upload the photo.

F: He looks so very gorgeous. My hands were shaking all the time.

H: How do you feel by looking back your 20’s?

M: After being loved by you all, i’ve been working hard to pay back your love by my works. So i’m confident to say that i’ve done my best in my 20’s.

H: Wonderful 20’s. (All applaud) Next he will sing a song for us. The name is…?

M: My Everything. This song has Japanese version, so i will sing this version today.

H: Oh, anything special during the Japanese recording?

M: There was a syllable hard to pronounce. What’s that?

H: Is it 「つ」? 「つ」in 「いつも」?

M: Both 「つ」and「ちゅ」are hard to pronounce.

H: We seldom use 「ちゅ」. Let’s practice 「つ」now. Please try to say 「いつも」.

M: 「いつも」

H: Wow, perfect!

Song <My Everything>
