Last month, South Korean actor-singer Lee Seung-gi graced the shores of the Philippines once again. This time, it was for a charity event organized by the LCS Group at Robinsons Magnolia.
The event, aptly dubbed #LoveYouBack, brought together Lee Seung-gi’s Filo Airens and celebrated his unwavering commitment to making a difference.
The main highlight of the event was the charming presence of Lee Seung-gi and the genuine goodwill he exuded. He rolled up his sleeves and joined the efforts to distribute packed meals from bb.q Chicken and other goodies to 200 underprivileged children from Quezon City.
“It wasn’t merely a celebrity appearance; it was an embodiment of love in action,” the event host noted.
For Lee Seung-gi, this visit marked a return to a place that has become somewhat of a second home. His last trip to the Philippines was in May 2023 when he graced fans with a one-night show as part of the 2023 Lee Seung-gi Tour [Boy Walks the Road-Chapter 2] Asia Tour.
“It was about a deeper connection with a country and its people,” the host said alluding to the purpose of the event.
During a brief moment when he sat down to answer a few selected questions from the media, the topic naturally gravitated toward his future projects. In his native Korean, he revealed, “As of now, there’s no drama. But there’s a lot of things coming in.”
What really intrigued everyone was the question of why he keeps coming back to the Philippines. In response, the 36-year-old superstar, with a sincere smile, said, “It’s the love I get from people every time I come here. So every time I get busy and I get reminded by the people’s warm reception, it makes me want to come back to the Philippines.”
Lee Seung-gi’s recurring visits aren’t merely about professional commitments; they are about nourishing a profound connection with a nation known for its hospitality and passionate fanbase.
