The King of Hallyu Turns 38! Lee Min Ho’s Heartwarming Birthday Celebration

South Korean heartthrob Lee Min Ho celebrated his 38th birthday on Sunday, June 22, and commemorated the special day with presents and support from fans across the globe. Keeping up with his annual habit, the actor took to Instagram with a heartfelt post thanking fans for the love.

In the post, Lee Min Ho, all dressed in a casual black ensemble, is spotted standing in front of a room full of gifts — balloons, cakes, and flower bouquets. There’s one photo where he’s smiling while posing with his hand on a vanilla cake, and another where he’s receiving a bouquet from a fan. One very heartwarming slide finds him smiling while facing a humongous poster of himself. “Thanks to all the love that makes me live today. I hope you’re as happy as me,” he captioned a photo.

The comments section was immediately flooded by fans with birthday greetings, attesting to the continued popularity of Lee Min Ho worldwide.

Career Update: From TV to Big Screen

In his professional life, Lee Min Ho recently made a comeback to television with the sci-fi romantic comedy When the Stars Gossip after a five-year hiatus. Though expectations were high, the tvN drama that also featured Gong Hyo Jin, Oh Jung Se, and Han Ji Eun could not make much of an impression with the audiences.

The actor is now gearing up for the most awaited movie Omniscient Reader: The Prophet, which will be released on July 23, 2025. Directed by Kim Byung Woo and inspired by the hit web novel Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint, the action fantasy film boasts a galaxy of stars like Ahn Hyo Seop, Chae Soo Bin, Shin Seung Ho, Nana, and BLACKPINK member Jisoo.

Fans wait with bated breath for Lee Min Ho’s next step, on and off screen.
