Shoots for SBS’s upcoming City Hunter have taken its star, Lee Min-ho, overseas; he traveled abroad to Thailand last month, which is where most of these photos come from.
The production hasn’t provided too many details about the plotline for the Thai shoots, so I’m just hoping that the furry, moppy thing that crawled on his head and died in an unruly mess is just a part of a vacation look, perhaps, or maybe a flashback. The other photos indicate a return to the sleeker, cleaner ‘do we’re used to seeing him wearing, particularly in the shot with his co-star Park Min-young. (Too bad we have to trade the hair for the pink pants. I guess that’s why they say life’s about compromise.) I presume that the two suited Blue House employees are talking on the job in that scene, since he’s a communications guy (MIT-educated!) there and she’s a bodyguard.
An attempt to explain the connection to the drama’s roots in the popular manga series: Shifting the setting from 1980s Tokyo to a present-day Seoul, this drama takes the original premise of a hero who solves cases, working through the injuries and pain that’ll come his way, and developing into a “city hunter.” The cases will range from big to small, offering comfort and satisfaction to people living and hoping for the future.
Not to beat a dead horse (thwack!), but wouldn’t it be easier for the so-called city hunter to solve cases if he were…yunno…a private detective? Or a cop? Or someone who solves cases for clients as a part of his regular job description? Not to say that a Blue House employee with a doctorate from MIT can’t tackle cases on the side, but when you’ve got the premise built right in… sigh. I dunno. I’m confused.
City Hunter premieres on May 25.

25th May, damn!! Thats the week after my GSCE’s exams start!!! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!
HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT X10000000000000
does LMH even have a bad angle? he looks freakin beautiful no matter which side he turns his head… the whitey looks adorable as well
OMG…So CUTE!!! LOVE the Black and White photos!!!
Not keen on the pants nor on LMH.
The plot sounds a bit confusing too.
Let’s see how it goes.
wow… I like him very much..
I have seen his new photo, and like you guys… I think the story of City Hunter Kdrama will be different…
I think LMH will be the loneliness’s Ryo Saeba…
and PMY will be a feminim’s Kaori…
but, I still want to watch it…
I really miss him so much… and I hope the chemistry between LMH and PMY will be cool…
City Hunter, fighting!!!
I think I’m the only girl here who’s probably read the manga and my initial reaction to this was that they were gonna butcher adapting it in the same way Hollywood butchers anime adaptations. And I’m still feeling like that that’s the case.
It looks like the Chung Woo-sung one might do it better but I still hold no hope for a proper adaptation.
mannn… he’s lookin’ good! OH. MY. GOODNESS.
I miss him so so so much, how I wish it’s may 25 now.
His legs are like a mile long!
Considering all photos are fans’ candid shots of LMH in locations except those in Thailands which are official stills, I must say this guy is really perfect from all angles!
WOWOWOW! O__o
Lee Min Ho is very GOOD-LOOOOKING when he wears very cooool and pose like that way!!! =D =D
It made me so “little” drools because of many pictures of Lee Min Ho, lolz.
How can someone be almost perfect!
So handsome… so tall…
Fine as ever this guy! <3

sorry oppa i have a request can you come to islamic country
Wow, I don’t know WHY you all are trippin’ over that white dude when LMH is in the boat. He is hotter than everyone else in any of these pictures. Look at his side shots…perfectly sculpted face. Even if he DID have a nose job, that was money well spent. I love you, Minho, and I always will. Saranghae. <3
jus off watchin da pic n it’s sick good..LMH lwks rad..so lwkn foward to seein da drama..peace
: )
i will definitely wait for this drama, LMH gets a lot hotter each drama he makes, and both him and the white guy is hot but LMH is definitely hotter plus he’s a good actor too.
I love lee min ho oppa! He can do well in City Hunter drama. He is so smart.. I give him full marks in drama as his fan.. I am your biggest fan lee min ho.
