This event marked his first in two years since the ‘Reach You’ fan meeting in 2022. Chang Wook opened the event with a stunning performance of “Kissing You,” an OST from ‘7 First Kisses,’ setting an energetic tone for the evening.

Before diving into a Q&A session, the actor expressed his gratitude to his fans: “It’s been a while since I went to the Philippines. Thank you for coming after such a long time as well and for the warm welcome.” He reflected on his recent shoot with BENCH, sharing that he felt positive about the experience and proud of the outcome: “I felt so good doing this. It was actually a fun shoot. The post-production of this shoot is good, and I’m proud of the outcome. I have mixed emotions.”

When asked about his upcoming projects, Ji Chang Wook revealed a busy schedule. He mentioned his latest movie, ‘Revolver,’ set for release on August 7.

The fan meeting included a segment where fans could ask the actor questions directly. One fan sought advice on overcoming shyness. The actor humbly responded, “I’m kind of shy to be giving advice to people… I think it’s important to be yourself and to find people who love you. You don’t really need to try hard for people to like you. I think it’s more than enough when you’re being yourself.”

One fan asked how to serve others in small ways. He shared his own thoughts: “Actually, I don’t really try to impress other people. I’m the type of person who wants to give happiness, comfort, and a resting place to others. That’s something I’m working hard on. It cannot be to everyone, but there must be someone who I can be like that to that person. I believe that the fact that you’re already thinking about this talks a lot about yourself.”

Ji Chang Wook’s fan meeting in Manila, presented by BENCH, was a heartfelt event that left fans eagerly anticipating his upcoming projects and moved by his thoughtful advice.
