Lee Min Ho Faces Mixed Reactions for His Appearance at ‘Pachinko 2’ New York Premiere

On the evening of August 13th (US time), actor Lee Min Ho and the crew of “Pachinko 2″ were present in New York, USA, to attend the premiere of the project. Currently, images from the event are attracting significant attention from audiences worldwide, with Lee Min Ho’s appearance becoming a hot topic.

Under the lens of Getty Images, Lee Min Ho—who has recently sparked controversy over his appearance—was once again criticized for not maintaining his previous form. Many comments expressed disappointment that Lee Min Ho has not lost weight and is showing signs of aging. However, his slightly tanned yet smooth skin somewhat “redeemed” his appearance under the “unforgiving” lens. Of course, there were also fans who defended him, stating that for someone approaching 40, Lee Min Ho’s current appearance is beyond criticism.

“Pachinko 2” will be released on August 23, 2024. Currently, information and images from this project are receiving considerable attention from the audience. In the second part, viewers will continue to follow Sun Ja (Kim Min Ha) as she has become a mother of two and strives to protect her family. Han Su (Lee Min Ho), who deceived Min Ha, will return, causing Sun Ja’s life to be disrupted once again.

“Pachinko” is one of the rare films in Lee Min Ho’s career where he plays a “trap boy.” His transformation in terms of character, appearance, and acting style has earned him high praise from audiences and critics alike after years of being criticized for being one-dimensional. The second part of the project promises to introduce an even more nuanced Han Su, revealing the tragic backstory that explains his behavior in the first part.
