Dressed in a red suit and then a black suit, Lee Minwoo wowed the audience with his superb singing and his powerful dance at the Chivas Music Experience event on 19 Dec. He even greeted the fans in Cantonese, saying "Hello everyone I'm Minwoo, how are you?", sending the fans into a frenzy.

During the last song however, there was suddenly a problem with the microphone, and though Minwoo showed signs of being affected momentarily, he continued the performance with a smile, and prompted the fans to sing along. After the incident, Minwoo expressed his thoughts about the incident, "There are always emergency situations during performances, the most important thing is to know how to handle the situation. I saw the fans just now, and I'm happy just seeing them, so everything's ok."

After the show, Minwoo returned to the hotel to have a change of clothes before proceeding to a Korean restaurant in Causeway Bay's Times Square for dinner. The crew continued to stop reporters from taking pictures.

BONUS... a fan recap of the event

*the lucky fans who went! and too bad to the ppl in the crowd who didn't know who he is... you don't know what you're missing out on!*

Just came back from HK, I'm so tired!~

Minwoo was just so superb, he sang around 6 songs today, and he made some changes to the dance choreography too. He was wearing a red suit, totally gorgeous!~

The venue is just great too, it's small so we were very near the stage, the sound system was powerful too!~ He's just too gorgeous!~!~

He sang Showdown first, then M Style which he had a new choreography for, and the dance was even more powerful. (note: i think she's referring to the remix choreography which he performed at Music Bank before...) Then he sang La Noche Bonita, and he got that lamp post from the Korea concert here too, then he did Let Me Love You without the female dance, just dancing by himself with a new choreography too.

Then he did Stomp, it's the exact same version as the one in the Korea concert, then he finished off with Bump. A little incident took place, Minwoo somehow dropped the mic and when he picked it up there was no sound. He smiled and then pointed at the mic, telling us that there was no sound and the pointed to us fans to help him sing the song. So we sang out loud and clear, and he gave us a thumbs-up for it! ~And because Chivas' official color is orange, orange streamers were given out, so the entire place was pretty much decked out in orange, plus we had lightboards of Minwoo's name all over, so he looked really happy!~ And he really took this show very seriously, since he rehearsed nonstop for 2 hours for just a half-hour performance!~

There should be really great fancams of this, because the venue is small so many people took very clear fancams. But since Minwoo isn't that big in HK yet, and he was the first to appear, many of the HK audience members didn't really know who he was. They were mostly the white-collar worker type, so they didn't really react much to him except to stare at us fans. The last to perform were Grasshoppers, and after they finished they gathered onstage with Minwoo and Elva Hsiao. Grasshoppers really took care of Minwoo, and even hugged him too, I guess they really admired him too. When they exited the stage, one of them pulled Minwoo along with him!~ Minwoo really looked very happy today!~
