Actor Lee Min Ho Believes Dating Can Be a Way to Relieve Stress
During a recent interview, actor Lee Min Ho touched on the topics of dating and relationships.
When asked if dating might be a way for him to relieve stress in his life, the actor responded, “That’s true. Liking someone and having fluttering emotions could be a way to naturally relieve stress that comes from hard and tiring work. I would just like to have a one-sided love,” as he laughed.
The interviewer then asked if he is usually the one to break up or be broken up with in a relationship. Lee Min Ho explained, “I think the line between breaking up with and being broken up with is a bit ambiguous. I usually break up through mutual agreement. Just as all relationships begin by mutual agreement, I believe breaking up should also be done mutually. I’ve never had a one-way break up.”
On his opinion of friendship between men and women, Lee Min Ho shared, “Essentially, I don’t think it’s possible. I don’t think a man and a woman without feelings for one another can have a meal and drink tea. But I do believe that a man and a woman who dated for a long time can become friends again after a certain amount of time has passed.”
Do you agree with the actor’s statements?

Updates

The film has been drawing much attention with the expectation on the intense violent action scenes by the two actors, Kim Rae-won and Lee Min-ho.

Lee Min-ho talks about ‘Gangnam 1970′ in The STAR’s interview
Korean actor Lee Min-ho is known for playing the role of a wealthy, love-struck heir in popular domestic dramas. It is this image, not the dark brooding one he is soon to unveil, that the star projects on the cover of The Star’s February issue.
In an interview with the self-titled “No. 1 Star & Style” fashion magazine, the 27-year-old heartthrob talked about his role transformation in the upcoming film “Gangnam 1970,” directed by Yoo Ha.
Lee stars as a petty gangster in the noir crime film, in a much-anticipated unfettering of typecast chains. His gritty portrayal of an opportunistic hoodlum is set in Seoul in the 1970s, during the development of the now-affluent Gangnam district.
“I want moviegoers to feel like coming out to the cinema wasn’t a waste of time,” the heartthrob actor confessed.
Waxing slightly lyrical, Lee added that he had younger viewers in mind: “I hope (they) will not be as steeped in uncertainty about their futures as I was. I want to give them the message that they should work hard to better their lives.”
Yet on set, the actor was less introspective as he charmed staff with his smile and sensitive personality. Lee, who won acclaim in romantic dramas like “Boys Over Flowers” and “The Heirs,” is set to make female viewers swoon once more with his steady gaze and all-white outfit in the next issue of the Korean fashion magazine.
On the topic of girls, the actor revealed that he was attracted to women he could “converse well with.” That doesn’t necessarily mean she has to be perfect. “Everyone has their own merits. I think girls who know their strong points and have self-esteem are attractive. I find unexpected weaknesses charming,” the star said.
So it seems Lee, who is soon to appear on screen as a pauper-turned-gangster, is ruled by his soft side. What does he value? “What (you) cherish in (your) heart. The relationship where you can depend on each other, and turn to (one another) for comfort when you’re feeling tired.”
“Gangnam 1970,” starring Lee Min-ho and Kim Rae-won, will open nationwide on Wednesday. The February issue of The Star will hit shelves this Friday.

KoBiz interview – Lee Min Ho of Gangnam Blues
After I’ve read some press coverage on Gangnam Blues and finding out that most of them talked about the film in positive light, I felt a bit more secure.
Choosing Gangnam Blues wasn’t a choice I made to change into a manly character or to escape from the idol image I had through previous works. I had always thought I would like to work on a film once I’ve become mature enough. That was when I received the screenplay from director YOO. He waited for me for a year while I finished up taping for The Heirs and I’m thankful that I was able to do my first film with him.
I always clear my schedule a month before any new project. In that time, I refresh myself, both body and soul before starting something new. But afterThe Heirs, I had a lot of schedules in China and felt like I didn’t have enough time to get myself prepared. But once we started shooting, YOO trusted my performance and it worked out.
My character Jong-dae is not a super ambitious character. He wanted a normal life with a family and a house. So while under the skins of Jong-dae, I tried to portray a person who is running towards the better life and trying to run away from the bad times. I wanted to show that he wanted to escape from the present. I personally had some tough years of my own, and I wanted to express it through Jong-dae’s life.
Jong-dae’s piercing stare reminds me of the character you played inPublic Enemy Returns (2008).
Director YOO also told me that he liked my eyes in Public Enemy Returns. During that time, the hungry eyes were very real. But maybe life has become better for me. YOO told me my stare has changed, and I put in a lot of effort to bring back that raw look.
The reason why I have to work so hard is because I need to be responsible. Many fans in Korea and China are waiting for my next work. If I want to be proud in front of my fans, I feel like I should keep on working hard. With Boys over Flowers, I’ve earned a lot of fandom especially from China. There will come a time when I will look back at the past and say, “those were my golden years.” I want to make sure that I won’t regret anything when that day comes.
I was able to act as much as I want, and I feel like I’ve really become an actor. There was a team dinner after finishing Public Enemy Returns. At the gathering, I was amazed by the minds of film professionals and admired them. Through Gangnam Blues, I had the same experience. When the staff members relate to what I felt as a character, we became one through the film. That experience was priceless.

Lee Min Ho Talks about Friendship and Rivalry between Him and Kim Woo Bin
In a recent interview with Lee Min Ho, he talked about the relationship between him and Kim Woo Bin, whom he had worked with in drama “The Heirs.”
Talking about Kim Woo Bin as a friend, he said, “Although not frequently, I keep in touch with him. But since we’re both so busy, meeting up isn’t easy.” He also added, “But I visited him when he was filming for his movie ‘The Technicians,’ and we often encourage each other. I’m pretty sure he is coming to the VIP premiere of ‘Gangnam 1970.’”
When asked whether he thinks of Kim Woo Bin as a rival, he commented, “Because Woo Bin started working for a movie before me, and I recently started acting [for a movie], many people compare me with him. I’m used to this kind of comparison though. I was compared with [three] guys in ‘Boys over Flowers.’ Because of that, I don’t pay much attention to [being compared with others] by viewers.”
Meanwhile, Lee Min Ho attended the VIP premiere of movie “The Technicians” on December 16 last year, showing that their friendship was ongoing.
