He’s been in the industry for 17 years, and there’s no stopping him from pursuing more of his dreams as an artist and connecting more with his fans through the projects he works on. When asked about his thoughts on the global reach of what people dub the Hallyu fever today, Kim Bum told Metro.Style, “I’m also surprised and amazed that K-culture, K-drama, and K-Pop are loved overseas.

And I hope that many people will continue to love us like now.”
