Actor Lee Byeong-Heon has been visited by more than 2,000 Japanese fans nearly every day during his stay in Akita Prefecture, Japan to shoot his new drama "IRIS", his agency BH Entertainment said.

"We kept the shooting locations secret, so only some key staff knew about them. It was surprising how the Japanese fans found out where the shooting was taking place, and as many as approximately 2,500 fans came to a shooting site to see Lee every day", the agency said. "The Akita Prefecture government had police and security guards stationed for emergencies, but no regrettable incidents happened".

Since the Korean actor arrived on March 9, the Japanese prefecture has seen many of his fans pour into the area from all over the country, filling up all hotels and motels although it is the off season, according to the agency. "Some 300 fans were even waiting for Lee at the hotel where he was staying from morning until evening. Lee had to hold an impromptu hand-shaking session for them almost every evening when he returned to the hotel after shooting", the agency said.

Lee returned home on Saturday to take part in local shooting here. A spy action drama with a budget of 20 billion won, "IRIS" has a notable cast including actresses Kim Tae-hee and Kim So-yeon and actors Kim Seung-woo and Jeong Joon-ho.

I totally used 'The shanny_w Method™' for making this gif so thanks for the tutorial! *thumbs up* I will eventually make a shirtless one for the next LBH post; it's 8pm here and I'm gonna watch The Penguins Of Madagascar with my niece, lol.

Back OT: "Lee had to hold an impromptu hand-shaking session for them almost every evening when he returned to the hotel after shooting" - that's gotta suck. Don't they work like 16hrs a day or something on films? Poor bugger would just wanna sleep but he's such a trooper making all those fans happy! ♥
