Repost with full credit and link back to the site, PLEASE.


Kim Hyun Joong THEFACESHOP Asia Tour in Singapore Press Conference took place in the morning of 19th August at Resort World Singapore. Since the last visit 8 months ago, Kim Hyun Joong as the ambassador of THEFACESHOP has once again landed in our sunny island on 17th August evening.


In these 8 months, Kim Hyun Joong released his Mini Album titled Breadkdown in Korea. When asked what he has been busy with recently, Kim Hyun Joong replied that he has been busy with the promotional activities for his Mini Album. He also added that he wanted to have a mini concert during this visit but unfortunately due to his tight schedule in Singapore he was unable to do so. However, he hinted that there are plans for a concert in Singapore early next year so do keep a look out for it!


The host of the day, Ah Ken is jealous and curious at the same time about the secret behind Kim Hyun Joong looking good and fresh all the time despite his busy schedules. Kim Hyun Joong revealed that he does not have any particular skincare regime. But, he ensures that he has plenty of sleep before his busy schedule and another reason is partly because of the products he used from THEFACESHOP.


Similar to last year, a charity auction will be held this year as well. Kim Hyun Joong expressed his gratitude to his fans for supporting the charity auction last year and hopes to gain the same amount of support this year to raise fund to help the needy. For the auction this year, Kim Hyun Joong let out one of his most precious item for the charity auction which is none other than his Limited Edition DVD. What makes this DVD precious is the code number. Out of the 10,000 copies produced, the one that will be auctioned off during his Meet & Greet session is with serial number 85. Kim Hyun Joong also expressed his gratefulness to have been given this opportunity to be involved in a charity event.  He also wishes that he will be able to participate in charity events not only in Singapore but everywhere throughout his career.


Kim Hyun Joong was asked, “The average Singaporean men are not used to using makeup like BB cream, what would you do to encourage them to use it?” He replied “Even in Korea, it used to be such a way that the men are really not used to using makeup products. However, due to a shift in culture, men nowadays pay attention to their skin complexion as much as women do. So, I feel that Singaporean men can start to take care of their skin by using THEFACESHOP products, especially the BB Cream.”


Kim Hyun Joong’s Top 3 favourite products from THEFACESHOP are the Power Perfection BB Cream, essence and hydrating mask pack. He added that if he were to create a beauty product, it will be catered to people with busy lifestyle. The product will work in a way whereby a mask is able to give you full makeup instantly when you put it on and is expected to be invented in the next 50 years time.


Lastly to end up the press conference, Ah Ken asked him “How would you describe the relationship between your music and THEFACESHOP? How would you put them together?” Kim Hyun Joong replied “I feel that both my music and products from THEFACESHOP make me standout and is something that I can express myself through.”


Kim Hyun Joong together with Mr Leslie Low, Director of THEFACESHOP Singapore, Ms Kelly Kwak, THEFACESHOP Korea Marketing Team Leader, witnessed the launch of the latest product line of THEFACESHOP. Kim Hyun Joong being a user of Power Perfection BB Cream, he feels that the BB Cream is good in terms of coverage and is also long lasting. Also, Power Perfection BB Cream is easy to apply and controls oil production.


During the press conference, Kim Hyun Joong also hinted that he will be releasing an album later this year in October. He can’t reveal much information for his new album concept but it will be a very different album from his previous mini album.
