K-star Park Bo-gum proves he is a consummate entertainer at all-English Singapore fan meeting
Sign up now: Get ST's newsletters delivered to your inbox South Korean actor-singer entertained his fans with songs at his Be With You fan meeting at The Star Theatre. Park Bo Gum 2025 Be With You Fan Meeting Tour The Star Theatre Aug 14, 7pm If there was a recurring theme for Park Bo-gum's Be With You Singapore fan meeting, it would be gratitude. Throughout the 3½-long event at The Star Theatre on Aug 14, words such as 'thank you', 'grateful' and 'blessed' flowed freely from the 32-year-old's mouth. The South Korean star was also visibly touched by his fans' support as he celebrated his 14th year in show business. Park – who also sings, plays music and hosts – debuted as an actor in 2011 with a bit part in the crime thriller film Blind, and went on to become a successful performer. He admitted to the audience that 2025 is his year, with his recent TV series – romance drama When Life Gives You Tangerines and actioner Good Boy – receiving rave reviews and high viewership ratings. He said that it is his wish to take his fans on a personal journey at the fan meeting, for being with him all these years. To the supporters – some of whom flew in from China, Thailand and the United States – the handsome K-idol, famed for his 'good boy' reputation, is their Prince Charming personified. The Be With Me world tour kicked off in Yokohama, Japan, in July, with Singapore being the third stop after Seoul. Other stops include Asian cities like Kaohsiung, Manila, Bangkok and Kuala Lumpur before the tour heads to Latin American countries such as Mexico, Brazil and Chile. Here are three highlights of the show that proved Park is a consummate all-rounder entertainer. Top stories Swipe. Select. Stay informed.

No language barrier Fan meetings with South Korean stars in town are usually conducted in their native language, even if the celebrity is adept at communicating in English. Park scored a home run by holding his fan meeting primarily in English. Although he had a translator backstage and slipped back to his mother tongue at some moments, he adequately held court in English. Park often apologised for his 'limited vocabulary' whenever he struggled and stammered, as he tried to articulate his thoughts. There were also several cute boo-boos, such as saying 'poo poo' instead of 'choo choo' when imitating the sound of a train. He would then cover his face with his hands in embarrassment, laugh at his mistakes and ask his fans to 'wipe that out' from their memory. But to the crowd, the charismatic multi-hyphenate could do no wrong, often screaming 'it's okay, take your time' in Korean, much to Park's surprise and delight. 2. Serenading fans in a mini concert Before becoming an actor, Park wanted to be a singer-songwriter. He has also released several singles and a studio album, Blue Bird (2020). Recently, the musical theatre-trained artiste has been indulging in his passion for music, such as hosting the South Korean music talk show The Seasons: Park Bo-gum's Cantabile (2025). He kicked off the singing segment of the fan meeting with the energetic On My Way (2025), a song written for him and commissioned by Korea Tourism Organization to promote South Korea as a travel destination. Park is the honorary ambassador for his country. He also knew how to rouse the audience, inviting them to dance with him during his covers of South Korean singer Cho Yong-pil's upbeat Let's Take A Trip (1985) and South Korean folk duo MeloMance's jazzy Let's Take A Break (2016). Park serenaded fans with his buttery tenor vocals on ballads, often playing the accompaniment on the piano. Cue fan favourites such as My Person, the romantic song he performed for the soundtrack of Love In The Moonlight, the hit 2016 K-drama that turned Park into a global star. There was also his 2018 single Let's Go See The Stars and All My Love, a number he recorded for his fans before enlisting for his mandatory military service in 2020. Sitting at the piano and chatting with the crowd, Park, in a spur of the moment, asked everyone to sing along with him to home-grown Mandopop singer JJ Lin's Practice Love (2013). Park had performed the Chinese-language ballad at his last Singapore fan meeting, held at The Star Theatre in 2019. Never once did he show any signs of slowing down, turning the event into a mini-concert. 3. Real-life Prince Charming Park's appeal comes from his humility, innate charm and sincerity, which were on full display during the talk show segment. He shared how he never fails to keep to his daily routine of jogging, even when he is in Singapore. The avid runner thanked his waiting fans for not approaching him and respecting his privacy when he was jogging around Marina Bay Sands the morning of the fan meeting. Four fans also had the opportunity to take photos with Park on stage during the 'fan wish' segment. Seven-year-old Tarana, who travelled from New York, asked 'Bo-gum samchon' (uncle in Korean) if he had watched the hit animated film KPop Demon Hunters (2025), to which he replied 'of course'. The girl then requested that Park sing Falling Slowly with her mother, which he obliged – complete with his piano accompaniment. The Oscar-winning track, composed by Irish singer-songwriter Glen Hansard for the Irish romantic musical film Once (2007), went viral when Park performed it with Dublin all-male choir The Ramparts in the South Korean reality series My Name Is Gabriel (2024). Park ended the evening with a kneeling deep bow and a nod to his new role as his country's tourism ambassador. He said: 'I don't know when I will return to Singapore again, but all of you are welcome to meet me in South Korea.'
