Hyun Bin Shares Personal Moments at Fan Meet: Fried Chicken, Adobo, and Life Lessons
Hyun Bin has once again proven why he's not just a global superstar, but also one of the most relatable and beloved Korean actors out there. During his recent fan meet in the Philippines, the usually private actor gave fans a rare glimpse into his personal life — and every moment was filled with charm, sincerity, and just the right amount of humor.
Here’s everything fans are talking about after this unforgettable event.
The Secret Chef Behind the Scenes
When asked about what he likes to cook in his downtime, Hyun Bin didn’t hesitate to share. “I don’t cook that often,” he admitted with a smile, “but when I do, it’s usually fried chicken wings. Sometimes with soy sauce too.”
That simple response immediately lit up social media, especially among fans who remembered when Son Ye Jin once posted about his cooking on Instagram — proudly showing off his chicken wings. Clearly, she’s a fan of his skills in the kitchen, and now we know why!
A New Favorite Dish: Filipino Adobo
In a heartwarming moment, Hyun Bin also shared a recent culinary discovery — Filipino adobo. “It was delicious,” he said with a big smile that, quite frankly, melted every adobo-loving fan in the room.
Trying local cuisine and falling in love with it? Just one more reason Filipinos adore him. The connection between Hyun Bin and his Filipino fans continues to grow stronger, and he’s clearly embracing every moment of it.
“Live in the Moment” — Hyun Bin’s Advice to His Younger Self
When asked what advice he would give his younger self, Hyun Bin took a more reflective tone.
“Live in the moment,” he said thoughtfully. “In the past, I was so focused on work that I forgot to enjoy the journey. I’d tell myself to appreciate the present, take in your surroundings, and not just rush toward the goal.”
It’s a reminder many of us needed — and hearing it from someone who has achieved so much, yet remains so grounded, made it even more meaningful.
His Secrets to Staying Energized

“Yes,” he added with a playful grin, “I brought my supplements with me this time.”
It’s this kind of candid detail that fans love — simple routines that keep him balanced amidst the chaos of fame.
