Always the dream to see him perform an English song live in PH. Maybe a Filipino song next? ???? pic.twitter.com/lHIWsgKJqj
He also performed his hit songs "Return," "Desire & Resent," "Smile Boy," "Losing My Mind," and "Because You're My Woman."
Lee said that he is glad to be in the Philippines again as he misses Airen PH.
"I am really happy to be here in the Philippines again. I miss my fans so much," he said.
Lee has been in and out of the country for several times this year alone. He partnered with Singson and other Korean investors to convert parts of Metrowalk as Little Seoul.
"Magtatayo kami ng Little Seoul dito sa Metro Manila, mga buildings, mga centers. Do'n sa Metrowalk. Parang little Korea pero tatawagin nating Little Seoul," Singson said in an interview earlier this year.
Apart from the project, Singson said that he will produce a movie for Lee.
"Of course, movie din para matulungan natin ang showbiz industry dito sa Pilipinas," Singson said.
