The event featured a video showing the actor appearing in plays and variety show programs, as well as a baseball demonstration by Kim who is an avid baseball fan, an quiz session and a group photo session with his fans.

"It seems like yesterday that we opened the fan club and I'm so happy it's been one year," the actor was quoted as saying. "I hope we can continue to meet through the fan club events and I was very tired before I came to the meeting but I received such great energy from the fans here."

The 34-year-old star, who debuted as a stage actor, has appeared in several movies and TV series -- most notably in the KBS drama “Full House” with Asian pop sensation Rain and Hallyu star Song Hye-kyo. He currently appears on the popular reality show "The Invincible Baseball Team" and play "Mom, Do You Want to Go on a Trip?"
