Hi! Latest news! All S'pore KHJ fans, he's coming to our Lion City on 1 - 3 Dec for The Face Shop promo and probably a FM too!
tears of happyness.......Liez!!!
DUH! We already knew it was a big hit with International fans! The media was just either too slow to get it or in complete denial of PK's popularity because Koreans didn't watch it! Yay for youtube so that now they finally get it!
500,000 hits don't mean much if each person watches it 50 times! so technically only5000 people watching. I think Group 8 is trying to bring the hypes back so he can sell to more countries at a higher price. it's all about money..aish.
。。。how many people will watch it 50 times?? I just watch once without sub and once with sub....
Anonymous 4:35 if anyone has enough time on their hands to watch it 50 times then they need to get a life really quickly! So all those youtube videos with a million hits doesn't mean a thing by your logic? Just a few people watch those videos over and over huh? Besides if it was all about money then why did they already sell Playful Kiss to so many countries before the youtube episodes even aired? Geez get over it! Playful Kiss is a very popular drama and that is all there is to it. Sorry but these kind of comments just irritate me and even though I really tried I just couldn't let this one go.
@4:35
HERE YOU AGAIN ANONI! WILL YOU PLS RESPECT ALL PK'S FANS HERE AND OUTSIDE KOREA. BY READING YOUR COMMENT, DEFINITELY YOU'RE ONE OF THE ANTIS. AS WE ALL KNOW KHJ INTERNATIONALLY AND DOMESTICALLY FAMOUS ALREADY SO DON'T THINK NONSENSE SINCE IT'S NOT WORTH IT.

Anon 4:35 - There are 30,525 subscribers to the YT channel so get your numbers right. It would be at the least 30,525 people viewing it 50 times! Oh and in case your wondering, yes my comment is total sarcasm! Your comment was just too ridiculous to ignore! lol
OMG! they used my comment from youtube!!! That is soooo cooool!!!
Congratulations to PK !!!! I hope someone will tip this news to allkpop...pls leizle .. Can u do that? I want to see this news in allkpop so the antis will stop bashing leader! Hehehe
Ignore anonymous 4:35, as KHJ or leader's fans or as a good individuals we should try our best to make an accurate analysis or base our comments on accurate thinking, dig, dig deeper. I remember that article, Playful Kiss already sold to 12 countries all over the world and it was dated 15 September. I noted it because I was really amazed because as early as that PK was selling. Here is a post about it. It has a lot to do with the fans, Group 8 and MBC also verifies the origins of the fans at viikii.net or the comments at FB and youtube official and fan videos thru an agency as indicated in other news articles...

We should also think if we will annoy other fans or viewers...I hope the comments will only remain here...
Youtube also discussed final plans for the special edition and is in the news also as early as Sep 15 as shown in this post...so sorry Liezle, having difficulty looking at the archives here...again sorry

To anonymous @ 4:35 am.
I think you are just an anti. I know I only watch it few times because I have to go to work. I am amaze at the number especially China is not even included in this number since they can not access youtube. In China alone, he easy has over a million of fans.
PK is now a worldwide phenomenon!!!!no wonder antis are coming out their shells!.hehehe... love PK... hope i can meet KHJ personally here in SG..!!
