Lee Min Ho met up with star fashion magazine '@star1' and took part in a photo shoot and interview for its April issue. 

During the interview portion, he talked about his immense popularity in China.  He was asked, "You are very popular in China to the point people call you a god.  In your opinion, what's the secret to your popularity?"

He relied, "The strength of Korean dramas.  They sent me a lot of love to the characters in dramas 'Boys Over Flowers,' 'City Hunter,' and 'Heirs.'  I think it's the power of Korean dramas.  Also, I think I spread the name Lee Min Ho while often communicating with the fans on-site starting three years ago."
