Xiumin Fans 1st Movie Support Details
We prepared a feast for our Kyeonie and the staff and actors who are enduring a lot at the site. The food support that we prepared to proceed with outdoors was carried out indoors because of the unexpected rainfall since morning.Considering that it is a filming carried out in the humid hot summer, we prepared a great menu from the main course until the dessert in order to ensure the staff and actors remain in good health. There were 40 options such as lobster, raw abalone, and barbecue. The staff and actors all really enjoyed it. They even called out, āXiumin jjang!ā and it became a support we are proud of because of hearing continuous praise for how amazing Kyeonie is. Of course Minseok was the first to come and he enjoyed the nice meal with the director and his seniors.
We even prepared KyeonCoffeeShop so they could enjoy refreshing drinks after their meal. It was all run indoors in a very small place, but because it was located across the street from the filming site, it was easily accessible to all of the staff. Because itās difficult to guess everyoneās preferences for tea, we prepared enough fresh ingredients so that everyone could select from any of the menu options, such as coffee, tea, smoothies, carbonated drinks, and bingsu. The staff who were exhausted from an overnight filming out in the country very much enjoyed KyeonCoffeeShop and many came back several times. Before eating, Kyeonie came to order an iced Americano and afterwards he came back to KyeonCoffeeShop again. He looked over the entire menu and after thinking over it for a while decided on apricot-ade. Our Kyeonie enjoys refreshing drinks so later even recommended it to the manager!

These are the bundles of presents that we prepared for all of the staff. After the meal, we safely delivered the bags filled with snacks and items that will come in handy on the many overnight filmings to the staff. Not only the staff, but the other actors and managers seemed very happy as they walked off with their gifts. >.< A big thanks to all of the staff who were very friendly and expressed their thanks for the gifts while also hoping that Xiumin would be a big hit. Please love and take good care of our Kyeonie!
After hearing that they frequently have overnight filmings in summer heat, we included a useful towel and a t-shirt for them to comfortably change into. On site, we organized the t-shirts by size and after the meal, we were able to give each of the staff a shirt that would fit them. The staff all exclaimed after receiving the t-shirts, towels, and fans and asked if we had directly special ordered them all. Minseok also looked over all the presents that we had prepared. >.<;; The smile never left his face ^^ So that Minseok could wear his t-shirt and use the towels to his heartās content, we stuffed his bag full.
Aside from that, we also prepared the things the staff would really need - socks and wet tissues.
The number one popular item among the male staff! The cigarettes received a round of applause! The staff were doubtful that we were actually giving this to them and after making sure, they shouted 'Daebakā 326 times and stuffed their pockets.
For the female staff who are faced with that time of the month during filming, we prepared feminine products such as pads, tampons, and painkillers in a pretty box.
The staff were all praising and giving thanks to Minseok as they took their gifts after the meal. They could all understand the unspoken question in our eyes and told us many good things, assuring us that 'Kyeonie is really doing well.ā It was a difficult day for us, but we were able to have a great time thanks to the great praise for Kyeonie. We hope that the presents will be useful for the staff in filming Kyeonie well and finishing the movie 'Kim Seondalā and we hope that you will be strong during the remaining filming. Though the time we spent with you was short, we sincerely hope that it will remain a good memory for all of the staff.
We also prepared a small present for the manager who always works hard for Minseok.
For the manager who looks after Minseok on site, we prepared a box of red ginseng, a functional t-shirt, and Crocs. Unintentionally, they ended up somewhat being couple shoes with Minseok. After hearing of it, Minseok and the manager both shuddered. Gomen.
We also prepared a few presents for the director of the movie 'Kim Seondal.ā
Considering that directors have to wear suits for various meetings and press conferences, we gave him a dress shirt and tie. Through internet searching, we discovered that the director enjoys wearing shirts with patterns. +o+ We searched and searched to find a shirt and tie that would suit the directorās tastes. We really hope that the director will like them. Just in case itās not his size, we gave him the receipt for exchange.
We prepared a luxury wine for the director. We presented him with a red wine from Burgundy, France 'Clos Vougeotā. Itās a charming wine with a delicate fruit flavor and subtle tannins. And we have heard it is good to have a glass of wine before bed. We prepared it so he could have a nice glass of wine after a long day of filming.
We also prepared this gift for the filming directors who take such nice shots of Minseokie.
We presented the six filming directors with red ginseng extract and wine.
We prepared presents for the senior actors who work with Minseok on set.
We prepared one of the best traditional Korean liquors for Minseokās acting trainer. The liquor includes tumeric and honey and we have heard that even if you consume a lot, it has a clean taste.
We prepared candles for the actors. Itās a charming candle with a refreshing and earthy scent as if one was at the ocean. >.< After testing out many different candles, everyone decided on this candle with a very natural and subtle scent.
These are the diffusers for the actresses. They are aroma candles that use natural oils that do not require being mixed with water. Aroma candles are good for those suffering from insomnia, so we prepared this for the actresses who might have trouble sleeping. We were able to give Ra Miranās hers directly after their meal. Once she heard it was a diffuser, she was very excited. When we asked her to work well with Minseok, she agreed with a big smile. >.< She was taking good care of Minseok during the meal, as well.
We included nice nametags with the presents for the directors and seniors.
This is what we prepared for Minseokie 'Kyeonieā whom we all love.
This is an eye and neck massager for Minseok who has recently has been so busy he hasnāt had much chance to rest. We prepared it so that he can use it easily while on standby, in transit, or on flights! Itās a portable massager that will come in handy on site or on standby because even using it for a short time, it is extremely refreshing. It lulls you to sleep through a gentle warming sensation. We bought this for him because we thought it would be good for his the health of his precious eyes and recovery from exhaustion. We hope to help Minseok achieve a good condition for a sound sleep.
A special present for Minseokās debut as a movie actor! We bought this because we wanted to give our actor Kim Minseok a chair for while heās on standby. On an outdoor chair made of sturdy black walnut tree wood from North America, we put his name in English on the front and in hangul on the back. Heās still a rookie but we prepared this in hopes that he will become a fantastic actor.
These are multi-functional fan-umbrellas to protect him rain or shine. This is a gift he definitely needs considering that he is sensitive to heat and sweats a lot. The names are embroidered on and we presented him with various colors and sizes. There are tassels on the inside of the umbrella that function as a fan in hopes that he can stay cool in the hot humid Korean summer.
This is a first aid and health kit for Minseok. Itās filled to the brim with medicines that he will need such as ox bezoar, pain killers, pain relief spray, disinfectant, anti-fever medication, and liver detoxification medication. We prepared this just in case he becomes unwell but we hope that Minseok will not get hurt and will always stay healthy.
These are a functional t-shirt and tank top that he can wear comfortably. We were most worried about Minseok having to film wearing a hanbok so we prepared shirts that quickly absorb sweat so he can wear them comfortably underneath the hanbok. We also prepared a nicely colored rain coat for the days they film outside in the rain.
Because period films require wearing uncomfortable shoes for the filming, we prepared comfortable shoes for him to change into. Crocs are cute and comfortable slippers that are surprisingly very soft when you wear them. For Minseokās precious little feet! we prepared these so he can be comfortable on standby.
This is make-up and sunscreen to protect his clear, beautiful skin. We prepared lots of sunscreen so he doesnāt have to hold back and can use as much as he likes. The mask packs are made of abalone and sea cucumber from Jeju, and even if you leave them at room temperature, they are cool and refreshing when you apply them to your skin. Special mask packs with the superb effect of reducing swelling! We prepared these in hopes to preserve Minseokās skin and help him forget the heat.
A set of 3 cleansers for neat and tidy Minseokie.
Gifts prepared because we couldnāt just let Minseokie suffer from the things that make him tired.
Ten pairs of functional, quick drying socks that he can change as needed and mosquito repellent necessary for outdoor filming.
Red ginseng good for recovering from exhaustion and vitamins that are soluble in water for Minseokie who enjoys exercise.
We prepared various snacks for him because we are worried that he might not be able to meat regular meals while filming. We prepared healthy snacks for him to nibble on such as mixed nuts, energy bars, dried blueberries and cranberries, etc.
We prepared a 10L cooler and even carbonated water because itās probably difficult to get cool water on set. We have the good news that the manager was extremely happy when they received the cooler! >.< We also delivered extra Kim Seondal t-shirts and towels so that they will never run out.
Because this is his first movie, we are pretty sure that this has been both an exciting and nerve-wracking experience for even Minseokie. July 29th, the day of the Kyeonie support. Minseokie quietly walked in with both hands clasped together and looked at all of the support in surprise. Then he quickly went to stand in line and filled his plate before having an enjoyable meal with his director and seniors. We were delighted to see him enjoy the food and even come back for seconds. He was adorable in that after eating, he neatly lined up his spoon, knife, and fork.
We prepared the support full of things that we thought Minseok would like, but we also did have some concerns that it might be burdensome to him. Thankfully we were able to see that he both liked and enjoyed all that we had prepared. >.< Ā Minseok kept smiling brightly and looked over all of the gifts directly, even looking through all of the staff gifts.
He was extremely thankful, even saying that thanks to the support from the fans, he was able to feel strength returning to him like magic!~ We are extremely thankful that despite the fact that he would have been tired, he took the time to post his thanks late at night.
Thank you to everyone who has given interest and participated in Kim Minseokās movie support. All of the gifts we prepared have been safely delivered to him and the staff.
Thank you for working with Xiumin Fans! Weāll keep working hard to support Kim Minseok and Kyeonie. See you again!
The support was prepared with thoughts of what Kyeonie and actor Kim Minseok will need.
