Kapanlagi.com - The popularity of the South Korean entertainment industry is already worldwide. Not surprisingly, fans of Korean dramas and K-Pop music are widespread and often receive prestigious awards abroad. The actors and entertainers from South Korea often hold fan meetings, concerts, or visit foreign countries to greet their fans or simply for traveling.

One of the countries with a large population of Korean entertainment fans is Indonesia. This is one of the reasons why Indonesia is often chosen as a destination for Korean celebrities to hold concerts, fan meetings, or other activities.

When visiting a country, Korean celebrities will surely taste the local cuisine. The same goes for when they are in Indonesia. Indonesian dishes, known for their strong and flavorful spices, often suit the taste of Korean celebrities, making them really enjoy these dishes. Here are some South Korean celebrities who admit to loving Indonesian cuisine:

 

 

 

 

1. Lee Min Ho

Lee Min Ho is one of the South Korean celebrities who frequently visit Indonesia for various reasons, such as starring in commercials and Indonesian television shows. This also makes him often enjoy Indonesian cuisine. 

Indeed, there is one Indonesian dish that is a favorite of this handsome actor. Lee Min Ho really likes Nasi Goreng (Indonesian fried rice). According to him, fried rice has the perfect taste on his palate. He loves it so much that Lee Min Ho can finish three portions of fried rice at once.

 

 

 

2. Siwon Super Junior

Not to be outdone by Lee Min Ho, Siwon Super Junior also often travels between Korea and Indonesia. Siwon Super Junior often comes to Indonesia for some collaboration projects, appearing in several commercials, and holding fan meetings to greet his fans.
