South Korean actor Lee Min-Ki, best known for his nuanced performances in popular K-dramas, has chosen India as his holiday destination, delighting fans with glimpses from a serene trip to South India.
The actor recently shared photos and videos from Kerala and Tiruvannamalai on Instagram, capturing moments of quiet reflection, spirituality and everyday Indian experiences. His understated travel diary quickly won admiration from Indian fans for its simplicity and warmth.
From cone dosa to meditation by the hills
Min-Ki captioned his post simply: “Varkala. Tiruvannamalai.” The images show him exploring Varkala, sipping coconut water, enjoying cone dosa and cutting chai, visiting temples, practising yoga and meditating atop a hill. Several photos show him sitting by the beach at sunset, soaking in the calm of the surroundings.
Fans also noticed the actor comfortably dressed in Indian attire, blending seamlessly into local settings. One clip that stood out showed Min-Ki at an airport clicking photos for a group of strangers—apparently unaware of his celebrity status—further adding to the charm of his low-key visit.
Fans react to actor’s low-profile India trip
Indian fans flooded the comments section with excitement. “Bro just casually visited where I live,” one user wrote, while another joked, “Did strangers ask you to take a pic of them?” Others suggested places to explore, urging him not to miss Kerala’s backwaters.
Han Ji-Min joins the fun online
A light-hearted exchange with Han Ji-Min, his co-star from Behind Your Touch, also caught attention. Han commented playfully on his post, to which Min-Ki responded with humour, prompting fans to hope she might visit India too.
A career built on quiet intensity
Apart from fan-favourite series such as Because This Is My First Life, The Beauty Inside and My Liberation Notes, Lee Min-Ki has appeared in films including Spellbound and Very Ordinary Couple.
His tranquil Indian getaway has now added another reason for fans to admire him—proof that sometimes, the most memorable trips are the quiet ones.
