"Hallyu" stars Lee Byung-hun and Choi Ji-woo created a stir in Japan by arriving in the country in quick succession within 10 minutes of each other. On May 6, the sports daily Sports Nippon wrote that Lee and Choi arrived at Narita International Airport on May 5 from Los Angeles and New York, respectively, within a 10-minute difference.

Sports Nippon also wrote that some 600 fans, including 20 people who had waited for their favorite actors all night long, greeted Lee and Choi at the airport.

Lee and Choi arrived in Japan to participate in the finale of the "Beautiful Days" concert on May 6 and 7 at the Tokyo International Forum. When the two appeared in the airport lobby, their fans screamed with joy, said Sports Nippon.

Another sports daily, Sports Hochi, wrote that Lee and Choi were originally planning to leave the airport via the VIP exit to avoid any disturbance, but later decided to pass through the lobby in accordance with their fans' wishes.

"Choi Ji-woo, who was wearing a big brown scarf, a white coat, jeans and sunglasses and carrying a blue bag, waved to her fans", wrote Sports Hochi.
