Conan O'Brien arrives at Incheon International Airport on Sunday.

Over 1,000 Korean fans showed up at Incheon International Airport for the arrival of American television host Conan O'Brien on Sunday.

O'Brien is recording a special episode of his talk show "Conan" in Seoul.

His visit was prompted by letters a Korean teenage girl sent him with a box of Korean snacks. He said he would come here to personally thank her, and indeed met her at Incheon and took a selfie with her.

He is also to hold a fan meet on Monday and shoot a segment in a folk village.

Conan, as he is known to everyone, graduated from Harvard and hosted NBC's "Late Night Show" for 15 years from 1993.
