Actor Song Joong-ki has reunited with Japanese fans for the first time in 14 years, filling both cities with warmth, nostalgia, and long-awaited excitement.
On November 12 (Tokyo) and November 14 (Osaka), Song hosted his fan event “2025 SONG JOONG KI FANMEETING: Stay Happy in Japan.” It marks his first official fan meeting in Japan since becoming a husband and father — and the atmosphere was electric from beginning to end.
A Heartfelt Opening, in Japanese
Song Joong-ki opened the night by singing a Japanese version of “Confession”, immediately melting the audience. His voice, paired with the surprise performance, set the tone for an intimate and emotional evening.
Honest Talk, Personal Stories, and Close Communication
During the talk segment, Song shared moments from his daily life: what brings him happiness, small routines he cherishes, and how fatherhood has changed him.
To connect more closely with fans, he wrote his answers directly in Japanese on a tablet — and whenever he was unsure about a phrase, he cheerfully asked the crowd for help. The room filled with laughter and warmth.
A Touching Moment With a Long-Time Fan
One of the most memorable moments came when Song spotted a fan holding a slogan from his 2011 Japanese fan meeting. Deeply moved, he asked for the slogan, signed it backstage, and personally returned it to the fan — thanking them for 14 years of unwavering support.
Special Guests Made the Night Even Brighter
Actors Yang Kyung-won, Oh Ui-shik, and Lim Chul-soo joined as surprise guests. Their playful chemistry with Song and energetic performances made the room erupt in laughter, showcasing the strong friendship between the four actors.
“Your Faces Gave Me Strength” — Song Joong-ki’s Message
In his closing remarks, Song said:
“Seeing your faces up close after such a long time gave me so much strength. I was reminded of how grateful I am to be an actor. I’ll never forget the love you’ve shown me.”
Even after the event ended, he stayed until the very last fan left, waving and saying goodbye one by one — a gesture that touched the entire audience.
The “Stay Happy” fan meeting will be remembered as a deeply emotional reunion, celebrating Song Joong-ki’s new chapter in life and his enduring bond with fans who have supported him for more than a decade.
