Kim became a huge superstar in Asia after portraying the role of an immortal alien on Earth who fell in love with a girl portrayed by Jun Ji-hyun in “My Love From the Star”, a South Korean hit TV drama.
The Korean superstar now has a total of 16 endorsement deals in China. These include deals with Hyundai Motors, Coca-Cola, Samsung Electronics and The Face Shop. Kim would also endorse products from companies including ZIOZIA, Propecs, Semir, Beyond, Samsonite Red, Bean Pole and Petitzel.
Kim Soo-hyun would also be the leading endorser for the Lotte Department Store, Haagen-Dazs and Yili Group.
The famous Korean star has bagged a hefty CNY1 million on April 20 shortly after 90 seconds during a car exhibition in Beijing.
Aside from his newly signed 16 endorsements, the 26 year old Korean actor and model has also inked a deal with Zhejiang based Aokang Shoes. The endorsement contract, signed on May 21, was reported to have a value of CNY10 million.
Kim’s TV drama My Love from the Star has already ended last February but his fans in China have been updated about the latest with the Korean superstar. Chinese fans have been frantic in purchasing any product he has and would endorse.
Other Chinese fans also posted on Twitter-clone Weibo that they have plans to visit the Kim Soo-hyun museum in South Korea. Furthermore, fans also said that they would like to open a new account in Hana Bank to be able to get hold of the Kim Soo-hyun themed passbook.
