Lee Min Ho for Bench, seriously?
Global brand Bench has been reported to sign another Korean star as its newest Bench international endorser. After getting Super Junior's Siwon and Donghae as it's K-POP models, it is now abuzz that Korean superstar Lee Min Ho will also join the roster of Bench endorsers.
In a Philippine Star article posted June 15, it was confirmed that Bench has signed another popular Korean actor as its newest endorser. The said K-Pop actor "enjoys a huge following in Asia, the Philippines included, and he has starred in several Koreanovelas aired in the country."
Although Philstar's Funfare is not at liberty yet to reveal the identity of the Bench's newest K-Pop endorser, clues were pointing to Lee Min Ho. Even the censored picture posted in the site had resemblance to Lee Min Ho.

Lee Min Ho became popular in the Philippines playing Gu Jun Pyo in Boys Over Flowers, a hit Korean remake of the popular Manga, Hana Yori Dango. He then starred in two other Koreanovelas aired on ABS-CBN, Perfect Match (Personal Preference) and the action-packed City Hunter which enjoyed high ratings in the country.
Bench has just concluded the deal in Seoul last Monday, capped by a pictorial for the brand’s billboards and posters, according to Funfare. So let's just wait for the official announcement whether it is really Lee Min Ho as the newest Bench endorser.
