Actor Yoo A-in held his first fan meeting in Japan over the weekend, according to his agency STARK Entertainment on Tuesday.

An official at STARK told 10Asia over the phone today that Yoo held his first fan meeting in Japan where he hosted a talk show and sang for some 900 fans gathered at the Shinagawa Stera Ball in Tokyo on May 28.

The fan meeting was held to celebrate the success of hit Korean historical drama ¡°SungKyunKwan Scandal¡± in Japan which Yoo starred in and also to commemorate the opening of Yoo¡¯s official Japanese fan club (http://www.yooain.jp).

"SungKyunKwan Scandal," which is a fusion history drama about the love and friendship of four students at Sungkyunkwan University in 18th century Korea, became an instant hit in Japan after being released in DVD format in April, ranking in the top five slots of the prestigious Oricon DVD daily chart the same month.

Yoo played Moon Jae-shin, the rebellious son in the family who despises his father for kowtowing to power and trying to bring justice with his own hands, in the show also starring Park Yuchun, Park Min-young and Song Joong-ki.

Yoo, 24, has appeared in several TV dramas including ¡°Strongest Chilwoo¡± (KBS, 2008) and ¡°The Man Who Can¡¯t Get Married¡± (KBS, 2009) as well as several films such as ¡°Antique¡± (2008) ¡°Boys of Tomorrow¡± (2006) and ¡°Shim¡¯s Family (2007).

He rose to stardom through ¡°SungKyunKwan Scandal¡± and most recently starred in a music cable channel Mnet¡¯s reality show ¡°Launch My Life¡± which was aired from February to April.
