최근 방송된 TV조선 ‘솔깃한 연예 토크 호박씨’에서는 ‘차이나 대륙을 사로잡은 슈퍼스타’라는 주제로 이야기가 오갔다.

이날 방송에서 김태훈은 “‘별에서 온 그대’가 아시아 15개국에서 방영됐다. 하지만, 중국에서는 지상파에서 방영되지 않았다”며 “김수현이 극 중에서 외계인이라는 설정 때문이다”라고 말했다.

이어 그는 “그래서 한 인터넷 사이트에서 드라마의 판권을 산 뒤 게재하게 되면서 중국에 알려졌다”면서 “무려 31억 조회수를 기록하면서 중국에서 큰 인기를 얻었다”고 설명했다.

방송인 이상민은 “현재 김수현이 사는 집이 시세로 40억 원 정도 하는데, 한 중국 팬이 옆집 사는 사람에게 45억 원을 제시하면서 집을 사려고 했다”며 “하지만, 옆집 사람이 팔지 않았다”고 전했다.

이에 MC 김구라는 “그 옆집 사람도 김수현을 좋아해서 팔지 않았을 거다”라고 말했다.

(Online) Kim Soo-hyun fan tried to buy house next door

A Chinese fan of actor Kim Soo-hyun reportedly attempted to buy the property next door to Kim’s for for an inflated price of 4.5 billion won ($3.7 million), according to local entertainment media.

During the latest episode of TV Chosun’s “Pumpkin Seed,” pop columnist Kim Tae-hoon talked about Kim’s popularity in China.

He said, “The drama ‘My Love from the Star’ aired in 15 Asian nations, but it was not broadcast in China because Kim’s character was an alien.”

“Since one Internet website bought the soap’s publication rights and published it online, the drama has garnered a whopping 3.1 billion views,” he added.

Entertainer Lee Sang-min said there was one Chinese fan who tried to buy the house next door to Kim’s by paying an additional 500 million won. The market price of Kim’s house is around 4 billion won.

“But, the owner of the house rejected the offer,” he added.

Host Kim Gura said, “The neighbor must also be a fan of Kim,” making others laugh.

Kim is set to star in the upcoming action film ”Real,“ which is scheduled to hit theaters in the latter half of next year.
