He will also visit some of the expo facilities, according to the organizers.
“We are very glad that he actually come to the exposition venue, although he promised to do that when he was appointed to a goodwill ambassador for the exposition,” said Lee Chgung-son, a spokesman for the organization committee. “You can have the chance to view the exposition facilities and also meet the world star on the 31st (of May).” (Yonhap News)
