If you are a fan of the dramas "Super Rookie" or "Couple or Trouble," which air on Mondays and Tuesdays at 9:30 p.m., you're in for a hallyu thrill: actor Oh Ji Ho is scheduled to come to Hawai'i. According to Gerrie Nakamura, president of the club Hallyu Friends, Oh Ji Ho is touching down in Honolulu to meet his fans this week.

Oh Ji Ho, born in 1976, is a model and TV and movie star who appeared in "Super Rookie." He's working on the film "Couple or Trouble" and starred in the movie "My Wife is a Gangster 3." Oh Ji Ho was also in the dramas "Thank you Life," "Autumn Shower," "Second Proposal," "Confession," and "Cool."

He is scheduled to arrive Tuesday, and will attend fan-club meetings until Thursday, followed by a few days of relaxing in the Islands. The trip is Oh Ji Ho's second to Honolulu — he was here in May 2006 for a fundraiser, along with many other stars.

Oh Ji Ho fans formed a club for him on April 1, and already it has local and international members. The scheduled meeting with Oh Ji Ho — held jointly by the Oh Ji Ho Fan Club and Hallyu Friends — is set for 5:30 p.m. Wednesday at the Japanese Cultural Center of Hawai'i. The event includes dinner and costs $50 for members and $100 for nonmembers. If you'd like to join, the initiation fee is $20, with annual dues of $10.

For more information, reach Gerrie Nakamura at 382-8640 or at cagee808@hotmail.com.
