Bae Yong-joon photo collection goes on sale in Japan
SEOUL, Dec. 4 (Yonhap) -- A collection of photographs featuring Korean Wave star Bae Yong-joon will go on sale beginning February in Japan, the actor's Japan agent said Friday.
Bae, better known by the nickname "Yonsama" in Japan, gained explosive popularity in the country after playing the hero in the Korean TV series "Winter Sonata" in 2002. Since then, he has opened restaurants and launched a set of special lunchboxes featuring Korean food in Japan, eager to promote Korean culture in the neighboring country.
Bae's photo collection, which will go on sale beginning Feb. 22, is comprised of pictures taken during a year-long trip he took around Korea for his recently published book of essays, Digital Adventure said.
The Japanese publisher began accepting orders for the photo collection Friday.
