Singer Gary meets fans in Thailand, sharing updates with his son Hao

Singer Gary has drawn significant attention from local fans while spending time with his family in Thailand. On the 28th, Gary shared a video posted by his wife on her social media account, offering a glimpse into his family's daily life during their trip to Thailand.

In the released video, Gary and his son, Hao, are seen responding to requests for photos from local Thai fans. Immediately upon arriving at the airport, as fans approached to ask for pictures, Gary and Hao responded by striking V-signs. Their popularity continued on the streets, where people who recognized Gary and Hao in Thailand lined up to ask for commemorative photos.

Daily life in Thailand with a noticeably grown-up Hao

The family's journey is further captured in additional photos posted by his wife. In the photos, Hao is seen posing with his father, Gary, while holding a traditional scale, and the family is seen standing together making traditional prayer gestures. Hao, who first became known to viewers through "The Return of Superman," appears to have grown significantly since then.

Fans who saw the video expressed their joy at seeing how much Hao has grown. Reactions supporting the family's recent activities included comments such as, "It's so good to see Hao from 'The Return of Superman' after all this time," "They are still such a loving family," and "I hope they have a happy trip." Gary married a non-celebrity wife who is 10 years younger in 2017, and they have a son, Hao; he has been sharing his family's daily life through social media.

Recognition spanning from Running Man to The Return of Superman

Gary built a massive fandom across Asia during his time as an original member of the SBS variety show "Running Man." Despite reducing his broadcasting activities after leaving the program in 2016, the reaction from local fans during this visit to Thailand demonstrates his enduring popularity.

Later, Gary appeared on KBS2's "The Return of Superman" with his son Hao, showcasing their daily lives as father and son. Even though he has been away from broadcasting for about five years since leaving the program in 2021, the situation where overseas fans recognized him first and requested photos highlights his fame. Gary is currently traveling in Thailand with his family.
