This piece of news confirmed the unofficial news I posted earlier about Lee Jun Ki signing with Yin Wang (Emperor) to enter the Chinese markets.

I have taken the liberty to include the pinyin for Mandarin (standarized pronunciation) and Cantonese (no standardised phonetics yet) to get an idea of the tongue twister that Charlene Choi gave to Lee Jun Ki without him knowing earlier.

(Hong Kong) Lee Jun Ki who through “The King and The Clown” became popular in Asia, enters the Chinese market as his next step. The day before yesterday with HK$10 million worth (contract) he signed with Emperor Group of Hong Kong and formally enters the Greater China region´s entertainment arena.

In order to cohesively rally around Lee Jun Ki´s Asia and other area´s fans, Emperor, not only created his official fan club but also tailor made the website. Rumour has it that Lee Jun Ki will sing Chinese songs with Twins and also Ah Sa (Charlene Choi from Twins) gave him a Chinese wind breaker as a welcoming gift to Lee Jun Ki as her junior.

Ah Kew (Gillian Chung from the Twins) also taught Lee Jun Ki tai chi. Lee Jun Ki assumed Chinese martial arts posture for reporters to snap photos. Also taught, Lee Jun Ki to say “I love you (Wo ai ni)” in Mandarin to the fans. But Lee Jun Ki has long known that, so Ah Sa quickly changed to Cantonese and said “I love you (ngo ngoi le)” and give him a tongue twister “Dig (for) gold, dig (for) bone, dig (for) chicken bone (kwut kam kwut kuwut kwut kai kuwut” to pull his leg (make a fool of him). Thereafter, Ah Sa then told him that she wanted to make fun of him and that Lee Jun Ki has aptitude for mastering Cantonese.
