The "W - Two Worlds" star also included a short poem in the said Instagram message that revealed his growing frustration in catching some of the Pokemon characters. It appears that he was trying to capture two of the mobile gaming app's creatures namely Dragonite and Snorlax.

He wrote, "It is difficult even just to meet you. Even if I do meet you, I cannot catch you with my small hand. Your name is Dragonite. I thought you would hold my hand, but you just turn your back and close your eyes. Your name is Snorlax."

Many of Lee's Instagram followers found the actor's social media update amusing and conveyed their support for his "Pokemon Go" interest. Some even praised the "Pinocchio" star's poem writing skills and labeled it as "cute."

Meanwhile, Lee recently held several successful fan meetings in Japan. In a statement released by the actor's agency, as obtained by Yonhap News, YG Entertainment shared that a total of 5,000 fans came to attend the said two-day event.

Held in Saitama's Omiya Sonic City Big Hall, tickets to Lee's two "Variety" fan meetings in Japan were sold out even if the event was held on a Wednesday and Thursday. Moreover, the event's daily 2,500 audience count marked an enlarged seating capacity given the Japanese fans' increased demand for tickets.
