During the fan meet, the actor played games with the fans, learned and spoke Filipino words, and answered daring questions from the fans.
The fans wanted to know what he does first thing in the morning upon waking up. Here is what Kim Seon-ho said, "These days, I usually start my day with breakfast with my family. It's not been long since I started living with my parents. When I lived alone, I used to skip breakfast."
The fans also clamored to know the similarities and the differences between Korea's "good boy" and his character in "Start-Up," Han Ji-pyeong.
He responded the similarities are with their "personality, wit, and smile." He added he liked portraying the character when he met the grandmother. The actor added the difference is in the financial status, saying the character of Han Ji-pyeong is "very rich."
The fans also asked for his dream vacation spot. He answered, "I once visited Cebu. I visited a resort after a shooting. I want to go back to Cebu."
