Unfortunately, his current Asia Fan Meet schedule does not have any Indian city and so Indian fans will have to wait to meet Soo-hyun in person.
According to reports by Tatlerasia, Kim Soo-hyun might also surprise his fans with stops at additional locations during his tour. His fanbase has only grown over the years, with viewers consistently impressed by his outstanding performances in various television dramas and films.
