Kim Hyun Joong has reaffirmed his hot star status in China.

On November 17, the singer/actor made an appearance on the wildly popular variety program, Happy Camp which airs weekly on China’s Hunan TV. 




Kim Hyun Joong opened his guest appearance with an eye-catching performance of Breaking Dawn before taking part in the show’s games and chatting with the show’s MCs. 

After the episode’s airing, viewership ratings revealed some stunning numbers including a viewership rating of 2.84 percent among China’s 29 provinces, a nation-wide rating of 2.48 percent and a 7.14 percent of the market share for its time slot. 





As a member of Hunan TV explained, “The 2.84 percent viewership rating by Kim Hyung Joong is a fairly large number. They are higher than the ratings that were brought in by Jang Keun Suk (2.54 percent) and Lee Min Ho (2.65 percent).”
