Madame Tussauds Singapore, a premier destination in the global circuit of iconic wax museums, has added another gem to their celebrity ensemble – the beloved South Korean actor Hyun Bin. This grand revelation marks the actor’s inaugural entry into the museum’s collection of wax figures.
Gaining global recognition for his mesmerizing performance in the acclaimed Korean drama “Crash Landing on You”, Hyun Bin’s charm has captivated millions of hearts worldwide. This sentiment will now resonate in the hallowed halls of Madame Tussauds Singapore as his lifelike wax figure rubs shoulders with the effigies of other luminaries like Michelle Yeoh, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Nicole Kidman.
Devoting over half a year to creation, the wax rendition of Hyun Bin is a product of meticulous labour and dedication from an assembly of skilled artists and sculptors. Following exhaustive research, the team was able to encapsulate not just Hyun Bin’s physical likeness but also his distinct personality traits. One unique touch is a synthesized heartbeat, which pulsates as visitors draw closer, offering an unforgettable interactive experience with the Korean sensation.
Steven Chung, General Manager of Madame Tussauds Singapore, expressed excitement over this latest addition. “Introducing our first Hyun Bin wax figure to Madame Tussauds Singapore is exhilarating. Hyun Bin’s immense popularity and adoration across South Korea and globally is well-known, and we are eager to see fans react to his lifelike wax figure,” said Chung.
Hyun Bin expressed his exhilaration for this unveiling, stating, “I’m thrilled to present my wax figure to fans worldwide. The Madame Tussauds team has invested considerable effort and attention to detail in this project, and I am truly grateful for this unique opportunity.”
Adding Hyun Bin’s wax figure underscores Madame Tussauds Singapore’s commitment to crafting immersive and unforgettable experiences for their guests. As a major attraction in Singapore, the museum eagerly anticipates the influx of visitors eager to encounter its latest creations.
A touring figure, Hyun Bin’s wax double will grace Singapore for a limited duration! From 14th July to the end of September 2023, fans can purchase tickets to this sensational spectacle on Madame Tussauds Singapore’s official website, www.madametussauds.com/singapore, before the wax figure embarks on the next stop of its Asian tour.
