Dosas and Yoga: South Korean Star Lee Min-ki Vacations in South India

South Korean actor Lee Min-ki, known for his roles in K-dramas like Love Truly and Very Ordinary Couple, is on a trip in India, and his itinerary is a blend of devotion and indulgence. While the actor donned a traditional veshti to offer prayers at the iconic Arunachaleswarar Temple in Tamil Nadu's Tiruvannamalai, his next stop in Varkala saw him unwinding with beachside yoga, sunset gazing, and casual shack lounging. Food stole the show too: Lee was seen savouring a crispy cone dosa dunked in chutneys and sambar, sipping cutting chai, and refreshed with tender coconut water.

His Instagram post captioned "Varkala. Tiruvannamalai." was paired with a profound Ramana Maharshi quote: “Not seeking what is other than self is desirelessness. Not leaving the self is wisdom,” Lee has evidently picked up the wisdom from Arunachaleswarar Temple visit, echoing the site's spiritual aura tied to sage Ramana Maharshi.

Lee's photos quickly went viral, racking up likes from fans back home and with K-drama enthusiasts in India. Social media buzzed with admiration for his low-key vibe, no flashy selfies, and just genuine immersion. "From solving mysteries on screen to savouring dosa off it, I love this!," a fan commented

For non-K-drama fans hooked by Behind Your Touch, it's a reminder of his effortless appeal beyond the screen. As Bollywood and South cinema continue to globalize, stars like Lee Min-ki highlight India's magnetic pull, spiritual,& flavorful.
