'Lu Lu finding tram boy' Facebook group stalks 'cute guy'

These days, all you need to achieve internet fame is to crash on the metro

"Cute guy" Han Re-xi is interviewed about being hunted down like a small, sleeping rabbit by a pack of Facebook wolves.

For Facebook user "Lu Lu," nothing says love like a camera phone snapshot of a "cute guy" catching a nap on the MRT in Taipei, Taiwan.

Given that we live in the age of social media when just about anyone can be tracked down online, Lu Lu figured she'd enlist the help of 500 of her closest Facebook friends in hunting the mystery metro man. A friend of Lu Lu's named Chris (not me), helped her set up a now deleted Facebook group that roughly translated to "Lu Lu finding tram boy."

Find 'tram boy' she did. The guy is 26-year old Han Re-xi and he "was recognized by a manager working in Sinyi Real Estate Agency," according to the Apple Daily News.

Unfortunately for Lu Lu, Han is already in a relationship and doesn't plan on using his newfound fame to play the field. Better luck next time, Lu Lu. But keep stalking the railways for guys; with your criteria for courtship, your train should come in soon.
