Let \(X\) be a compact complex surface, i.e. a compact \(2\)-dimensional complex manifold. For a Hermitian metric \(h\) on \(X\) and its associated Kähler form \(\omega\), the Lee form \(\theta\) is defined by \(d\omega=-2\theta\wedge\omega\). A compact complex surface admits a Kähler metric if and only if its first Betti number \(b_{1}(X)\) is even. When \(b_{1}(X)\) is odd, the author gives, through case-by-case verification on the Kodaira classification of compact complex surfaces: 1) the classification of non-Kähler surfaces which are locally conformally Kähler, or equivalently admit a Hermitian metric such that the Lee form \(\theta\) is closed; 2) the classification of locally conformally Kähler surfaces such that the Lee form \(\theta\) can be made parallel with respect to \(h\) by a conformal change of the metric. The author also classifies complex surfaces admitting locally homogeneous locally conformally Kähler structure.
