QUIZ: How Well Do You Know Shinhwa?

 

Belinda_C September 11, 2017

 

 

I’m a huge fan of Shinhwa. A huuuuge fan, and I absolutely love them to bits! And my love for them has driven me on a mission to spread the love to everyone else as well.

Shinhwa are legends! As simple as that. They are first generation K-pop idols, and they are still active, even after 20 years. And perhaps more impressively, they have the same members without any line-up changes! If you’re not convinced of their awesomeness, then have a read at this.

 

Everyone else, scroll down and test your knowledge of all things Shinhwa!

 

GIVE IT TRY EVERYBODY~

Effortlessly Classy Idols And Their Not-So-Classy Selves

 

Belinda_C September 12, 2017

 

Quoted Eric Only-

 

Shinhwa’s Eric

 

 

Eric, recently married, is practically an ahjussi. But his fans lovingly refer to him as Mun-Three-Year-Old, because that’s how old he acts most of the time.

 

This is how much he loves his members.

 

This is how much he loves the pink flamingo floatie.

 

And this is how much he loves…golf?

Shinhwa Quote Only-

Shinhwa vs. Shinhwa

Halfway through a V Live broadcast, Eric suddenly jumps up from his seat, runs over to the wall, jumps up and hits it. The other members, without a second thought, follow suit. And in typical Shinhwa fashion, someone gets hurt.

R. Choi September 12, 2017

 

 

Shinhwa and Red Velvet will be appearing on “Happy Together 3.”

 

During the recording for the upcoming episode, Red Velvet’s Joy and Yeri meet Shinhwa. When asked if there is a senior group on set that they really liked, Yeri replies, “Our promotion period overlapped with Shinhwa,” revealing that she is a fan. On the flip side, Joy jokes, “I feel apologetic towards [Shinhwa], but I liked TVXQ,” causing everyone to laugh.

 

 

Joy and Yeri also talk about the rumors they heard regarding Shinhwa while they were still trainees. Yeri shares, “It’s actually well known that the Super Junior members are free-spirited. But we heard that the Shinhwa members were more [free-spirited] than Super Junior.” Lee Min Woo humbly admits to the rumors and responds, “In whatever we do, we like to create myths.”

 

Meanwhile, Red Velvet and Shinhwa’s appearance on KBS 2TV’s “Happy Together 3” is set to air on September 14 at 11:10 p.m. KST.

AOA’s Seolhyun Asks Shinhwa’s Eric What It’s Like To Be Married

 

A. P September 16, 2017

 

 

On the September 15 broadcast of tvN’s “Three Meals a Day,” AOA’s Seolhyun asked the singer and actor Eric what it’s like to be married.

 

Although it was awkward at first because she didn’t know any of the cast, she melted into the atmosphere of the show naturally as time passed. Seolhyun boldly asked Eric on the way back home after working on the island, “Do you like being married?” No one on the show had asked the direct question before.

 

At that, Eric answered, “I don’t see much of a difference.” He added, “When we were just dating, my wife had a curfew of midnight. That’s gone now, so I like that. We had the curfew for five years and it’s nice that it’s gone.”

 

He said about his wife Na Hye Mi, “She was more like a best friend to me than a girlfriend. I feel comfortable with her and like it that way.”

 

Through this honest talk, Eric and Seolhyun became closer and began to bond more over the rest of the episode.

Shinhwa's Minwoo under fire for taking photos of movie without permission

 

 

Shinhwa's Minwoo is under fire for taking photos during a screening of the movie 'Kingsman: The Golden Circle' without permission.
 

On September 29, Minwoo posted three photos of his movie outing on social media with a line by Colin Firth's character, "Manners maketh man." However, he's now being criticized for one of the photos as it revealed a scene from the film, which is still playing in theaters. 
 

Minwoo followed up with an apology, writing, "I sincerely apologize to the 'Kingsman' film producers and to those who felt uncomfortable by my careless actions. It's my definite mistake, and I'll acknowledge my wrongful actions and sincerely reflect. I'll be more careful in the future. I apologize."

Shinhwa's Minwoo isn't the only one who's received criticism for taking photos of a film as actors Gong Hyun Joo and Kim Rae Won previously came under fire for the same reason.

What do you think of the criticism?

Here’s What Fan Taken Idol Photos Looked Like In The 90’s

 

 

Fan-taken film camera photos of Shinhwa in the 90’s have popped online up, and fans are reminiscing at how they used to capture their favorite idols back in the day.

 

Taking high-quality photos of your favorite idol is now incredibly easy with a good DSLR and compatible lens, but in the 90’s, fans had to rely on something far more difficult – film cameras.

The quality of these photos was quite often very grainy if taken in the dark and the flash would degrade the amount of detail in the photos, or even make the photos blurry. Also, the date and time of when the photo was taken were always embedded into the film in the bottom right corner which often looked unsightly on the image.

 

Despite the low quality, fans still took photos of idols with these film cameras as it was the only way to capture the memories of seeing their favorite idols in the flesh.

 

Check out some of these film camera photos of Shinhwa taken in the late 90’s!

 

Eric’s short spiky hair and thick chain was a trendy look in the 90’s.

 

Shin Hyesung’s sharp profile and clear complexion are visible even in low-quality film camera photos.

 

Junjin looks so young in this photo!

Old articles..

 

Question: An 8 year old child dancing with such skill, weren't your parents worried?

 

 

JunJin: At that time, I didn't have people to worry about me.

 

Kang Ho Dong: What?

 

JunJin: I didn't have parents at home.

 

Kang Ho Dong: But you have parents.

 

JunJin: When I was born, I was raised by my grandmother. (In Korean, it's explained differently.)

 

Kang Ho Dong: What do you mean by that?

 

JunJin: As soon as my real mother had me, due to the opposition from her side of the family, she left us. (He revealed her side of the family didn't want her to live in the condition that his father and grandmother was in. Meaning, they weren't well off.)

 

Kang Ho Dong: Oh. (The mood beginning to pour in with sorrow and tense.)

 

JunJin: So, I lived with my grandmother.

 

Kang Ho Dong: And your father?

 

JunJin: My father sent money to my grandmother for daily use and barely came to visit. And during elementary school [4th grade], I met my second mother. Once she came along, I always thought oh I have to go to my grandmothers. It didn't sink in that I had a new mother. When I was in middle school [6th grade], one day my father gave me a beeper. Whenever it beeped, I would run to wherever my dad told me to go. I would run as fast as I can as if I was in love or something. I would receive my weekly allowance from my father and then go to this same restaurant and ate squid mixed with rice watching the daily news on TV for three straight years. When it came to lunch time at school, I didn't have any food. I would end up asking for some food from my friends. I would end up eating from a lot of my friends but I would still be hungry. At that age, I understood the true meaning of home made food. I've never said "Mom, make me food," once in my whole life. Even to my new mother, I couldn't say it directly to her. I don't know if I'm senseless or not but when friends would disrespect or negative attitude their own mothers, I would get angry and tell them don't do that to your parents. What kind of act is that? I don't even have.......

 

Kang Ho Dong: During those hard times, do you think your love for dance relieved your stress?

 

JunJin: Of course. Whenever my friends went to go outside and play, I would practice dancing. My passion for dancing was really strong and sometimes I think that's why I ended up in Shinhwa. I also end up thinking because I was practicing dance nonstop at the time, I can still dance powerfully at age 29.

 

Kang Ho Dong: How do you overcome your fears?

 

JunJin: Whenever I go through hard times, I always think about my grandmother. Knowing that my grandmother isn't alive just pains me. I don't even want to think about it one bit. When I entered elementary school, the class went on a field trip. All the mothers came along and ate kim bab. But I sat alone and would join other friends and their mothers to eat. My grandmother at the time couldn't walk properly. She took an expensive bus all the way down and walked all the way up to the mountain where we were. Simply to give me some kim bab, she came all the way here. For some reason, I didn't like what she did. Everyone came with their mothers. Even though my grandmother was sick, she came all the way here and I thought people would look at me badly and point at me. I told my grandmother to just go and she was crying as she went down. After three hours, I went back down and I saw my grandmothers eyes very red knowing that she cried a lot. Honestly, it isn't a life that my grandmother wanted. It's not even a life that I expected either. To this day, that moment was such a crush to my heart.

 

Kang Ho Dong: Is your spot for you mother still open? Or is it closed?

 

JunJin: It would be a lie if I said it was all gone. A lot of is gone though. But, my new mother is my best friend. It was really hard to call her mother. That's why my father told me to call her mommy instead in a joking way. I couldn't seem to directly add mother in every sentence when I spoke to her. "Are you sick?" "Did you eat dinner yet?" When I was 24, my new mother helped me find my real mother. When I met her, it was like a scene from a movie. It would have been awkward if I went alone so I brought a friend along....

[Video] Shinhwa Jun Jin’s Painful Past With His Mothers Revealed

 

Shinhwa’s Jun Jin and his father, Charlie Park, are known to have a strong relationship as father and son in the entertainment industry, but not much is known about Jun Jin’s relationship with his mother.

The truth is that the mother he has now is actually his third mother, revealing a history of pain when it comes to mothers in Jun Jin’s life.

Jun Jin was born out of wedlock and due to strong opposition from his maternal family, Jun Jin’s mother and father split, leaving Jun Jin to grow up in the hands of his grandmother.

 

 

It wasn’t until his father’s third spouse that Jun Jin began warming up to his mother, who especially poured love towards Jun Jin and his little sister.

As he reached puberty and started questioning the existence of his birth mother, his stepmom promised to help him meet her when he becomes an adult.

But once he met his birth mother, Jun Jin promised himself to never meet her again, afraid of creating pain for her and the family she’s created.

Despite all these familial hardships he’s gone through, Jun Jin still respects his father, loves his stepmother, and understands his birth mother.

Watch Jun Jin’s painful history of mothers below.
