-Jeno is so cute... He looks like a baby.

-Jaemin... He always stands out in every performance of 'Candy'

-Whoa... This somehow makes me feel weird... This is only possible because it's SM Ent.

-Truly powerful.

-This is bringing back so many memoriesㅠㅜ Both the original H.O.T. version and NCT's version of 'Candy' are so refreshing...

-It's amazing how Kangta and Tony's voices haven't changed.

-Why does this make me emotional?

-This grandma is crying...ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ

-Now I understand why Tony was so popularㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Their vocal cords haven’t aged at all. This makes me feel weirdㅠㅠ

-They must be glad to reunite in such situationㅋㅋㅋ

-They haven’t changed at all.

-If this photo was taken 20 years ago, people would've gone crazy over them linking arms like thatㅋㅋㅋ

-Ahn Seungho is such a cutie.

-The stars of the first albums I ever bought in my lifeㅠㅠ

-I want to see Kangta with them tooㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

I wonder if these male singers would still be popular if they debuted in this generation.jpg

 

COOL's Lee Jaehoon

H.O.T's Kangta

H.O.T's Tony Ahn

god's Yoon Kye-sang

SECHSKIES' Eun Jiwon

NRG's Noh Yoo-min

Jo Sungmo

pann

[+28][-0]

1. [+27][-0] People always love idols with mischievous looks and stan-attractor types like Eun Jiwon - Yoon Kye-sang and Plum (NB: Jo Sungmo) - Tony Ahn. Noh Yoo-min's face screams !!Visual!! and I think it'd play a big role on gaining some popularity for his group

2. [+25][-0] I think they can compete with male idols from this generation if they get the 'camera massage'. Besides, plastic surgery wasn't really common back then. Only people who are truly beautiful and handsome could be celebrities.

3. [+24][-0] Lee Jaehoon = Mischievous yet handsome main vocal. Yoon Kye-sang and Eun Jiwon = Tough, mafia-like style. Plum (NB: Jo Sungmo) = Beautiful voice + cure habits + stan-attractors. Tony Ahn = Stan-attractor who is good at dancing.

4. [+17][-0] Yes, except for Kangta

5. [+13][-0] It's funny how everyone calls Jo Sungmo 'Plum' instead of using his real nameㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ This is f*cking hilarious

The type of face that women unexpectedly really like

 

The monkey type

Big ears, baby face, and pretty smile

They may not have the typical handsome face, but people consistently say that they look cute

theqoo

-They look like baby monkeysㅋㅋㅋㅋ They're really charming

-It's not unexpected, though...

-Have you seen a monkey in real life?ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Ong Seongwoo is handsome... The rest are indeed more to cute rather than handsomeㅋㅋ

-Not exactly my type, but I agree...

-I like Beenzino, Neymar, and Loccoㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-They're all really handsome, though?ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Unexpectedly?? They've been my ideal types for as long as I can remember, though?

-I don't think women like the monkey type of face... They like handsome guys who happen to have the monkey type of face.

-Our Woong-ie is very handsome, though?

-Girls like them not because they have the monkey type of face. Girls like them because they're handsome.

-Ong Seongwoo is f*cking handsome, though?? His ears are not even that big

'I have 4 mothers, I am afraid of marriage' ... Tony Ahn's confession

 

On the episode of Channel A's Oh Eunyoung Golden Counseling Center that aired on the 29th, Tony Ahn says, 'Even when the thoughts of marriage come to me, I worry if I would ever become a good husband or father'. He continues, 'Marriage means spending the rest of your life with that one person. If I can't be a good man or father, wouldn't I harm a lot of people?'.

Oh Eunyoung proceeds to ask about the marriage life of his parents, to which Tony Ahn replies, 'My parents got divorced when I was 6. I have four mothers. 1 biological mother and 3 step mothers'.

He was asked if his father married three times, to which he answers 'It's true (he married 3 times). If I ever get married, would it be a good marriage? I've gone through such childhood, sometimes it makes me think if I would go through the same thing (as my father did)'. 

Tony Ahn also reveals that alcohol was the main reason behind the conflict between his father and step mothers. He says, 'I think alcohol has a big influence behind this. He talks in a really harsh way when he drinks, I avoid him too'. 

When asked about what kind of person his father is, Tony Ahn replies, 'I think this is a very difficult question. First of all, I see him as someone who did a great job raising me. Even if I couldn't feel it back then. I would think, 'Does my father love me?'. I had a hard time understanding him. I think we started sharing conversations ever since I started drinking with him. He somehow started seeing me as a friend that he feels comfortable being around with. Not too long after that, he passed away'.

theqoo

-Seems like he wasn't a good father afterall. He gave such a hard time to both his son and wives.

-I had no idea that he went through this all. I saw my mom crying while watching this episode but I didn't know the context of it.

-I have two moms as well, it's very hard for me...

-I can totally understand why he feels afraid of marriage. It seems like he's afraid he might turn out to be someone like his fatherㅠㅠ

-Hul... What did his son do wrong to deserve this?

-No matter how much you hate that person and swear to yourself that you won't let yourself be that kind of person... In the end, you can't help but be that person...

-Oh Eunyoung said in the show, 'You and your father are two different people. You and your father grew up in a different environment and have different pasts. It's impossible for the two of you to be alike'.

-I hope he gets to meet a good person and wish him all the happiness he deserves

-It hurts me just to read this post. What did he do wrong to deserve all of that?

-This Oppa deserves to be so much happier...

-I went through the same thing and decided to not get married at all. It has a big influence on making who you are right now, it shouldn't be taken easily.

-No wonder why he seems to have a lot of concerns about marriage...

-My heart hurts to know this...

The stage names Lee Sooman had suggested for SM artists, but were rejected

 

Tony Ahn

1st suggestion: Pickle (Because it suits his fresh image)

2nd suggestion: Tony (Originally, it's his English name)

>> If he used the name Pickle, he's afraid he's going to get a lot of offer to star in Pickle advertisements instead of Pizza. So he decided to go with Tony. 

Leeteuk

1st suggestion: Kangsu (Means 'precipitation', Lee Sooman wants him to bring the rain to the music industry)

2nd suggestion: Shin-i (Means the kid that God has sent)

3rd suggestion: Leeteuk (Means a special kid)

>> Right after the 2nd suggestion, he decided to go with Leeteuk

Shindong

1st suggestion: Woo-dong (Dong is taken from his real name + because it suits his chubby image)

2nd suggestion: Dong-chun (is actually the name of a Korean circus group, Lee Sooman chooses this name because Shindong has a lot of talent)

3rd suggestion: Shin-don (But then Shindong requested it to be 'Shindong)

>> There was a drama in MBC titled 'Shin-don' airing at that time, therefore he went with 'Shindong'

Kyuhyun

1st suggestion: Gwi-hyun (Because Kyuhyun is difficult to pronounce + it means 'precious')

2nd suggestion: Kyuhyun (His real name)

>> The manager heard Lee Sooman's stage name suggestion and opposed it, that's how he went with Kyuhyun instead

DBSK

1st suggestion: 오장육부/The Five Visceras and Six Entrails (Means just like the internal organs, this group can't leave out anyone)

2nd suggestion: 동방불패/Swordsman (Lee Sooman was inspired from the movie with the same title)

3rd suggestion: 동방신기 (Means Rising Gods from the east)

>> The 2nd suggestion was rejected because the Hanja was not aesthetically pleasing, that's how they went with DBSK

theqoo

-If DBSK had used 'The Five Visceras and Six Entrails', I wonder if they're using the organs' name as the members' stage names too...? Kidney-Yunho, Pancreas-Changmin...

-Was he even serious when he suggested all those names...?ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-I can't believe he almost named Shindong after a Circus group...

-It's so funny how the manager opposed the idea of 'Gwi-hyun'ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Isn't Gwi-hyun harder to pronounce than Kyuhyun...?

-What the heck is The Five Visceras and Six Entrails...ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ

-He has a fresh image and yet Lee Sooman was going to name him Pickle??? I thought Pickles were sourㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Kyuhyun's name is so pretty, why would you change that to Gwihyunㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-If they went with The Five Visceras and Six Entrails, we would have Kidney-Yunho, Liver-Yoochun, Heart-Junsu, Small Intestine-Changmin, and Large Intestine-Jaejoong...

-I wonder what would've happened if they decided to go with The Five Visceras and Six Entrailsㅋㅋ

-What the f*ckㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Shin-i was actually a good name...

Tony Ahn reveals the thing that Oh Hayoung said and made him shocked

'You're the same age with my father!'

Both Tony Ahn and Hayoung's father were born in 1978

theqoo

-Huk.. Her father is so young..ㄷㄷ

-Hul..ㅋㅋㅋ

-Don't you think her father is really young? If she was born in 1996 and her father in 1978, it means that her father had her when he was still in high school..

-Ah.. Seems like her father got married at a really young age..

-So what if he got married early.. He raised a really beautiful young woman.. 

-No wonder why Tony got really shocked..ㅋㅋ

-Red Velvet's Yeri was born in 1999 and her mother was born in 1977..

-I'm the same age with Hayoung and one of my brothers was born in 1978..ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-I heard she was raised by her grandmother when she was a child..?

-Ah.. Seems like her father had her at 18..
