EPop (E): HeeChul whose image is always the most outstanding, are
your expectations for the dressing of your future girlfriend the same?
HeeChul:
Of course it’s not so! I don’t like my girlfriend to dress too
skimpily, or have too many piercings, actually I’m a very conservative
person. (E: Even regarding relationship?) En, I had proposed to a girl
i liked once, but she said that there was already someone whom she
liked. I told her that if i had known earlier that she had someone whom
she liked, I wouldn’t have treated her like that, and she wouldn’t have
to go through so much pain…
E:SungMin was awarded ‘2007 Best Smile Award’ by a certain Korean magazine, why do you think you got this award?
SungMin: It
should be because I smile a lot! But actually the other members also
smile~why is it just me alone? Maybe my image is that of a more
friendly one, hence giving a feeling of comfort and cuteness. But some
fans say that I’m more cool, maybe i’m not really friendly to everyone,
only that i greet everyone with a friendly smile…
E: How’s the role allocaton between YeSung and the other members in the hostel?
YeSung: In
our hostel, there’s me, RyeoWook, SungMin, EunHyuk and KyuHyun. Amongst
the few of us, I’m the one who likes to clean my room the most, and
SungMin likes to decorate his room, RyeoWook’s the best at cooking,
RyeoWook likes to cook for the members, just like a mum! KyuHyun hasn’t
fully recovered yet, so he’s still staying with his parents, but he’ll
be able to stay with us after a while.
E: As SJ’s leader, are
there any members in SJ that you feel are helpful aides? Even when
you’re not around, the person can act as the second leader to lead the
whole SJ?
LeeTeuk: The second leader? We have discussed
this question privately before! But I still feel that the role of
leader suits me the best, Ha! If I have to choose, I think it’ll be
KangIn, (he) used to help me a lot in the past, but it could be due to
his busy schedule recently, he has been neglecting it now. That’s why
recently it’s become EunHyuk and DongHae who are playing the role of
‘The Second Leader’. They listen to me a lot, and often ask me ‘Hyung,
how about we try again? What does hyung think?’ And i host a radio
programme with Eunhyuk, so the two of us often discuss the future
development of the group.
E: SiWon’s popularity is not only
high in China, HongKong and Taiwan these Chinese countries, but you’re
also popular in Thailand?
SiWon: The other time i shot a CF that
i was the spkesperson for it in Thailand, I realised what left a deep
impression on me was that the fans made me feel warm, very happy. And
the thai fans are rather cute, feels very familiar, just like Koreans,
I don’t know if i’m just thinking too much, but I always feel that
Thais have very beautiful eyes, my ideal type are girls with beautiful
eyes!
EPop (E): Heard that when HanGeng first joined SJ, EunHyuk told HanGeng a big lie?
EunHyuk:
Haha! This was revealed by KiBum, actually when HanGeng first entered
the company, we introduced ourselves. And I lied to him that my name
was ‘WonBin’, and in the end this China trainee (HanGeng) called me
‘WonBin’ for the next 3 months!!!
E: Did you feel that you looked like WonBin?
EunHyuk:
I didn’t say that, just that when I laugh, I show my gums too, and I
happened to see WonBin on TV, when he smiles he also shows his gums, so
that’s why I feel that I look like WonBin!
E: In these two years, What do you feel has been your greatest change?
HanGeng: I feel that my biggest change is that i have matured in all areas. (E: So what’s the greatest improvement?)
If you’re talking about improvement, because I started out as a singer,
in this period of time I have been learning things other than being a
singer, for example acting, hosting etc, now I am training myself to
improve. The greatest improvement should be my confidence, compared to
when I first debuted, I am now confident in everythng that I do, I feel
is the greatest improvement!
E: Talk about your most memorable overseas promotional trip!
KangIn:
It should be the first time when we performed in China! That was where
we sang three songs continuously, originally thought that not many
people knew us, neither have they heard our songs, didn’t expect that
when we sang on stage, so many people sang along with us off the stage,
and later I even heard the fans ringtones which were set to our songs.
This surprised me, and also made me very happy. To be able to complete
our first performance in China, we felt very happy and also very
satisfied!
E: Are there any nicknames for each other when the members are together?
DongHae:
We’ll come up with nicknames for each other when we are together, but
we won’t call each other by nickname often. Why do we call SungMin ‘Dan
HoBak’? Because he was shooting a drama at that time, and in the show,
there was a line ‘Please buy me some Dan HoBak (Sweet pumpkin)’, so we
nicknamed him ‘Dan HoBak’. For KyuHyun, he’s very addicted to gaming
and watching dramas, this gaming skills are very good too, it has
reached a professional level, so sometimes we’ll call him ‘Game Hyun’,
or when he watches dramas, we’ll call him ‘Dra Hyun’.
E: Congratulations to KyuHyun on returning to the stage that belongs to SJ! Anything to say to your supporters?
KyuHyun:
To all the cheers that the Elves have given us, I don’t know what to
say. Even though I didn’t rest for long, but it felt like forever to
me, after being away from the stage for a few months, when I stood at
the backstage, I felt very nervous. At this time, I heard the loudest,
most touching screams ever. Just like I ended my first time on stage,
couldn’t remember clearly what went on, I felt the same way again. The
fans’ love is my strength, so I’m back! To return your love, I will put
in more effort, please continue to take note of us! I LOVE ELF!!

(E): KiBum has lives in The States, what experience has the five years
left on you? Or has it changed the way you look at life?
KiBum:
From 11 years old till 16, I lived in the US, maybe it’s because life
in the states is more carefree, at the beginning I couldn’t get used to
the age hierachy. I don’t have a concept of ‘hyung’ and ‘dongsaeng’,
Korea is a country where there is a serious sense of hierachy, unlike
in the US, where eveyone are like friends. It was rather difficult when
I first tried to get used to it. But because I am still a Korean, so I
got used to it after a while.
E: Regarding the plump representative in the group ShinDong, can RyeoWook tell us some of his good points?
RyeoWook:
What’s good about ShinDong is that whatever I cook, he loves it, every
night when I cook, the person who’ll definitely eat is ShinDong hyung.
He’s never picky with his food, and everything he eats looks delicious.
And if I go somewhere, he will go with me, when I’m tired or lonely
he’ll accompany me by my side.
E: Towards members’ ‘magnae’ RyeoWook, is there anything that ShinDong wants to say to him?
ShinDong: RyeoWook
really loves to cook, and the only member who eats is me! Really
tortures me, why does he always ask me to try his cooking? He’s the
kind of person who, when he sees someone trying his cooking, he’ll feel
a sense of satisfaction. Especially after I eat his food, he’ll feel
very full, in the end I am the only one growing fats, he doesn’t grow
fat at all. I hope that he can change this, let’s eat together in the
future ok?
