Episode I: Don't read off the press release!
As Junjin was introducing the 9th album to the reporters, the members started to give suspicious looks as he gave clear and structured answers. At this time, Eric embarrassed Junjin by asking the reporters, "Do you all have the press release? Is it the same as what Junjin is saying?" Junjin retorted, "Yes I am, but at least I memorized it", to which Eric replied, "I'm sorry."
The members added that being able to joke around and be frank with each other, that is the reason why they have been able to stay together all these years. As the members all answered the questions in detail, and their comments got more interesting as they went down the line, it gave Andy (the last to answer questions) quite a bit of pressure.
Epsiode II: Overseas fans from all over the world
When we headed to Olympic Park on the concert day, we finally felt the popularity of Hallyu stars Shinhwa. Fans from Japan, Taiwan, China and other countries passed us by. Wearing the symbolic orange shirt of Shinhwa fans, excitement and anticipation were written all over their faces. Watching the concert, we were momentarily confused as we heard a slew of foreign languages being spoken around us: Were we in Korea or were we overseas?
Episode III: Family planning for the Shinhwa members?
Shinhwa members have all unknowingly reached marriageable age. What plans do they have for their next generation? Eric, Andy and Junjin said they would like to have a daughter and a son each. Hyesung said he will know only when it's the right time. Minwoo said he wanted 6 sons to form Shinhwa Junior, and Dongwan said he wanted 3 daughters so that he could form S.E.S.
Episode IV: Do the members know about the couples in fan fiction?
The pairing up of members in fan fiction are well known among the fans. Shinhwa members were all very interested in this, and even listed the couples - MinSyung, RicJin, WanDy - terms that the fans are all familiar with.
Episode V: Please find my shoe
Standing alone under the spotlight, Minwoo performed his dance too vigorously, and ended up kicking his shoe into the crowd. He only realised that he lost his shoe after the dance. But as he had to rejoin the members to carry on the performance, the audience passed the flyaway shoe one by one until it reached him, safely back on the stage.
Episode VI: Repaying the love of the fans
The fans who filled up the entire arena all shouted "Saranghaeyo" at the top of their lungs. When Minwoo asked, "How should we repay your love then?" The audience replied, "Strip!"
Hyesung become the unfortunate victim as the mischievous members all pounced on him and attempted to strip him. He ran to the side of the stage, only to get caught once again.
Episode VII: A funny and touching MV
The MV for 'RUN', from their 9th album shot in February, was unveiled for the first time at the concert. Completely transformed into Mexican mobsters, the audience all cheered loudly as each member appeared on the screen. The highlight of the MV was where Eric, the hostage, had his handcuffs blown off by Minwoo. He then caught the gun that the members tossed to him and killed off the bad guys, ending the plot. At the end of the MV, Eric said in a voiceover, "Thank you for walking through the past 10 years with us", drawing thunderous cheers from the fans.
Episode VIII: The stars who attended the Shinhwa concert
Many stars turned up to show their support for Shinhwa's 10th anniversary concert, including Lyn and Battle, from their same agency, as well as the ladies of "Global Talk" and K1 fighter Choi Hong Man.
A perfect transformation into a Mexican mob!
On location of the MV filmsite
Is this really Shinhwa? Shinhwa becomes a Mexican mob for their title track on the 9th album, 'RUN'. We were at the filmsite to catch a glimpse of the Latin-styled Shinhwa.
