Currently promoting his 4th solo album M RIZING, Lee Minwoo revealed on a TV show that Shinhwa leader Eric once gave up his own earnings to split among the other members.
On the 20th Nov episode of cable channel tvN's Taxi, Lee Minwoo will share some interesting behind-the-scene stories of the Shinhwa members, as well as their recent activities.
Lee Minwoo said, "Eric split his earnings among the other 5 members, and the amount didn't really matter to us, it was his good intentions. When there are conflicts between the members, Eric always lives up to his role as the leader to unite everyone so that Shinhwa could continue on."
Making his comeback after 1 year and 3 months, Lee Minwoo said, "The album was made with my passion, and I produced the songs according to the ideas I had for the stage performances. I put in a lot of effort to make it even more polished."
He also shared an interesting pre-debut anecdote, he said, "Junjin's real name is Park Choong Jae, and before he came up with Junjin, he was actually called Yigigo (winner), and Kim Dongwan preferred something more foreign-sounding and artistic names like Kim Ato or Kim Atom. I shortlisted names like Parang (wave or blue) and Taeyang (sun)."
He also shared for the first time about how he was approached to go solo before Shinhwa's debut. "Just before our debut, Mr Lee Soo Man asked me if I preferred to go with a group or to go solo. By then I had already become accustomed to life with the other members, and there was just too much pressure to be a solo act instead, so I rejected the idea."
This episode will be aired on tvN on 20th Nov at 12pm.
