I’m not sure if there are still any of those places in Korea these days… From what I’ve read, colatheques seem to be a 90s/early 2000s phenomenon and many of them have been converted into dancing halls for senior citizens these days…
=======================================================
Currently promoting his latest album ‘Minnovation’, Lee Minwoo appeared on the 18th July episode on KBS2’s Star Golden Bell, and shared an interesting incident during Shinhwa’s early days, where they bumped into the S.E.S members at a colatheque.
Replying to the question of “Has Shinhwa ever broken rules set by the management company?”, Lee Minwoo said, “During the holidays, we told the company that we were going back to our hometowns, but instead the members arranged to meet at the Gangnam subway station. On the way there, we actually bumped into our dance choreography teacher. We were really shocked, but we lied and said that we gathered together to work on our teamwork.”
“In the end, we all went to the colatheque with our teacher, where we met some familiar faces, the S.E.S members. We all said to each other, let’s show off our skills, and we performed the dances that we had been practising.”
When asked, “Did the members compete to look better than one another?”, he answered, “There was once during a concert, Junjin took off his jacket halfway and the fans were all cheering really loudly for him. So I just ripped my tank top apart so that the fans would cheer for me too.”
