10.08.14 [MagPics] Shin Hyesung ~ Man Like Him





Excerpts from the interview:


Singer Hyesung:

Having debuted as lead vocalist of SHINHWA for more than 12 years, Hyesung stays in Korean entertainment business as singer, whether singing by himself or in his group. He doesn’t shoot up fame fast but he keeps up in a good pace. When asked what he thinks he would be if not a singer, he thought for a while and said ‘I’ve always wanted to be a singer since I was little and after so many years, I’ve never thought of other alternatives.”. In previous years, he held many large sized concerts but this time he had small fanmeeting since he wants to be closer with his fans.

Lee min woo once said ‘Hyesung told me to tell everyone that he’s the best dancer in SHINHWA.’ Even though, Junjin has more power and sex appeal, Eric’s more skilled dance moves and Minwoo’s technique, Hyesung’s dance skills might be more mediocre but his moves such as his crab dance is cute and popular among fans. When asked about his dancing skills, Hyesung is confident and said he was okay in dancing in SHINHWA, but now that he’s older and isn’t as good as before, he grades himself 50% but Kim Dongwan only gets 49%!! (Poor wannie)

Otaku Hyesung

* Note: Otaku is a japanese word refer to the one who are obssessed with one thing such as comics or games

Hyesung likes to play video games and he’s quite good at it and he’s an otaku who likes to stay at home and play games. He’s also good at cooking and he had won the title of ‘master of cooking’ in a korean TV show. But when asked whether he cooks at home since he stays at home so often he says he doesn’t because he doesn’t like to wash the dishes.

Soccer fans Hyesung:

World cup is a national holiday for all men, and Hyesung is no exception. He showed his love for football in many TV shows and in many footages and reports on SHINHWA, he had been seen playing around on football fields. “The last world cup hosted by Germay was right around when SHINHWA released their 8th album(State of art) and SHINHWA members concentrated on cheering for KOREA. This time I watched all the world cup games, the first match I saw with Eric, Junjin and Minwoo but after that I didn’t feel too well so I watched all the othermatches at home by myself ” says Hyesung. Even when asked repeatedly, he refuses to answer what team he cheers for other than Korea, and says “If I cheer for teams other than Korea, all Koreans will scold me!”
