[08.03.27][Article]A Taste of Celebrity-Owned Restaurants in Seoul
By Cathy Rose A. Garcia, Han Sang-hee
Staff Reporters
In celebrity-crazed Korea, stars can hawk everything from ramyeon to cell phones to vitamin drinks. So it is no wonder that some celebrities have started their own businesses such as clothing brands and restaurants, using ``star power'' for their own benefit.
Hallyu superstar Bae Yong-joon, K-pop group Shinhwa, singer Kim Jong-min and actors Lee Jung-jae and Hong Suk-chun are some of the celebrities who have entered the restaurant business.
Some of these stars generate hype for their restaurants by placing their names and photos prominently inside the restaurant. Others play down the star factor and concentrate on the quality of the food and service.
The Korea Times takes a look at some of the celebrity-owned restaurants.
[Non-Shinhwa related news omitted]
K-pop & Food
Korean pop group Shinhwa endorsed the fried chicken chain Kyochon a few years ago, and ended up opening a Kyochon chicken franchise restaurant in Rodeo Street in Apgujeong, southern Seoul.
The restaurant is quite small, and decorated with autographed posters of Shinhwa members and even their framed handprints on the walls.
There is not much variety on the menu, which includes the Kyochon original chicken (8,000 won for small, 15,000 won for big servings), French fries, salad and cheese sticks. There is even ``Shinhwa chicken,'' which is a very spicy version of the original Kyochon chicken. Because of Shinhwa's popularity around Asia, it is no surprise there are always some foreign fans dining at the restaurant.
Angel Mahinay, a 23-year old fan from the Philippines, said that she already knew about Kyochon chicken from watching the Shinhwa commercials on the Internet.
While visiting Seoul last week, Mahinay and her friend checked out the Shinhwa restaurant to try the chicken. "I saw the Kyochon chicken commercial and I really wanted to eat the yummy chicken. Now that I have tried it, I can say the chicken is really as good as it looked on the commercial,'' she said.
To get there, leave exit 2 of Apgujeong station, Line 3 and walk towards the direction of the Galleria Department Store. After around 700 meters, turn right at the Hana Bank, walk a few meters and you'll find the Shinhwa Kyochon Chicken restaurant on your right.

[08.03.26][news] Shinhwa's secret to their 10 years together
H.O.T were active for 5 years, and though Shinhwa made their debut 2 years after H.O.T did, they have already gone on to celebrate their 10th anniversary this year, and will be holding their 10th anniversary concert on 29 & 30 March.
Shinhwa made their debut in 1998 under SM Entertainment, the same company that managed H.O.T, and Shinhwa was content to be No.2 then. Moreover, their path to success was also obstructed by Sechskies, a key competitor of H.O.T.
There were also other idol groups under SM that came and went, but Shinhwa did not disband like H.O.T did, neither did they put a stop to their group activities like G.O.D did, and in fact conquered all obstacles that most idol groups face.
The first reason behind Shinhwa's longevity as a group is their change of management company. After their contract with SM ended in June 2006, they signed on to GoodEMG, which gave them a newfound confidence. In SM, Shinhwa was just one of the many idol groups that was under the company, but to GoodEMG, Shinhwa is their everything.
Another reason is Shinhwa's strategy of "apart but together", similar to that of top Japanese group SMAP. When SMAP first made their debut, their results were less than satisfactory too, but their impressive performances on variety shows helped them to gain a lot of popularity.
Similarly, after the release of their 7th album Brand New, the 6 members of Shinhwa also strengthened their approachable images through variety shows such as Love Letter and Xman.
The splendidly-choreographed Brand New managed to sell a whopping 325,000 copies and was an overwhelming success with the audience. If it wasn't for the declining state of the music industry, industry experts were saying that sales might well have exceeded 1 million copies. That year, they won the Seoul Gayo Daesang for the first time in their 7 years together, and all 6 members were moved to tears. It was also after this that their solo activities began to take off.
Eric and Kim Dongwan took up acting, to great success - Eric through Bulsae and Dongwan through Goodbye Sadness. Eric even went on to become a highly valued CF star. At the same time, Lee Minwoo and Shin Hyesung became solo artistes, and their solo activities help to keep Shinhwa in the limelight.
Shinhwa didn't burst onto the scene to great success, but instead took a long and winding course of 7 years before they reached their peak. They faced disbandment crises and other situations in the 7 years, but their unity grew amidst these obstacles, and the bonds between the members gradually grew to that of brothers.
However, the lessened group activities have had its bad points as well. Their 8th album State Of The Art, released in 2006, had reviews that said that it seemed like a project album more than something that they had injected effort into.
Since 2005, the members have been occupied with individual activities as well as the Shinhwa concert tour and solo concerts. Facing brand new challenges such as these, Shinhwa members are still able to regroup the moment they shout "Urineun Shinhwa imnida (We are Shinhwa)".
Members Kim Dongwan, Eric, Lee Minwoo, Junjin and Andy are all due to enlist for the army, which implies that the next reunion will take another 3-4 years. Thus 2008 is an especially meaningful year for Shinhwa.

[08.03.26][news] Eric: 30 million won per episode?
Shinhwa member Eric returns to TV as the highest-paid singer-turned-actor.
In the new KBS2 series that is scheduled for broadcast from June, Choi Gang Chil Woo (working title / produced by Park Man Young), Eric is expected to receive 30 million won per episode. If the ratings are higher than expected or if the rights to the drama are sold to other territories, his fees will further increase.
Eric is apparently the highest paid singer-turned-actor in the industry. Korea's highest-paid actor Bae Yong Joon reportedly received 2 billion won per episode for MBC drama The Legend, and thus making a cool 50 billion won for the whole series.
The reason for Eric's high fees is his status as a Hallyu star. As a member of Shinhwa, Eric is a star in Japan and he's also well known as an actor there through his dramas such as "Bulsae" and "Super Rookie". The reason for the production team behind "Choi Gang Chil Woo" choosing a Hallyu star for this project is exactly this - there are special plans for the drama to be aired in Japan.
If the plans for Japan proceed, Eric will receive royalties from the Japan activities as well. A KBS spokesperson said, "Choi Gang Chil Woo is the biggest project for KBS this summer. We're looking forward to attracting overseas acquisitions for the drama with Eric as the selling point."
"Choi Gang Chil Woo" is a 20-episode sageuk drama.

[08.03.25][trans] Lee Minwoo Even Gives Up Performances! What Does He Plan to Do...
Singer Lee Minwoo gives his all for Shinhwa's 10th year anniversary activities.
To fully prepare for group Shinhwa's 10th year celebration concert, to be held on the 29th and 30th at the Gymnasium in Seoul Olympic Park, Lee Minwoo gave up his previously scheduled individual activities.
A representative from Lee Minwoo's management company OPENWORLD ENTERTAINMENT said, "Concerning the recently released MINI album, Lee Minwoo barely went through a promotional period. To prepare for Shinhwa's 10th year concert, he canceled broadcast activities previously scheduled for the 21st and 23rd, and is currently dedicating all his efforts into preparing (for the album and concert)”
Lee Minwoo is composing for four songs, one of which includes the title track (name yet to be determined), to be included on Shinhwa's 9th album celebrating their 10th year debut. Lee Minwoo is also spending a lot of time on dance choreography, in preparation for the upcoming public performances in front of the fans. With all this, naturally the situation arises in which the only possible solution is to cut back on his own personal activities.
Lee Minwoo's company expressed, "Because this will be the last set of activities before Eric, Kim Dongwan and other members will have to enlist, Minwoo felt that the concert stage this time seemed particularly special. While partaking in directorial roles of the album and concert, he is also giving his support to the other members."

[08.03.25][news] Eric's return to TV before army enlistment
Shinhwa member Eric (Mun Jung Hyuk, 29) will be displaying his acting skills for the last time before he enlists into the army.
The KBS2 drama, 최강칠우 (Choi Gang Chil Woo / Strongest Chil Woo - working title) from 9 June onwards, every Monday and Tuesday at 9.55pm. Scripted by Baek Yoon Chul and produced by Park Man Young, the drama will star Eric as the male lead character Kang Chil Woo (working name).
"Strongest Chil Woo" is KBS's latest sageuk drama after "Hong Gil Dong". Eric will play a lowly officer in a 의금부 (eui geum bu) (a court that handles crimes of treason) in the Joseon era, nondescript, not very smart and whose lifelong ambition is to become a mid-level officer. However when night falls, he transforms into the top assassin in an assassination organization, who metes out punishment to evildoers and gives justice where needed. This challenging role will see him play out a man with two vastly different characters.
The court, the equivalent of the modern-day police department in the Joseon era, will be the setting for the drama, and the sageuk drama will feature action scenes with assassins with various secrets.
After starring in MBC's "Que Sera Sera" last May, Eric has been busy with Shinhwa's overseas activities. This will be the last drama project before he enlists into the army.
Eric, unlike the other members, hasn't had any solo album activities beside Shinhwa group activities.
Shinhwa's 9th album is due to be released very soon, and when interviewed Eric sad, "I took a long break because my health condition wasn't that good. Now I'm in my peak condition."
Eric's management company Top Class Entertainment expressed, "Eric can't really relate himself to a sageuk drama, but as the script is very interesting, he decided on it as his next project. After a year's break, he's now in the pink of health. This drama is expected to end in mid-August and he's scheduled to enlist in September".

Shinhwa's Andy disclosed on a variety show that he invested in his own solo album.
On the 24th March broadcast of MBC's Jipijiki, Andy said, "My management company asked me to lose weight, so I lost about 8kg. But after all that effort, we realised that I didn't look good so I had to put the weight back on. So now I've got a bit of the weight back."
At this moment the other guests asked, "Why are you so obedient to the agency? Have you always been this obedient?" To which he candidly answered, "Ever since I released my solo album I've been very obedient to the agency."
Later on the show, MC Park Myung Soo commented, "The music industry hasn't been doing well, and you released your album now. I heard that there's a lack of investors too."
Andy then disclosed, "I invested in the album myself."
In response to Andy's honest reply, Park Myung Soo then said jokingly, "If you invested, then why do you need to listen to your agency?" Andy then said to the amusement of the audience, "I have no choice because I have a stake in the company".

On the 24th March broadcast of Jipijiki, Andy shared his pain during the time he was unable to join the rest of Shinhwa in their activities, touching the hearts of all present.
Andy said, "After I came back from the US, I stayed in a koshiwon (dormitory)", revealing the hard times behind the seemingly glamorous lives of idol singers.
He continued, "I had to go back to the US because my parents were not feeling well", revealing the reason for his temporary departure. "When I came back from the US, I didn't have a place to stay so I had to stay with a hyung at the koshiwon. After a year's absence I was afraid of going about life alone and I wasn't sure if I could carry on", surprising the guests who were present.
The reason behind Andy's return to the group was the true friendship among the members. Andy was watching at the koshiwon as the members were holding the Guerilla concert, where Minwoo said "If only Andy could be with us. Andy, we'll be together forever." Andy said that he started to cry when he saw that.
Describing his thoughts at that time, he said "Because I was at the koshiwon, I had to keep quiet, so I stuffed my face into the pillow and just cried."
The guests all couldn't contain their surprise, and were moved by the friendship between the members.

[08.03.24][trans] 10th anniversary thoughts: Why Shinhwa is a legend
Wearing oversized costumes and sporting long fringes, earnestly performing Hae Gyul Sah. The 23-year-old fans then have also turned 29 or 30 by now. During this whole time, Shinhwa has functioned as a group, and also individually through members' activities in solo albums and dramas.
Due to release their 9th album next month, Shinhwa has had a long history with Sports Donga, as Sports Donga's first issue was also released on March 24. Since March 24 1998 when Shinhwa first made their debut, 10 years have already passed. On one hand, they have helped pop culture to flourish and left an indelible mark on pop history, and on the other hand they have managed to maintain their popularity and hold on firmly to their position of the national stars of Korea.
Once Shinhwa, Forever Shinhwa
"It's fate to share the same birthday, we hope that you can continue with Shinhwa in the future."
We met up with Shinhwa who were filming their MV at Jebu-do, Hwaseong in Gyeonggi-do, and they greeted us with the statement above when we started our interview.
"Although Sports Donga reports are often simple, but it's very detailed." - Lee Minwoo
"Though we also met with a setback the very first time, we still managed to get through 10 years. It's the same for Sports Donga I think, your first issue must have been difficult but you've pulled through." - Shin Hyesung
"We hope to still perform on stage when we're 50 or 60, all the members do. We hope Sports Donga can grow with Shinhwa." - Junjin
Failure of 1st Album, Disbandment Worries
The path of success didn't run smooth for Shinhwa in the last 10 years. After the failure of their first album, they faced the possibility of disbandment. And Andy's departure during the 4th album left many fans in agony. Disbandment worries once again surfaced due to a change in management agency and contract renewal issues.
Kim Dongwan recently disclosed on a program that, "Eric rejected very high solo contract offers to ensure that the group stayed intact."
To this Eric replied, "My choice wasn't a sacrifice, it was the best decision I've made in my life."
FREQUENT FIGHTS
Most idol groups don't last long. Then what is the secret behind their longevity as a group? Shinhwa responded with "loyalty and brotherly love".
Shin Hyesung said, "Now we share an understanding like that of brothers. Although there are times that we fight and argue, but they only serve to strengthen our bonds."
Eric added, "If there isn't trust between the members, it's not possible to be able to stand on the same stage for 10 years."
Famous for being straightforward with reporters, Kim Dongwan said, "The loyalty between the members is very important. We all know that Shinhwa's power is much stronger than our individual strength."
Pre-Enlistment Confession..Reunion 4 Years Later
To Shinhwa, 2008 is a meaningful year not only because it's the year of their 10th anniversary, but it also signifies the beginning of the future. The members who will experience the biggest change in their lives will be Kim Dongwan, Eric and Lee Minwoo, as they will be enlisting into the army this year. Junjin and Andy are also due to enlist in 2009 and 2010 respectively. This means that it will take at least 4 years before the members can reunite as a group.
But Shinhwa members all agree that "there's no such thing as Shinhwa disbanding". Lee Minwoo said, "Our members will grab whatever opportunities that come along that will allow us to regroup. Junjin added that "When the members reunite 3 or 4 years later, it should feel like meeting our first loves." From what they say, we should be expecting a 10th album to come from Shinhwa.
Resolving Conflicts
Shinhwa's advice to the younger groups - "To be able to stay together for as long as we have, you have to be able to resolve disgreements between members as quickly as possible." Shin Hyesung said, "Most of the time when groups disband it's due to conflicts between members. After all everyone grew up in a different environment, and everyone has different values. We fight too, but we will resolve our disagreements immediately."
Kim Dongwan emphasized the importance of group unity, "You need to think as though you'll be living together for life. Once you notice that you have different points of view, you won't be able to breathe and grow together."

Andy's caption - My back hurts... Can't I sit to do recording?
An-gun who is down with a bad cold
Walked into the recording studio, with a runny nose
"Ah... My voice can't come out, how now?"
He was blowing his nose throughout the entire recording
And kept shouting "Ok recording GO GO GO"
Ah... But the recording took very long,
His back was hurting.

[08.03.24][news] Shinhwa's 10th Anniversary: Time for the last concert
Sharing 10 years of friendship together, the 6 members of Shinhwa will be celebrating their 10th anniversary on March 24. They said that the motivation that has pushed them on for such a long time is "our trust in each other".
As the longest-running group in Korea, they will be holding their 10th anniversary concert at Seoul Olympic Park on 29 and 30 March. As members Eric and Kim Dongwan are due to enlist in the army this year, this will be the last time the members will be holding a concert and releasing an album under the name of "Shinhwa" in the near future. After the release of the 9th album in early April, all group activities will be put on hold.
"It feels terrible having to send the hyungs off first. Maybe my tears will just gush out during the concert." - Junjin
"Luckily it's not an incomplete number like 8 or 9, but a complete 10. I'm kidding (laughs). Being able to spend the past 10 years under the name of 'Shinhwa', I think it has been the happiest time of my life. We can't go back to our precious memories now, but maybe it will still be the same from now onwards." - Eric
Shinhwa members were filming their MV near the fossil site at Hwaseong in Gyeonggi-do. And in order to get into character, their fake handguns were also equipped with fake bullets. Although they all had the poise, but their faces all wore the excitement of kindergarten kids as they played around with the fake guns. The plot of the MV involved Shin Hyesung, Junjin, Andy, Lee Minwoo and Kim Dongwan having to rescue Eric who had been kidnapped by a rival gang.
"Isn't my hairstyle the same as my dad's (Charlie Park)?" Junjin joked as he did the Rimario dance (the dance that Andy used to do on Love Letter). Hyesung was nearby looking at the mirror wearing his fake moustance. Lee Minwoo flashed his bronzed chest muscles, while Andy was pretending to shoot wearing a bright yellow shirt. Eric attempted to greet the Uzbekistan extras with the Spanish he learnt in high school, but was embarrassed when they replied fluently in Korean, "Hyung please speak Korean."
Although Shinhwa's group activities will stop for now, but members will all be busy with their own solo projects. Kim Dongwan and Junjin will release their 2nd albums respectively, while Lee Minwoo will be holding his solo concert in the US and in Shanghai. Eric will act in a drama before he enlists into the army, Andy will also feature in a drama after he finishes his promotions for his first album, while Shin Hyesung is scheduled to release his 3rd solo album in June.
So what do they think of the next 10 years? Shin Hyesung said, "We'll be married and even when everyone becomes ahjusshis I'll still remember Shinhwa forever. Although everything will change, but all the memories and experiences we had as Shinhwa, that's probably the best thing in the world to us."

[08.03.24][news] Kim Dongwan's solo videoconference in Japan
Singer Kim Dongwan (29) held a successful solo video conference in Japan late last week.
Holding his videoconference in Harajuku Astro Hall, though Dongwan himself wasn't present personally, there were still more than 200 fans who gathered to catch a glimpse of him via the video conference, a clear display of his popularity.
This video conference is specially for the Japanese fans who have been waiting for Dongwan's 2nd album, and scenes from his last Japan fanmeeting, of him recording his 2nd album and also scenes from his everyday life were shown to the fans.
Through his video messages, Kim Dongwan expressed his regret at not being able to attend the event in person, "I should be there, but I can't make it due to my packed schedule. I've prepared the video in replacement of me, and Shinhwa's album and my 2nd album is about to be released, hope everyone will love it."
Dongwan is now busy with his preparations for the upcoming Shinhwa album, as well as his 2nd album. He is always busy practising for Shinhwa's 10th anniversary concert which will be held on 29/30 March.

[08.03.23][trans] 10th Anniv Site Production Note: Band Practice
Band Practice
Before the members meet up with the band to practise..
The band members have already practised twice or thrice.
It's almost the same people who have been working with Shinhwa and M hyung for the last 3 years
Now they can already play Shinhwa's songs with their eyes closed..ㅋㅋ
The youngest band member, the one who is singing backup vocals...
Is singing in place of the members...
He's good at imitating the members' voices while they are singing..
Maybe it's because he's been working with them for so long, so he's gotten really good at it~~
rap...he does it exactly the same way as the Shinhwa members
So he had us all laughing in fits...what a great kid!!
The mission for the band today!!
To rearrange the songs into rock versions!!
The band members are playing a rock rhythm... relaxedly playing out a completely different feeling.
I Dr. Hong and Mr Lego from the music team are very happy with it
I wonder what Shinhwa will think of it! We'll have to wait for the members to join in the practice.. ^^&
And...what song is this...
See it during the concert then~~~

[08.03.23][news] Andy gets embarrassed, "He's a singer?"
Shinhwa's youngest member Andy (27) who has just released his first solo album suffered some little insults on MBC's children program Deskmates of Imagination, and could only laugh in amusement.
The program is hosted by Kim Jae Dong, Oh Sang Jin and Park Sang Hyuk, where popular celebrities are seated at the same desk with Primary One children to answer questions, and is broadcast every Sunday at 9.30am. On the March 23rd episode, Seung Woo Yeong Nyeo, Andy, Ha Dong Gyu, Lee Kwang Gi and Jo Hae Ryun were among the guests on the show.
The first hit happened for Andy when veteran actress Seung Woo Yeong Nyeo whispered to Kim Jae Dong and asked, "Is he a singer?". After she realised that the scene was broadcast, she laughed in embarrassment as Kim Jae Dong shared the story with the rest of the guests.
After this, during the vote of popularity among the children between Ha Dong Gyu and Andy, Andy suffered his next setback. When asked how he thought he would fare in the voting Andy said, "I hope there will be at least one vote", and when Kim Jae Dong added "I believe there should be at least 2 to 3 votes", Andy gave a little confident smile. However Ha Dong Gyu beat Andy by 2 votes to nil.
Andy recently released his solo album and have been participating actively on variety shows. He had just appeared on MBC's "We're Married", playing a newlywed couple with Solbi and had received the accolade of "Wanso Nam" (a man that should be treasured), but unexpectedly suffered a shock at the hands of the children on this program.

[08.03.21][trans] We Are Shinhwa
Softly counting "one, two, three", then stretching one arm and then shouting "Annyeong haseyo, urineun Shinhwa imnida! (Hello, we are Shinhwa!)" Just like this, they have spent 10 years together.
In the past they would carefully rehearse their introductions, seriously saying "I'm English rapper Andy", now Andy would jokingly introduce himself "I'm Cute Guy Andy". Even with the passage of time, Shinhwa is still Shinhwa. There are still the 6 of them, Eric's still the leader, Shin Hyesung is still the main vocalist. It's hard to find any idol group even in the US and Japan where there hasn't been any change of members.
However, the reason why Shinhwa's 10th anniversary is attracting so much attention isn't just because they've been around for so long. Perhaps there will never be another group that will live through one whole pop era. This doesn't have that much to do with how popular they are or how good their music is. Shinhwa's stronghold is not so much in music, but rather entertainment, they are more of idols than singers.
10 Years of Shinhwa, 10 Years of Fans
Of course H.O.T was earlier than them. But since 2001 when H.O.T disbanded, Shinhwa has been the idol group that has set the benchmark for idol group culture for the 21st century. They are the first idol group to be able to achieve success as a group and individually. They unabashedly share their off-camera anecdotes on variety shows and bring laughter to even viewers who are not fans. Before them, there hasn't been any idol group who would reveal pictures of themselves in pyjamas or playing around in their dormitory, and there hasn't been any idol group members like Eric or Kim Dongwan who would state their point of views via their websites.
Everything that Shinhwa members have done serves only to benefit idol groups in general, and ever since then, many entertainment companies followed suit. Solo activities are part and parcel of all idol groups now, and management companies would reveal their personal photos even before they debut, attempting to narrow the distance between the group and the fans. Super Junior, now under SM Entertainment who first discovered Shinhwa, introduces themselves with "Urineun Super Junior-ieyo". Terms like 5-1=0 and 6-1=0, which fans use to oppose change of members, are also common now. Shinhwa, who began as an idol group of charismatic oppas, to today when fans are able to acknowledge the fact that there will be a day when they will have to split - they have already spent 10 years together.
Thus, Shinhwa and their fans have a relationship that are different from other groups. They made their debut wearing distinctive costumes with distinctive hairstyles, complete with a distinctive dance, singing Hae Gyul Sah. From then until the time when they sang "Once In A Lifetime" with a sophisticated image, Shinhwa fans have witnessed their whole growing-up process. During the whole time when Shinhwa turned from "idols losing their baby fat" to "handsome oppas", becoming oppas that made the fans love and hate at the same time. Shinhwa fans witnessed their successes, as well as failures, and amidst the highs and lows of the group, the fans have become an entity of its own. They loved, and hated, Shinhwa, and even if they didn't like Shinhwa as much as before they would still be affected by Shinhwa one way or another. They would still use terms like "Minsyung", "Mama Bird", and they would still have friends in the Shinhwa fan community. If they attended the concerts, they would meet the fans with whom have spent countless hours chatting about Shinhwa.
Idols with Evil Music and Dance Moves

If they attended the concerts, they would meet the fans with whom have spent countless hours chatting about Shinhwa.
Idols with Evil Music and Dance Moves
Shinhwa is always willing to make a joke out of their own fabulous dance moves, turning their dances into spoofs and comic gags, and they are able to adapt to variety shows more easily and more quickly than any other group.
But it's a contradictory relationship between Shinhwa and their fans, that's because Shinhwa is an "evil" group. Shinhwa has never sold more than 1 million copies like H.O.T or G.O.D. If H.O.T has "Candy" and G.O.D has "Lies", Shinhwa doesn't have that one song that could let non-fans sing along easily. Their main tracks are always dance songs with quick beats and powerful rhythms, even when T.O.P was released, the complicated dance was incredibly hard to follow.
Here, member Lee Minwoo's influence on Shinhwa's music and dance is very extensive, and it's Minwoo's personal preferences that makes Shinhwa a more "extreme" group. His own solo work "Bump" is good evidence of that. He likes to use strong but controlled beats in his music, and his dance moves aren't only powerful but require a lot of technique and details in the smaller moves as well.
Just like the complicated dance moves in Justin Timberlake's "Like I Love You", Shinhwa similarly used difficult-to-follow moves in "Wedding". "Brand New" featured more than 20 people on one stage with various formations. If one wants to like Shinhwa, she needs to be able to appreciate the adrenaline brought forth by "Wedding", and she needs to feel the spectacularity of the complicated dance choreography in "Wild Eyes". Thus, for fans who are already stuck in Shinhwa's world, chances are that they just get more and more entrenched. But for non-fans, Shinhwa is a group that is hard to relate to.
Although They Have Done Everything An Idol Group Can Do, They Are Still Idols

Although They Have Done Everything An Idol Group Can Do, They Are Still Idols
The 7th album which they realised after they signed with a new company held extraordinary meaning for them. Shinhwa never used the strategy of staying away from fans and the public. They continuously work on getting closer to the fans, and though their fandom didn't expand overnight, it grew steadily and consistently throughout. This is the result of entering the threshold of public acceptance. Though "Brand New" is still a trademark Shinhwa dance song, but it was this song that won Shinhwa its first Daesang.
Fans give Shinhwa the nickname of "gag group", and their individual versatility on variety shows is known to everyone. The nature of the group is as such - the way group activities and individual activities complement each other - that is something that Shinhwa does particularly well, and in a sense Shinhwa can be considered as the most successful group evern. Of course in terms of a meteoric rise in popularity over a short period of time, there hasn't been any group that can surpass Seo Taiji & The Boys and H.O.T. But Shinhwa are still idols in an idol group, or even more than that. There are members who have gained recognition as actors, while others have written for other singers and are acknowledged as prominent songwriters. But at the end of the day, they're still idols, they're still Shinhwa.

But at the end of the day, they're still idols, they're still Shinhwa.
A New Era Where No Korean Idol Group Can Surpass Their Achievements
They have spent their entire 20s as idols, and are everything from idol singers to multi-entertainers. The unique thing about Shinhwa is how they are still considered as an idol group when they are consequetively stepping into their 30s, and how their group activities go hand-in-hand with their individual activities. Members who have embarked on individual careers have had a huge push from the Shinhwa brand, and in return their individual careers have further strengthened the Shinhwa brand. But gradually members started to spend more time on their solo careers, and for their 8th album they only had a short promotional period for it, after which there has been almost no group activities in Korea. During this time, members have been acting in dramas or releasing solo albums. Away from the Shinhwa name, Eric can now be considered as the actor Mun Jung Hyuk.
Perhaps the "one and only idol group" SMAP from Japan is the kind of group they'd like to become, but unlike SMAP, they don't have their own variety show where they can get together every week. The poor state of the music industry also doesn't give them too many opportunities to perform together.
If during the SM days, Shinhwa was a group created by the company, then after the switch of companies, Shinhwa is the collective name used by 6 idols. Now the members are all signed to different companies, and everytime they get together it seems like a confirmation of their sense of belonging to each other. Although Shinhwa and their fan community are still active, but the sense of belonging to Shinhwa still remains even as they go about their individual activities.
Now they are about to enlist into the army one after another. For the past 10 years, they have been shouting "Urineun Shinhwa imnida (We are Shinhwa)". Can this line last through 15 or 20 years? At a time where Korean idol groups come and go, they are a legend. And possibly no Korean idol group can ever surpass what they have achieved.

08.03.20][trans] Shinhwa: From the bottom to No. 1
The coming 24 March, to the Korean pop industry, will be remembered as a "happy day", beacuse there's an idol group - with no change of member through the years - who will be celebrating their 10th anniversary on that day.
As an idol group, while they enjoy massive popularity with the masses, becoming a long-running group is extremely difficult as well. Most idol groups that were popular with fans and media in the late 90s have either undergone changes in member lineup or have already disbanded.
But there is one group that has bucked the trend - Eric, Shin Hyesung, Lee Minwoo, Kim Dongwan, Junjin and Andy - they are Shinhwa.
Having made their debut on 24 March 1998 on KMTV's "Show! Music Tank", Shinhwa has gone through failures, setbacks and success in the past 10 years. The members have already reached their 30s unknowingly. Let's take a walk down memory lane, and share the past 10 years with Shinhwa who has been through tears and laughter with the Shinhwa Changjo fanclub.
▶Shinhwa, a successful but difficult 10-year period
The 1979-ers - Eric (Mun Jung Hyuk), Shin Hyesung (Jung Pilkyo), Kim Dongwan, Lee Minwoo - together with 1980-born Junjin (Park Choongjae) and 1981-born Andy (Lee Seon Ho) are the members who form Shinhwa. In 1998, they belonged under SM Entertainment, who also managed H.O.T, Sechskies and other popular idol groups. They took their first step into the gayo world at a time when these groups had already a huge headstart in the music scene.
At the same time, Shinhwa realised that the gayo world was not a place where they could do as they pleased. They were given a harsh dose of reality when their first album, which included songs like Hae Gyul Sah and Eusha Eusha (songs that they still perform at their concerts), did not do as well as expected.
But Shinhwa members persevered. After the failure of the first album, they told themselves, "If the 2nd album fails too, we'll quit the business". Bearing that in mind, they put in even more effort into vocal and dance practice, and it paid off well. The main track from their 2nd album T.O.P was a hit, and they rose up the ranks to become the next idol group to watch out for.
However, the 3rd album in 2000, the 4th album in 2001, the 5th and 6th albums in 2003 - which churned out hits like "Hey Come On", "Perfect Man", "Wedding" - still didn't launch them into idol group superstardom to become the No. 1 idol group, as they still had groups like H.O.T and G.O.D to contend with.
Through their solo activities, Eric and Dongwan gained recognition as actors, while Junjin, Minwoo, Hyesung, Andy proved themselves as multi-entertainers on different variety shows. After they've all gained more popularity for themselves, they released their 7th album in the summer of 2004, and finally reached the summit of the gayo world.
"Brand New", "Shooting Star", "Oh!", "Angel", "Crazy" from the 7th album all became hits, and with that Shinhwa won the Daesang at the 2004 SBS Gayo Awards - the unforgettable and emotional moment when they hugged in tears, holding the precious award.
After this, members Eric, Dongwan, Minwoo, Junjin and Andy delved further into the world of acting, as well as musicals, while Hyesung, Dongwan, Minwoo, Junjin and Andy went on to release their solo albums, in their own preferred musical styles and genres. As solo artists they continued to enjoy popularity in their own right.
Shinhwa continues to dominate the gayo world with the strategy of "independent yet united", which has proven to be more effective and efficient than any other group. The power of each individual member, together with the combined strength of the Shinhwa group, seems to produce the effect of "1+1>2", and with that they are recognized as representatives of the Hallyu wave.
In the midst of their rising popularity, each member has had his fair share of scandals with other female celebrities, and there were also times when the members have also had to make public apologies on their official fansite. But whenever they meet with situations like this, Shinhwa would always stand up after the fall. The strong bonds of friendship among the 6 Shinhwa members play a very large part in this.
Just like what the members have said before, "Being guys we had our share of fights when we were younger, but we'd resolve it soon after. But it's because of things like this that we've become as close as brothers. The members exist only because Shinhwa exists. To each other, we can't exist separately."
▶The Story of Shinhwa continues
As an idol group, while they enjoy massive popularity with the masses, becoming a long-running group is extremely difficult as well. Most idol groups that were popular with fans and media in the late 90s have either undergone changes in member lineup or have already disbanded.
But there is one group that has bucked the trend - Eric, Shin Hyesung, Lee Minwoo, Kim Dongwan, Junjin and Andy - they are Shinhwa.
Having made their debut on 24 March 1998 on KMTV's "Show! Music Tank", Shinhwa has gone through failures, setbacks and success in the past 10 years. The members have already reached their 30s unknowingly. Let's take a walk down memory lane, and share the past 10 years with Shinhwa who has been through tears and laughter with the Shinhwa Changjo fanclub.
▶Shinhwa, a successful but difficult 10-year period
The 1979-ers - Eric (Mun Jung Hyuk), Shin Hyesung (Jung Pilkyo), Kim Dongwan, Lee Minwoo - together with 1980-born Junjin (Park Choongjae) and 1981-born Andy (Lee Seon Ho) are the members who form Shinhwa. In 1998, they belonged under SM Entertainment, who also managed H.O.T, Sechskies and other popular idol groups. They took their first step into the gayo world at a time when these groups had already a huge headstart in the music scene.

But it's because of things like this that we've become as close as brothers. The members exist only because Shinhwa exists. To each other, we can't exist separately."
▶The Story of Shinhwa continues
Starting from this year, members are all due to enlist into the army one after another (Eric and Dongwan being first on the list), and it will be difficult to see all 6 members altogether in the near future.
But whenever they have the chance to do so, Shinhwa members will always emphasize that "Shinhwa is forever". Fans have also held on to this belief for the past 10 years.
In the past 10 years, Shinhwa members have expanded their fanbase, through their appearances in dramas, movies, variety shows, and through that they have shown their personable charm and charisma in every way.
Shinhwa is no longer just an idol group now, they've been recognized as the "national idol group". As a result, the members are able to stay active not only in the gayo world, but in other fields as well. This will definitely help Shinhwa to become even longer-running than they are now.
To celebrate their 10th anniversary, Shinhwa will be releasing their 9th album, and also at the same time, hold a large-scale concert, to thank the fans for their love and support for the past 10 years.
The 22,000 tickets for the 10th anniversary concert were all sold out within one hour from the start of the presale.

[08.03.20][Trans] SHINHWA 10th anniversary VS SHINHWA
"Do you know how to shoot?" "Please dont be late again"
Taken many NGs scene on brotherhood, elder brother who set fault on younger brother's lateness. SHINHWA 9th album hit track MV shooting scene started off in a "criticizing situation". Youngest member Andy was the first who came, while he was holding an empty gun taking his shot scene on the field, arrived Hyesung. Hyesung talked to Andy in a bully but loving way, and while they were having a little mouth fighting with words to each other, the other members arrive one by one. They did not even prepared anything for the shooting, they just grab their outfit and started making joke with it, using that as a replacement on greetings. LeeMinWoo felt that JunJin's outfit of the day looks the same as his dad Charlie Park, and he joke "Dad! Please do a dance for me". When Hyesung was filming his scene holding a gun in his hand and said "Now shoot right at Eric."
Because everybody is smart so we walkdown everything together to have today
Because everybody knows how we should live
- KimDongWan
“Had never thought of who is our opponent group. Because we are all busy fighting with each other. Haha” – Shin HyeSung
Looking at these 6 man gathering together from after such a long time is like something which cant be discribe. When KimDongWan arrived the scene, he took out his camera and start snapping the members, Eric in his breaktime he asked his mate to hop into his car and start playing game. You can say that because it is in an area where wind and sunlight was so quiet but they had made it turn out to be a cozy situation. Although it is for the hit song MV shotting, but the atmosphere was relaxing, it is just like what SHINHWA had presented to everybody now. Although they are the local most longevity idol group, but due to their solo activities, their own management company, but they still have their own fame as an artist. They have their own car, their own staff and worker.
During my solo activities, I had once thought “Why am I alone”
I will have moments of loneliness too, and that is very tiring.
- Andy
Althoug it is just an Mv Shooting, but they have the time to gather around and doing the chat together. When there is a member is trying to change their outfit according to the scene needed, the other members will keep playing. They even make some nicknames to each other such as "Alessandro" & "Carlos". Because the funny South American clothing style was SHINHWA first try for the MV. Their hit song MV concept is actually a comedy but yet evil making of a gangster movie, the member wore the American outfit where they wont be wearing for another 2nd time and pose in the field. Specially to LeeMinWoo who received "The Best Outfit Award". MinWoo had done exactly what the director wanted him to be, like Leonardo Dicaprio in movie "Romeo & Juliet" where Juliet cousin brother image was the same as him, thus has receive everyone's attention and praises.
Saying that it’s 10th anniversary, but there will be no special performances
The most meaningful part is, because it is the 10th years, it is already been 10 years
- Eric
Holding out a hand to grab hold the member who had back out, the person at the front shared his luck with the rest of the members (laugh)
That’s how we had gone through for 10 years.
- LeeMinWoo
Because of this outfit, so the media's photographer had a difficult time on not being able to shoot "the handsome pictures" but a "funny pictures" of them, but this is what SHINHWA could do now. Currently, being as a group, being as a solo, they have their own popularity and fame, because they dont have any stress laying back down behind them and they had a humour while shooting together. SHINHWA was not only charming, but also had a funny side of them, the member just could not stop expressing their excitement on their face. While Eric was filming on his gorgeous side while holding the gun in his hand ans was about to shoot out the bullet off from his gun, who would know that he will suddenly shout "Bang Bang" out from his mouth.
Being as an idol group who had walk down together for 10 years, from popularity, friendship and etc. Just when they are together they will naturally expresses out their own charm and energy. MV Director wanted them to look at the sun set and walk with a smile hanging on their face, but they shouting and talking and smiling while walking forward on the road. There were no special word phrase of content, no, it was like a beautiful scenery, but they made the atmosphere up to a cozy standard and cracked everybody around the scene with laughters. This is the energy that had made SHINHWA to be together for 10 years. Just like a group of people who are going to end their own current generation to a higher level of position, SHINHWA looking at the sunset walking out from the scene, this MV, will the their last shooting along on these 10 years. When the shooting ended, they heavily repeated their famous phrases, "Hi everybody, we are SHINHWA!"
On the 10th anniversary Concert, we would want to show everybody as a group
not me and my solo, because we are together as one
- JunJin
