On April 14th, three members of Korea’s longest-running group Shinhwa, Kim Dong-wan,Junjin,Andy and their fanclub, Shinhwa Changjo, appeared as main guests on KBS 2TV’s ’King of Jujeop’.
SS501’sHeo Youngsaeng,Stray Kids’HyunjinandSeungmin also came as guests. Heo Young-saeng shared “I danced to Shinhwa’s ’Hey, Come On!’ at the festival in my senior year of junior high.The cheers and popularity I received at that time made me dream to become a singer like Shinhwa.” Hyunjin added, “Shinhwa are like the seniors of all seniors. It wasn’t a question for me to fall in love with their works.”
Next, a video of a family of a mother and daughter was shown. The 10-year-old daughter follows her mom and becomes Shinhwa fan. ”I have Shinhwa goods on the bookshelf,“ the young fan shared as she showed her room full of Shinhwa goods.
The Shinchang junior made everyone laugh when she said that Eric is more handsome than her father. ”My most favorite member is Uncle Eric. He’s so handsome. Second place is Minwoo, 3rd place Junjin, 4th place Andy, 5th place Hyesung, and 6th place is Uncle Kim Dongwan,“ she continued her ranking. Dong-wan showed his sweet side to the 10-year-old fan when they were in the studio afterward but failed to change her mind about his position.
Her mother, one of original Shinhwa fans, revealed past goods that are like ‘relics’. As the mother continued to show some of the 'rare items’, attention was specially drawn to the semi-nude photobook, the first ever nude photobook of idols in Korea. The photobook caught Park Mi-sun‘s attention. ”The goods I’ve been collecting since I was young are quite impressive,“ said host Park Mi-sun. When Lee Tae-gon asked her about the price of the semi-nude photobook, she surprised with, ”Whatever seller calls is the price.“
”They were all really naked, especially Eric,“ Lee Tae-gon commented as he saw the photobook through VCR. It caused laughter as it showed Eric’s behinds. Kim Dongwan chimed in with ”Eric’s butt is cute.“ SS501 Heo Young-saeng drew laughter as he added, “I will remember this every time I see them from now on.” Park Mi-sun, who is a fan of Eric, covered her face in embarrassment.
When asked, ’Who is the best among these naked people?’ the Shinchang mother said, ”It’s Shin Hye-sung oppa. He looks like he came out of a cartoon. He’s tall and has a handsome face. He’s slim but has good stamina,“ she laughed.
Among the goods, she held out a badge that had all the members in it. ”This was when they received the grand prize. I cried a lot back then. They left the agency (SM Ent.) and went through so much hardship to finally receive the grand prize for ’BRAND NEW’,“ she explained and burst to tears. Seeing the video clip, Seungmin said, ”From her tears, I realized her love for Shinhwa (as a fan) was deeper than I thought.“
Her husband seemed jealous of such love. Later it showed he was making seaweed soup in the kitchen. ”It’s the 24th anniversary of Shinhwa. It’s their 24th birthday,“ replied the husband as he continued boiling seaweed soup. Andy, Dongwan, Junjin were lost for words.
A Shinhwa Changjo couple also appeared on the show. The couple sang Shinhwa’s songs at their wedding and used them as medley. The couple’s mother-in-law, who is a fan of Kim Hee-jae (trot prodigy), was also in the studio. ”She would argue with me about wearing orange knowing that I am a big fan of Kim Hee-jae. And not just to anyone. Me, her mother-in-law!” mother-in-law commented. The Shinchang husband boasted that he got 1st place in a contest during military service by dancing to Shinhwa’s ‘Perfect Man’ and he followed up with an imitation of Shin Hye-sung’s dance.
The orange wave that filled the studio was spectacular. Shinhwa appeared and performed ’Haegyeolsa’ and ’BRAND NEW’.
Shinhwa fans brought back memories of having to book reservation at the banks for Shinhwa’s concerts. They agreed that the 2001 Guerrilla concert was the best stage of all time. Junjin explained, “That was in 4th year since our debut. It was a time when the members told each other to work harder on behalf of Andy (who was absent).” Dongwan, Junjin, Andy and the fans all wiped away tears as they re-watched the 2001 Guerrilla concert.
“A month after (Guerrilla concert), there was a fan meeting at Jamsil Stadium. I could hear my name as I got closer to the location. I saw the members sitting in the waiting room, extremely nervous and not knowing what to say. We just exchanged little kisses out of nowhere,“ Andy recalled.
Heo Young-saeng commented that, ”I wondered how the hyungs are active for such a long time; and they told me to 'just fight’.“ Kim Dong-wan said, “I used to fight when I were young. As I get older, I just sulk about it.”
To the fans in the studio, Dongwan said, “Everyone here has aged quite a bit. I hope you take care of your health so you can scream when the concerts are back.” Junjin said, “I hope six of us to gather again soon. I hope the fans’ thoughts and ours are the same.” Andy made the fans cry when he said “I love you.”
Before the end of the show, Lee Min-woo appeared in a surprise video call. “Shinhwa Changjo, are you doing well? I want to see you just by hearing your voice. The 24th anniversary is like a dream. It’s possible to come this far because of Shinhwa Chanjo,” he said.
On February 16th, Shinhwa Eric’s fanclub “UBEric” sent in donation for treatment of pediatric cancers to the Korea Childhood Leukemia Foundation (KCLF) in celebration of Shinhwa’s Eric’s (Moon Jung-hyuk) birthday.
The donation will be used by the Korea Childhood Leukemia Foundation in the name of “Shinhwa’s Eric” toward pediatric cancer treatments.
Starting their first donation in February 2014, UBEric has been donating for eight years this year. And so far, they have donated a total of 16,120,000 won to provide treatment expenses for nine children.
“The letters sent by the supported children’s families is the reward and driving force for us to keep giving every year. I deeply thank the supporters for their efforts to continue again this year.” a UBEric representative commented.
The Korea Childhood Leukemia Foundation issued a donation certificate to UBEric on February 16th, Eric’s birthday. The certificate contained a commemorative message saying, “UBEric is sending love to the children fighting childhood cancer again this year!”
Every year on this special day since February 2014, we would like to express our gratitude once again to UBEric, who has delivered warm love to children with childhood cancers, and to Shinhwa’s Eric, who has been the motivation for the donation opportunity.

Shinhwa member and actor Eric shared his daily life.
On December 3rd, Eric posted on his Instagram “Next door neighbor gave us a giant yellowtail. The neighboring father made the sashimi himself and brought it over. The fragrance of the oil is well distributed through out so I think it’s a really big yellowtail. We ate it deliciously and returned the plate back with kimchi made from the vegetables my grandmother harvested herself. I hope they like it.”
The released photos showed delicious yellowtail sashimi beautifully plated.
Eric expressed his satisfaction for moving to the neighborhood by saying “Neighbor that gave us yellowtails. I’m so glad we moved to Ilsan. End of today’s diary”
He also gave us laughter by posting a photo of him holding his soju glass saying “For those who asked where’s the soju? Here’s the soju~”
Meanwhile, Eric and actress Na Hyemi got married in 2017.
