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.

T/N: “Right Wing” is the name of a YouTube channel in the literal sense. It’s a phrase that doesn’t have political association in Korean. Spot the Siberian husky mask behind Eric in the 1st pic? It’s probably the same one he wore in this post. He was spotted with other guys previously too.

Since people are curious about the original state of the food, I will reveal them at each stage~ These days when you’re getting a bit tired of the same chicken or clam broth kalguksu, a sujebi (hand-pulled dough soup) and kalguksu well marinaded in deep anchovy dried pollack base, and radish barley rice as appetizer are also very delicious #InTheWinter #Kalguksu

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.

ERIC: I have no intention to sell it to fans~ If I find something good, I’ll share it with you~
OP: I’m always thankful for the information you share!ㅠㅠ Eat good food and if you’re healthy, I’m satisfied with that. Please kindly reply to my nonsense ㅠㅠ I’ll stop saying nonsense from now on..
OP: I’m going to my parents’ house next week to pick radishes and cabbages!ㅋ
ERIC:Fighting!
OP1: Farming?? Weekend farm?? I made radish kimchi, but it’s bland because I didn’t season it well ㅋ I’m thinking about sprinkling more salt on top. Please tell me if you have any tips ㅋ Good luck making kimchi successfully ㅋㅋ
ERIC: You can add more salt ㅎㅎ
OP1: I’ll try to revive it somehow ㅋㅋㅋ
OP2:@OP1 I heard it’s bitter if you sprinkle salt on top. And it’s good to sprinkle salted shrimp or fish sauce.
OP1:@OP2 Wow, it’s a good tip!!! There are so many hidden masters among the goddesses ㅋ Thank you. I’ll do my best with your tips!
OP2:@OP1 I hope you succeed
ERIC:@OP2 Personally, since fish sauce is in charge of saltiness + unami, I think the appropriate amount depends on individual taste~ When you season with salt on top, the surface becomes salty and bitter. But it’s fine if you mix it in water and use the salt water~
OP1: Oh…um…….. Mimi, who is gullible, will discuss it with my best friend and decide (My eyes are shaking) #DumboTheElephant

luvvhyemi0224: It’s hard to make kimchi, but it’s good afterwards! If you make kimchi next week, boiled pork is a must, so make sure to eat it. And did our actor (Hyemi) take the picture??
ERIC: “Our actor”, this word is reassuring~ That’s right. My best friend took it for me~
OP: You’re a perfect husband I’m going to make kimchi next week ^^ Let’s make it delicious ~~
ERIC: Making kimchi is hard. Respect~ Fighting
OP: You’re Kim Jang “Hyuk” (play on Kimjang) ㅋㅋㅋ I also help my mom and make 100 cabbages of kimchi….. Oppa…hwaiting….
ERIC: We made about that much too ㅎ Fighting
OP: Thanks to you, I’m working hard on making kimchi Be careful from getting sick~ Enjoy making kimchi with your wife!
ERIC: Making kimchi is hard. Cheer up!
OP: Oppa, this is really like a healthy and happy life!.. After getting married, I feel these small moments are precious, so it’s healing..
ERIC: I think I’m grateful for a normal and peaceful life~ I hope you have a happy day in your daily life, full of things you’re thankful for~
OP2: Wow.. That sounds so cool, so I’m writing comments even though it’s someone else’s reply. That’s true ❤️
OP: As expected, our eternal leader
OP: How much kimchi are you making??
ERIC:Plentiful~
OP: What is Mr. Forest hashtag? ㅋㅋㅋ Last week, I made leaf mustard kimchi and cabbage kimchi. Do you want to exchange leaf mustard kimchi with cabbage kimchi? ㅋㅋㅋ
ERIC: Oh~ I don’t like selling kimchi, but this is fun~ They say to try other restaurants’ kimchi, but it’s very new to exchange kimchi if there’s some left after sharing with family
OP: ㅋㅋ If you have any thoughts, please meet up half way. The samgyetang place I told you about last time will be somewhere in the middle ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
OP2: OMG….That’s my favorite kimchi….. Oh my mustard kimchi …. You’re so talented….You and Mimi both…
OP: Let’s eat mustard kimchi with boiled pork. Come over. ㅋ
OP: Oh, it’s that gold kimchi. Should we go home shopping for kimchi?
ERIC: If I give it to the fans, I would have given it. What do you mean sell? ㅎ There isn’t even that much~
OP2: How about a limited sale for Shinhwa Changjo at the official fancafe? I think it’s okay to receive (money) for materials and transportation costs for the farmers.
ERIC: I’ll just earn money from the broadcasting station and the companies~ I’m not selling ㅎㅎ If you can make kimchi well, let’s exchange if there’s a chance~ It was someone’s idea
OP2: I’m going to have a group meeting with oppa like this ㅎㅎ I’ll work hard to make kimchi!!
OP: Call me. I’ll go help you!
ERIC: It’s like asking because you know it’s done.
OP: That’s not it
ERIC: ㅎㅎ Good
OP: Hyung, I will bring you to Ssanggok Valley next time~ I’ll serve you a really delicious white soup with Neungi mushrooms~ Be careful not to catch a cold!
ERIC: mushrooms are precious~ I’ll get them if I have a chance to go there
OP: If hyung knows that they are precious, I must take you there!
OP: Oppa you need to do ‘Three Meals a Day’ again ㅋㅋㅋ This time you can make soybean paste ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
ERIC: I respectfully decline~
OP: Oppa you should go on Cook King! You can compete with Jinnieㅋㅋㅋㅋ
ERIC: I graduated from cooking shows~ No more
OP: I’ll make sure to buy RicDoenjang (fermented soybean paste) when it’s released.
ERIC: I don’t plan on releasing it~
OP: Oppaㅋㅋㅋㅋ Kim Jang Hoon hashtag is the best!!! You killed it!!!ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
ERIC: I definitely killed it
OP: Wow~ You even make kimchi yourself~~ Surprised~~ The expression “best friend” is really touching~~ I should call my husband best friend~
ERIC: Nudge, you should also play best friends with your husband~❤️
OP: ‘Three Meals a Day’ memories ㅜㅜ When will you enter Deukryangdo oppa?(?) Will you make soybean paste stew with fermented soybeans?(?)
ERIC: Deukryangdo NAVER❤️
OP2: Let’s go Deukryangdo

You asked me to upload a picture of my face, so I’m uploading the bust shot I just took. I don’t think I look like a cat. #Dog Type #Dogs #Siberian Husky #Voice Is Husky Because It’s Cold In Siberia
T/N: Bust shot = photo from the chest up (often for portrait/ID)
Comments & Replies:

ERIC:I have to keep my face so I can’t give it to you. If I give it to you, I die… (LOLOLOL smart)
: …Ha.. This oppa is playing hard to get.
: Hand! Sit!
ERIC:Bite!
: Ah,, I lost
: Wow oppa, you’re funny
ERIC: Where’s the soul?
: Didn’t you post it to brag about your mask?
ERIC: I won’t comment.
: It feels like you are admitting it ㅎㅎ
This convo is amusing with how well the 2 commenters played and then Eric played along as he replied to OP2 instead…
: Are you in a good mood todayㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ I’m working overtime today so I don’t feel great…..ㅠㅠㅠ But what is the transparent one that you drank with tteokbokki…?ㅠㅠㅠㅠ
: Jangsu Makgeolli
: Oh? It’s that transparent???
: You need to calm down and eat the top part. But thinking about it, I should not reply for you to be lucky ㅠㅠ
: I know……..If you didn’t answer my question, I would ask you tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, and next year………Sad….
: I’m a big sinner. I’m going to condemn you from today. #GeneralHwang #GeneralMeme
ERICto: I hope you wrap it up smoothly

A Shinchang fan, whose birthday is March 24th, has been running a tteokbokki restaurant in Pohang with her sister for 20 years, sent me a tteokbokki meal kit~ It’s really good jmt. If you like tteokbokki and rabokki, try this. If you press tteok-bokki, the tag comes out! It seems like a famous restaurant already, but I hope it becomes even more successful~ #Tteokbokki #Jangsu Makgeolli #Mealkit #Tteokbokki Mealkit #Tteokbokki Restaurant #cuphouse #jmtgr

: Ramen noodles are alive. That’s real good ramen
ERIC: It comes with ramen noodles too. Just add water, boil it and that’s it. It’s the best~
: I don’t know how to find it.. I want to order. Can I just search for Pohang tteokbokki? If someone knows, please let me know~~
ERIC: If you click on the picture, the link pops up.

Originally, I was feeling a mess but thanks to little Ji Ahn, I’m energized. I’m going to go for a walk. For the little girl’s privacy, please delete the letter content I posted before #It’s uncle’s fault for not taking care and showing a little bit of your letter #Thanks for the present, Ji Ahnie
Words on the drawing:
- We are Shinhwa

Mandon, which I was recommended. It is clean and delicious, but the fat sirloin cutlet is one grade below Gaepo-dong’s “Liae” where you dip truffle oil. #Donkatsu #Mandon #Compared #Gaepo-dong #LiaeDonkatsu
Comments & Replies:
: Oppa you love your neighborhood~~ It is my wish to greet you happily in the neighborhood one time. Will I be able to. Whenever I run into you, my son is next to me ㅋㅋㅋ When we no longer have to wear masks, I will confidently ask to take a picture with my son ㅎㅎ. Neighborhood fan
MunEric: Did you run into me all the time? ㅎ Since I walk my dog every day, I think you might have seen me in the front ㅎ
: Yes, I’ve seen you often. I saw you walking with your best friend and drinking coffee. Whenever that happened, I told my husband beside me to learn a bit. My son used to follow all the puppies in the complex, so I’ve seen you that way too ㅎㅎ Will you allow me and my son to take a picture with you? ㅎㅎ The day we can take off masks ㅎㅎㅎ
: I want to try Yeondon. I need to go to Mandon too. Liae, as well.
MunEric: Liae > Mandon > Yeondon is personal preference. Aside from being cost-friendly, I don’t think Yeondon is good enough to queu in line for hours to eat.
: Oppa, if you’re going to review good restaurants on your account, show your face.
MunEric: I don’t want to
: Oppa..ㅠㅠ Even if you smile brightly and say no, I will wait…! ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
: I know some good donkatsu restaurants. So, where it is… To see more…
MunEric: View more makes me angry (joking)

MunEric: Hire-katsu, rosu-katsu shrimp-katsu, I ate them all.

MunEric: I know Jung Hyeong Don (comedian & show host)
: My favorite is Jungdon Donkatsu next to Seoul University Hospital, but they become a chain so there are many locations You should go there.
: Bambino in Ilsan Market is the best of donkatsu. If you want old-fashioned donkatsu, try it.

First Post:
I’m here for the second dose of Pfizer with my best friend #Vaccine #SecondDose #Pfizer #IAmHungry
: What are you going to eat after you get vaccinated~~??
ERIC: Mandon or Popolo Pizza, nearby restaurants~
: If there are a lot of people at Popolo, Primi Piatti is also good!
: Wow this is the place I recommended! It might hurt, so I recommend Mandon! Protein!!!
: For a cafe, go to PO coffee nearby. It’s a really delicious spot ㅋㅋㅋ
Second Post:
I heard Ibuprofen works better than Tylenol for the 2nd round of Pfizer, so I prepared this as well. Aja Aja Pfizer! They said it doesn’t hurt if you say that. #NoHashtag
T/N: aja aja fighting (아자 아자 화이팅) is an expression to boost morale or encouragement. Pfizer in Korean = 화이자. He switched out 팅 for 아자 아자 화이자 (aja aja Pfizer) as a play on 아자 아자 화이팅
Comments and Replies:
: Hyung, I took one Tylenol every 4 - 5 hours and two when I slept. I don’t catch a cold easily but without the medicine, I thought I was going to die when I got the 2nd dose. I hope you overcome it well.
ERIC: Gosh, it must have hurt more when you’re younge. I’m worried because I’m a baby, too.
: ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
: Baby Eric
: He is baby Eric now ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
: I hope it passes by without a problem!
ERIC: Like Mutalisk
T/N: Mutalisk is a character in Starcraft
: It’s not #nohashtag it’s #hashtag because even #nohashtag is a hashtag… I want to leave work
ERIC: You’re sharp.
: Wow, my husband and I were so excited because we were fine after getting the second dose of Moderna on Saturday. But at dawn, our fever rose to 39 degrees Celsius. We lived like zombies until Sunday. Now, we’re finally living like humans. Even if you’re not sick, take medicine in advance and keep water and food near your reach
ERIC: People say Moderna hurts more. You worked hard.
: Those who graduated from national school don’t get sick. Only those who graduated from elementary school get sick ㅋㅋ I don’t think you’ll get sick
ERIC: /Block love.yoon5115
: Ah~~ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
: Ah ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ I’m laughingㅋㅋㅋㅋ
T/N: In the old days, Korean elementary school was called national school (국민학교). But in 1996, it’s changed to elementary/primary school (초등학교). These days it’s used as a way to identify people who are older. If you say “I attended national school (국민학교),” it implies you’re at least mid-30s. So the commenter jokingly sais that Eric won’t get sick because he’s old And that’s why he joked back to block commenter
: I’m a nurse fan!! It’s best to take only acetaminophen-based relievers! If it hurts too much, I recommend you to take the injections prescribed by the hospital.
ERIC: What are the acetaminophen-based products?
: @muneric Tylenol 650mg pills. I buy it at pharmacy and take that!! I hope you don’t get sick and pass it safely.
: Oppa, I need a booster shot, but I’m already scared to deathㅜㅠㅠ It hurt so much for a few days after the first and second dosesㅜㅠㅠ Thinking of getting a shot again ㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎ
ERIC: Does everyone must get a booster shot? The 3rd dose?
: Booster shots are supposed to be for medical staffs first. I don’t think there is any information for the general public yet.
: At my current job, acetaminophen is used for headaches, body aches, and fever. We guide you to take ibuprofen only for heartaches and irregular heartbeats. Fighting! Fighting!
ERIC: Aha~ Please share a lot of good information~
: ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Oh I just knew this. I’ll prepare the medicine as you said when I get my second dose
: You have to say aja aja Pfizer loudly ㅎㅎ
ERIC: I said it while doing hand motions!
: As expected from our leader oppa
: Which vaccine will be good for the 3rd dose…
ERIC: Does everyone must get the 3rd dose?
: The 3rd dose is for senior citizens of 75 or older, hospital staffs, and COVID-19 vaccination hospitals^_ㅠ Nothing beyond that has been confirmed yet (from a hospital worker)
: I got a call, so I’m getting the 3rd dose I had a hard time during the 2nd dose How am I going to get the 3rd dose ㅠ Which medicine will be good
: They said it’s good to get the 3rd dose~ My hospital director told me~

: Oppa, your father-in-law was my middle school teacherㅋㅋㅋ Teacher Na and Oppa, enjoy your mealㅋㅋㅋ
MunEric: wow what’s the name?
: The name of the teacher? He showed the daughter’s photo in science classㅋㅋ Saying she was going to be a celebrityㅋㅋ I only learned science for 3 years, but he was the homeroom teacher of my cousin who was in the 1st year of middle school (7th grade)ㅋㅋ
: I think he’s asking about Shinchang’s name so he can ask his father-in-law.
: OMG I know this place ㅠㅠ I agree it’s a good restaurant
MunEric: Can you say it the initial consonants?
: If you say them, the search kings will be on fire oppa..
: It’s H M O R O G R
T/N: It’s “H M O R O G R” if follows the spelling of Korean consonants. If going by pronunciation, it would be “H M I R A G R” for 해-He 물-Mul 이-i 랑-Rang 아-A 구-Gu 랑-Rang
: Oh I saw it late so I’m replying late.. The one in ㅌㅎㄷ! Hehe.
: If you search it in a map with the first letters..It comes out right away
: It’s Lobstagram ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
MunEric: Good sense! I’m going to steal your tag~
: Feel free Have a delicious meal
: Eat well and have a good day today
MunEric: Let’s cheer up on Monday Songbin!
: Aww, oppa it looks so alive. It feels a bit cruelㅋㅋ
MunEric: Don’t scorn me for being a cruel woman.(T/N: It’s a line from the song “Tears” by So Chan Whee)
: I’m in trouble. You’re using a way to make people angry now..!!! (I’m not angry…! Just in case you misunderstand )
The first one is to stop talking, and the second one is
MunEric:Sigh..
: Let’s keep it a secret… (Desperate) If you tell me, I’ll be in the middle of the street…more
MunEric: I’m getting angry… (T/N: joking)
: I will shout I love you Eric in the middle of the street!!!!!!!!❤️

This restaurant is very delicious~ Compared to Apgujeong Haru, the Korean-style cold soba at this place is less salty but the broth is flavorful and it has a vintage interior. I really like it~ #Soba #ColdSoba #IsacSoba
Comments and Replies:
: Now that we’re all together should we start fangirling? Who should we start praising? Eric oppa is chosen^^^^^^^^^ Oppa, if your ears start itching and you start sneezing, that’s because of us~~~~ I love you
MunEric: Achoo (sneezing sound)
: Wow oppa, it wasn’t me this times. It was Shin Chang Joo who was saying Eric Eric
: Now that I see soba I want to eat naengmyun.. Flow of consciousnessㅎㅎ I also recommend Ilsan Yanggak. It’s a good restaurant for Pyeongyang naengymyun
MunEric: I’ve been to Eulmildae and Neungnado near here. Is Yanggak good as well?
: Each has its own charms, but Yanggak’s naengmyun is super delicious, as well as their other dishes.
: Master of buckwheat noodles is you, oppa
MunEric: No, the real master is Isak Soba!
: Ilsan Soba near this place is the most famous I recommend this place too oppa!
MunEric: Memo memo
: I strongly recommend Neungi Mushroom Duck House in front of Hyundai Department Store near here ♥ If there is cold wind, it is the best. My heart is pounding because you’re near my house ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
: Oppa, are you the promotinal fairy these days? I bought Zini Gwamegi and it’s so delicious
MunEric: It’s really jmt ㅎㅎ

Vogue: Is there an artist from SM that giriboy wants to work with?
Giriboy: There is, but i won’t tell you~
Vogue: Please let us know!
Giriboy: Eric. I like Eric a lot. In Shinwha, I liked Eric very much. So yes, Eric-hyungnim.
+ vogue also asked if there is there an artist from sm that giriboy wants to work with!
GR: There is, but i wont tell you~
V: Please let us know!
GR: Eric (Shinhwa) I like eric a lot. In Shinwha, I liked Eric very much. So yes, Eric-hyungnim. pic.twitter.com/vNdw4GS2Mi— leiii ☻ | avante! (@jaewonday94)October 20, 2021
This is not the first time Giriboy mentioned Eric & Shinhwa. Back in 2015 on Super Kpop K-Pop Rising, he picked Pharrell Williams,VerbalJint, and Shinhwa as his inspiration and Eric as his favorite member. Video is in English and the part starts at around 7:50

I finally ate Zini gwamegi. JMT, they sent cabbage, lettuce, kelp, seaweed, garlic, chives, and red pepper paste so I ate it all together. It was really delicious. It looked oily in the photo, so I thought it was a filter, but it actually looked like that. I had it at dinner but thought of it again, so I had it with soju at dawn. I strongly recommend it. #Gwamegi #ZiniGwamegi #jmt #LateNightSnack #Recommendation
T/N: Gwamegi is half-dried Pacific herring or saury.
JMT (존맛탱) is a slang for “freaking delicious”
Comments & Replies:
: My father, who is a gwamegi fanatic, said that the gwamegi you recommended was the best I ate it so deliciously that I left a review!
MunEric: Right? I was not sure if I was recommending it properly because it’s good for beginners, but I’m proud that the fanatic acknowledged it ㅎ
: You finally met gwamegi ㅋㅋ I also tried it for the first time and it was so delicious ❤️ Seeing the photo now, I want to eat it again, slurp
MunEric: Right ㅎ It was so delicious ㅎ
: Growing up, I ate gwamegi since I was little, but this time, I really enjoyed eating Zini Gwamegi~ There are many oily gwamegi and even vegetables. I’m planning to buy more and share with my family next time^^ Thank you for introducing me to good things~~
MunEric: Since the people who normally eat it say it’s good, I feel good recommending it~
: Oh my, a reply! Thank you~
: We ate it yesterday too!!ㅋ The red chili pepper paste was really good too ㅎㅎ Zini Gwamegi is the best.
MunEric: I have to order homemade red chili pepper paste separately, but it’s really good.
@zinisoosan: sniff sniff With how much you helped promoting, some might think we hired a model.. Thank you so so much We’ll continue doing our best to make good gwamegi!! From Mom: Eric looks so manly, I’ve liked him since a long time ago~
MunEric: Even people who have eaten gwamegi a lot have said it’s delicious, so I feel good and it’s worth recommending~ Thank you mother, you have good eyes ㅎㅎ
: Following Oppa, I bought and sent it to my parents. It arrived yesterday, heart pounding.
MunEric: I’m curious of their review~
: Oppa, it’s a complete success for me too❤️ It’s seriously so good.
MunEric: Right, this place is a little crazy.
: If there is another delicious place, please please share it You must promise.
: People living in the outskirts are crying ㅜㅜ I thought it would be fishy, so I haven’t tried it before, but I want to try it because you say it’s delicious It’s not delivered nationwide right? ㅋㅋ
MunEric: I think it delivers to the outskirts areas. Since it’s delivered from Pohang, it will deliver to all places?
: ❤️
@smartland_pohang: If you rip along the grain instead of cutting it with scissors, it tastes a lot better! It’s super delicious if you eat it with cabbage, seaweed (kelp, if don’t have seaweed), sliced garlic, pepper, and green onion♡ Add minced garlic, sesame seed, salt, and sesame oil to red pepper paste~ The red pepper paste sent from gwamegi stores is from factories, so it doesn’t taste as good. Oppa, eats a lot of delicious foods and stays healthy!!!
MunEric: Thank you for the tips~
@smartland_pohang: OMG!!! You replied
:
MunEric: Let’s try it ㅎ
: You finally know the taste of gwamegi Now, when the cold wind hits your cheeks, you will think of gwamegi instead of hobbang ㅋ
MunEric: That’s right..
T/N: hobbang = sweet red bean steamed buns. It’s often eaten on cold days in the winter.
: Oppa, I ate it yesterday too Really JMT!!
MunEric:Jinx
T/N: Jinx (찌찌뽕) is a sound word when two people say the same thing at the same time
: Ack I tried gwamegi once but I still don’t know the charm of gwamegi yet ㅠㅠ흑흑 Oppa, what do you think the charm of gwamegi is….
MunEric: You have to try gwamegi from a good place~
: I failed with every gwamegi store …. Is this place different? Even the places that everyone says delicious don’t seem to match with me ㅠ That probably means I don’t match with gwamegi?ㅜ
MunEric: Try this place, and if you still think it doesn’t taste good, then you can say you don’t match with gwamegi.
: Oh~ If you recommend it this much, I’ll trust you and order!!!
MunEric: Make sure to order handmade red chili-pepper paste. Don’t just dip gwamegi in it, wrap it up and eat it too~~
: Did you always like gwamegi?
MunEric: I didn’t eat it before because I thought it would be fishy, but I tried it for the first time.
: At this rate,, oppa ,, you have a stake in Zini Gwamegi,,
MunEric: I’ve never seen the owner and I’ve never received a single won. For the photo, it was so good that I said thank you and gave permission to use the photo.
: I wrote the comment because I was won over by your delicious looking photo?!❤️ If you come to Daegu next time, be sure to eat Makchang and Bangogaemuchimhoe! I’ll make you eating champion,,

I was surfing the Shinhwa hashtag on Instagram and I saw
A Shinchang has a young daughter, and it looks like the daughter is also a Shinchang ㅋㅋㅋ
She posted that her daughter prays every night to meet Eric
About two months passed since that post, but Eric ㅜㅜ
I’m not sure how he found out
He commented that he would send a signed CD and asked for the address and the daughter’s name
He also liked the Shinchang’s post ㅋㅋㅋ hah, our CEO, even his feedback is perfect
To be honest, signing an album and mailing it out,
It doesn’t seem like a big deal, but it requires a lot of time and effort
It’s something you can’t do if you don’t genuinely care
But Eric always does this consistently and quietly even when he’s not actively promoting
This person is our leader, everyone ㅜㅜ
I’m not even the one who got the gift, but I’m touched
What does Shinhwa and ShinChang mean to Eric?
Of course, I’m sure it’s not just Eric, but all of Shinhwa has a same heart!
I’m a bit cautious because it’s a personal account of the Shinchang who received the gift
If you think this post will affect her negatively, let me know in the comment,,! I’ll take it down right away
Eric’s comment on the IG post:
You (the little girl) prayed diligently, Eric Ahjussi will send you a present~ Please DM me your address I’ll send you a signed CD~ Your daughter’s name as well~
T/N: As the timestamp on this screen capture, Eric’s comment was about 2 weeks old. That means it was around end of September or early October at the time OP made the post on Shinhwa’s DC Gall (Oct.14, 2021)

Translation: EricMun.tumblr
———————————————————————————————————–
As mentioned, OP is being careful/respectful of Shinchang’s privacy because it’s a personal account. Therefore she didn’t screen capture the original post, just Eric’s comment.
From another post, looks like he gifted the little one the limited edition of “The Return” album with all 6 signatures of Shinhwa and the “Eric In Hong Kong” photobook, autographed especially to her.
