Shinhwa member Kim Dong-wan told the secret story that he practiced all four taboos during his idol activities.
Kim Dong-wan, who appeared on MBC's entertainment program 'Radio Star' yesterday (16th), recalled the time when he tried an unconventional visual rocker concept, saying, "I was a popular member at the beginning of my debut, but I became an unpopular member due to the wrong choice in the moment."
Regarding this, Dongwan Kim honestly confessed, "I tried, thinking, 'Whatever I do, the fans will like it', but the fans were shocked.
Kim Dong-wan continued, "One of the memes circulating online these days is 'four things idols should never do', and my photos are all there." He said, "I want to shave my head, grow a beard, tan, and build muscle, which are considered taboo items for idols. They said they did it all, but when asked by the MCs why they did that, Dongwan Kim confessed, "I shaved myself with a razor without consulting with the agency. It seems that there was rebellion against the agency that kept insisting on the image of a young boy."
Thanks to Kim Dong-wan's tenacity (?), even today, pictures of Kim Dong-wan are being talked about online, saying that it is a legend that went from being in charge of admission to being in charge of deduction.
In the secret story that Dongwan Kim honestly revealed, netizens commented, "I bought a poster for the album when I had a rocker concept, but I remember that I rolled it up because I was scared...", "It was a beast, it was a beast", "It was a shock at the time, but as time passes, it's all memories" are reacting.
