SHINee Members Think Onew Looks Like “Superman Returns” Triplet Min Gook

SHINee Members Think Onew Looks Like “Superman Returns” Triplet Min Gook

On May 17, the members of SHINee opened up a press conference for their solo concert “SHINee World IV in Seoul,” ahead of their upcoming comeback with their fourth full-length album titled “Odd.”

During the press conference, the members were asked to describe one another’s special characteristics. About Onew, the members explained, “[Onew] is very versatile. He’s quite unique. There are a lot of times when he is calm on the outside, but it would be great if he could appear on a program where he can show his natural side. Onew has the funniest character in the world that is unique to him. We think that if his charms could be expressed fully, a lot more people would love him.”

Member Minho continued, “The triplets of the child-rearing program [‘Superman Returns’] are very popular these days. Among the triplets, [Onew] looks a lot like Min Gook. So we always call him ‘Min Gook-Onew.’ Onew hyung was born first so Min Gook should actually look like Onew hyung, but it’s the opposite. [Onew] is looking more and more like Min Gook.”

Minho also added, “I hope Onew hyung can show his charms more and more like Min Gook through our upcoming promotions,” causing Onew to laugh.

Meanwhile, SHINee will be performing brand new songs for the first time from their upcoming album during their comeback concert.

Do you see the resemblance between them?

Chu Sarang and Yuto Get Competitive on “Superman Returns”

Chu Sarang and Yuto Get Competitive on “Superman Returns”

Chu Sarang and Yuto of “Superman Returns” may be the best of friends, but that doesn’t mean everything’s always rosy between them – especially when something brings out their competitive streaks!

A year ago on the show, Chu Sung Hoon took Chu Sarang to his friend’s gymnastics club so that she could take a class there. However, she wasn’t comfortable around all the strangers, so both the guys agreed that she should come back in about a year and try again.

It seems that Chu Sung Hoon is keeping his promise, as this week on “Superman Returns” he takes Chu Sarang back to the gymnastics club, this time with her best friend Yuto!

However, the two of them become so competitive with each other that they both end up in tears.

According to reports, the first time they race each other along the trampoline, Yuto wins and Chu Sarang collapses on the trampoline, wailing as Yuto does a little victory dance – which of course just makes Chu Sarang even more upset.

It’s said that afterwards, the two go back and forth between laughter and tears as they keep racing each other. We’ll have to wait until Sunday’s episode to see if the two still leave the club as friends despite their competitiveness! But if what’s happened in the past is any indication, they’ll be happily doing their shuffle dance together in no time.

This episode of “Superman Returns” airs on May 17.
