This! I believe that the fans of 1st & 2nd generation groups will totally relate to this. People who’re dissing others using age.. what’s their logic?!! will you & your fave idols stay young forever?!!! .. aging is something everyone will definitely experience one day, so what’s to brag about?!.. just wish that your idols will grow as successful & healthy like our oppas after 20 years of debut. Music knows no boundaries like age, and aging means years & years of priceless experience & maturity. Without Shinhwa & idols whom some people make fun of their age nowadays, Kpop wouldn’t be the same. They paved the way to what Kpop is today, so you should be thankful, grateful & respectable to them.
Things I learnt from Shinhwa is that “age is just a number. Being old doesn’t mean we must stop doing what we like the most.”
Thank you our smart & dependable leader, Eric. & thank you haazoi for reminding me of this. It was in 2011 from Eric’s old twitter account. 2011, when the oldest member was only 32 years old!
“Shinhwa is a team I want to meet again even if I was reborn”
Their affection for a team they have stood by for 20 years was more special than expected. This is the story of group Shinhwa, who are releasing their 20th anniversary special album “Heart” at 6pm on the 28th. Eric, who even went in and out of the courtroom to protect the team’s name, was surprisingly calm regarding the “20 years”. But that is also because “promoting as Shinhwa was just too natural”. We met Shinhwa at Amoris Hall, Youngdengpo Times Square, Seoul before the release of “Heart”.
Q: This year is your 20th anniversary since your 1998 debut. How does it feel? Eric: We have promoted without a break. It feels really special. I would like to thank the members and the fans, and also all the people who work with us. I am grateful that we are still able to release albums and perform on stage.
Q: What does the album title “Heart” mean? Hyesung: Just like a heart that never stops beating, Shinhwa will continue on. We are often asked, in the past 20 years, “What does Shinhwa mean to the members?”, and there was once when Minwoo said, “Heart”. Even 20 years after our debut, our hearts still flutters with excitement when we stand on stage to meet the fans, so we chose that as the title.
Q: How did “Kiss Me Like That” become the title track? Minwoo: We choose the title track while considering the performance. This song was chosen because we thought of choosing something with a performance and song that only Shinhwa could pull off. My affection for the song grew while recording, choreographing and filming the music video for this song.
