SHINee's Interview with 10asia Q. How did you feel after winning number one on the day of your comeback stage? Minho: I was really surprised. At first, I thought that I would be really happy with just being close to ranking number one, but then we actually got number one... Q. Key had a really unbelievable expression! Key: Haha, my expression seems to not have been under my control (laughs) Minho: That day was pretty exciting. Even though winning number one is a good thing, we saw the Super Junior hyungs tearing up for our win, and I just became really excited and emotional. Q. Though it is well-received, the "Juliette" concept is pretty radical. Key wore a pink halter top that revealed his back on 'Inkigayo'. Did you not feel flustered about it? Key: When I first wore these kinds of clothes last year, I was pretty flustered. But now I'm not really surprised by it. I actually like it now (laughs). Jonghyun: Isn't it just like a girl's halter top? (laughs) Key: That was outdated 20 years ago! (laughs) We have also studied a bit about fashion concepts, and I'd be okay if I had to take pictures with these kinds of clothes again. It feels fitting. Q. How did your parents react to the new concept? Key: They were surprised because it was pink! (laughs) So that's why it looks more appealing. Jonghyun: My mom was really worried. "What kind of thing are you showing from this?" (laughs) Especially the album cover, wearing the masks were really weird. Wearing those kinds of glasses, what is it supposed to be? (laughs) Minho: "The first time I saw it, it looked really magical/mystical. This time you also have a new thing to try out!" They said things like that. "This is very fitting, it looks pretty okay." Taemin: It was really fresh! In this opportunity, we can show everyone our appeal. (laughs) 10asia's staff prepared coffee and other drinks for SHINee. But SHINee only ate and drank a litle bit. From this, we can understand how they take care of their figures. And it seems like they are now even more suited to wearing skinny jeans and even lost a bit of baby fat. Q. In order to perform at your best on stage, you need to stay attentive and need a lot of energy. This time, you all returned with slimmer bodies. Jonghyun: It's probably because we lost a lot of baby fat. (laughs) Q. But there wasn't that much baby fat to begin with! (laughs) Are there any other exercises that you do? Jonghyun: In order to stay healthy, we do some exercises. In the four months that we were gone, we did them nonstop. Q. So how do you guys have enough energy to perform on stage? Key: We take care of ourselves. Like for dieting, we would watch our weight. We won't eat after 7PM, and in order to have good skin, we eat less fast foods. Q. Taemin's singing is much more stable now. Is there anything that you especially worked on? Taemin: Dancing and singing at the same time makes breathing hard. So I did a lot of breathing exercises and worked hard. Thank you to everyone for acknowledging my hard work! Q. Onew and Jonghyun sang "Please, Don't Go". The lyrics sound like they are describing a person's breaking point. While you were singing, what went through your mind? Onew: I thought about what other people would feel after hearing the song. And I also read a lot of books and watch a lot of movies. I really like the movie "If Only", and listening to this song reveals all of the emotions. Q. Not long ago, we saw a lot of manga in your dorm. Are there any mangas and movies that you especially like? Key: "Love Me If You Dare". I don't really like movies that only talk about love. When I watch this movie, I feel like I'm watching a real romance. I must also have a love like that in the future. Taemin: I really like horror movies. When I see really action-packed or colorful/bright movies, I think of dance stages. Minho:I really like action movies. I especially like the <007> and James Bond series. I also really like . Q. What part about it do you like? Minho: The competitive part? (laughs). I've read this manga since I was young, so it was a huge influence on me. Q. What kind of attiude did you develop from it? Onew: A man that never gives up (laughs) Minho: That's true. A really justifed man. I really like it. Q. When playing games in the dorm, would the competitve spirit arise? Minho: Yes. But the other members don't really like playing games. We would play "Winning Eleven" (a soccer game), but only after I beg them. (laughs). I've recently began teaching Taemin. I would always ask Taemin if we could play another round, and recently, Taemin would also ask to play another round. My competitiveness is spreading around the world. (laughs) Jonghyun: The members act just like regular high school students. So we don't really like playing games. Onew: I would also play a round with Minho. But only one round, and after it, I would go back to my room. Q. Let's play one round of "Winning Eleven" then! Minho: Yeah. It's supposed to be like: after playing one round, we play for three rounds, and after three rounds, we play for five rounds. Jonghyun: Key and I wouldn't even play, we would always just sit on the side and watch. (laughs) Q. All of the members have different interests and likes. Everyone's ideal types seem to differ as well. If you had a girlfriend, what would you do? Onew: (claps) I want to play the piano and sing for her. Jonghyun: I want to exchange photos, and then she would always carry around my photo. I usually don't really take pictures, so she would have the only pictures of me. (laughs) Key: I want to go shopping. Q. Shopping? Key: To look at clothes...because I really like choosing and buying clothes. I can't really play piano for her. (laughs) Q. A boyfriend shopping with his girlfriend is not an easy thing. Key: I frequently go shopping with my mom. Q. That is really uncommon for boys! Key: Last year, I went shopping a lot with her. I bought my own clothes, as well as my mom's clothes. When you're shopping with me, it can never be boring. Q. And Minho? Onew: Want to play soccer? (laughs) Minho: Yeah. I want to play soccer together. I want to show her my skills, and after she knows, we can become closer.

Jaebeom in Nylone June 2009 Park Jae Beom (JaeBeom of 2PM) did a photo shoot and interview for Nylon’s June issue. Excerpts are below. How did you like the tattoo we drew on for today’s shoot? I thought you’d have a tattoo since you rapped and b-boyed (breakdanced) while growing up in Seattle; I’m surprised [that you don't]. It’s cool. The company (JYP Entertainment) won’t allow it since we’re an idol group. But I certainly want to get one later on. How do you like photo shoots? I had fun. It wasn’t tiring at all. Since I exercise several hours a day, this extent is not tiring. It would have good if I was a bit taller and better looking. You're figure and moves are good. Before debuting as [part of] 2PM, I even received a prize as a b-boy in the States. I saw a video of your first place win in Marysville’s Breaking the Silence – your body movements are very free and agile. Thank you. I still do it. Even now, my friends who are there keep winning the prize for first place. It’s a team called AOM – Art of Movement. Whenever I visit the States I go out to competitions with them. I’ve heard that you clashed a lot with the company’s training methods when you first went in because you liked to dance freely without set schedules. I’m the type to manage myself. It was really tough because the scheduling didn’t suit me, the food didn’t suit me, and I couldn’t communicate well either. I also wanted to see my family. There weren’t many trainees at that time either. I even thought of giving up because it was difficult but truthfully, it’s embarrassing to give up. I didn’t want to disappoint my mom either. Now, my mom as well as my friends are proud of me. I’m happy. Weren’t you uneasy how the group almost dissipated because the members kept switching? JunSu and I were here at the beginning but the kids kept coming and going after that. I wasn’t nervous. I don’t know. I just thought this is how it is. I don’t have a worrying personality. I just thought, ‘What happens will happen, to the extent of effort I put in’. I think that in life when I work hard, things turn out well; if I’m lazy, things don’t turn out. I think that’s as it should be. I used to play basketball until high school when I took up dancing and singing. When was the first time you got into music and dance? In grade 2 of elementary school my older male cousin was listening to rap on a walkman. The track was Warren G’s ‘Regulator’. I’ve completely been in love with hip hop since then. I didn’t think that I have to do something about it. I simply kept buying and listening to CDs since then. In kindergarten, I listened to Michael Jackson a lot. If you look at it one way, it’s really amazing. I’d follow along and dance while watching Michael Jackson. To be honest, I debated a lot before coming into JYP because I enjoy simply dancing and chilling with friends. But then I thought that it would be good to show something rather than just dance like that. What’s the most important thing you’ve learned since coming to JYP? That you can’t do it if you’re weak. I think that only very strong people can become singers. I don’t think it’s something that any regular person can do. What does it mean to be strong? A person with will power. A tough person who can stand to the end. It’s like that especially at JYP. Since we do just acrobatics for four hours and such. From the beginning your leg can get torn and it really hurts. It’s difficult. Then you must be a really tough person? That’s right. Since I’ve gotten this far. I just kept exercising by myself. Other people seem to use trainers to get their ideal body. I didn’t know. I used to run outside in the early morning in the middle of winter. Why? In order to look good? I just liked Usher’s six pack. I worked out my abs since seeing [usher's] in middle school. In high school I did weight training to make my body light. I had to since I was a b-boy. There must be some things that you don’t do in order to maintain your ideal body. I don’t smoke nor do I drink alcoh ol. I dislike it. It’s not good for one’s health either. Alcohol doesn’t taste good either. I’ve never tried smoking even once so I’m not sure about that.
