SHINee will be meeting up with their ’6th member’ or MC Jun Hyun Moo for the upcoming episode ofJTBC‘s ‘Hidden Singer‘.
A representative stated that veteran singer Lee Moon Sae, who is the guest for this episode, had a special place in his heart for SHINee, revealing the reason why they were brought on for this special.
The rep also commented,“Lee Moon Sae showed his affection for SHINee and even invited them to his concert. In addition, during this filming, Park Hye Mi, Yurisangja, Lee Sae Joon, Park Kyung Lim, Michelle Lee, and more featured as guests and performed covers of Lee Moon Sae’s hit songs. But Lee Moon Sae was especially pleased as he listened, with his eyes closed, to Onew who sang ‘Forever With You‘.”
Onew also flustered the veteran singer as he jokingly remarked, “Lee Moon Sae sunbaenim made his debut before we were even born,” while in the midst of expressing his admiration for him.
SHINee also joined MC Jun Hyun Moo to perform their trademark “Lucifer” dance that always brings about a lot of laughs when Jun Hyun Moo attempts his interpretation.

Netizens discover conflicting statements on Jiyeon’s first kiss experience


Jiyeon is on the chopping block yet again for her conflicting statements.
Back on May 13, the four members of T-ara N4 were guests on Mnet‘s ‘Beatles Code 2‘, and the girls received attention as they talked about their first kisses. On the episode, Jiyeon had shared, “I had my first kiss in my third year of junior high. I don’t remember well but I think he was an oppa.”
However netizens have dug up a past statement from Jiyeon which conflicted with what she stated on Beatles Code. Back in May 2010, she appeared on ‘Strong Heart‘ and stated, “I shared my very first kiss with Yoo Seung Ho, my ideal type.” She shared a kiss with Yoo Seung Ho for a scene in the music video for the ironically titled, “Lies“. Jiyeon also revealed on the same show, “I was embarrassed during the kiss scene because Yoo Seung Ho’s face was right in front of mine. I was going to just pretend, but we did it for real because the director demanded it. It was the first kiss of my life. I really enjoyed it.”
Some netizens who discovered this stated, “You’re not even that old. How can you not remember who your first kiss was with?“, “At a time like this, she should’ve been more careful“, and “Is anything she says the truth?“. Others came to Jiyeon’s defense and said, “It’s not strange for someone to not remember clearly“, and “She probably just got mixed up, she did say she didn’t remember well“.
