INFINITE‘s Sunggyu shared that the group members’ lying habits are preventing them from establishing better teamwork.
On the June 5th broadcast of SBS‘s ‘Strong Heart‘, Sunggyu remarked, “The members have now figured out how to get more air time… so now they keep making things up, and the target is always me.”
“One day Hoya lied and said that one time when the cameras were off, I suggested to the members that I should be the main focus that day,” he revealed.
“The more they enjoyed getting air time, the more they created a false character of me,” he continued. “I’m only 24, but they started calling me ‘old man’. I’m actually really healthy, but my fans keep telling me to be strong.”
“I could be in a really great mood, but I quickly become depressed when a program begins,” he added. “Even during idol athletic programs, I know I can easily go through with it, but I feel like I shouldn’t win. These days, it’s really hard pretending that things are actually hard.”

Unfortunately, the lead vocal tried to set Sunhwa up with a different man. Though a bit dumbfounded, Sunhwa suddenly turned to the audience after working up some courage and remarked, “If you think I look good with this man next to me, raise one finger, but if you think I look good with the main vocal, raise two fingers.”

“I was in the same class as Eunhyuk in the sixth grade,” she explained, revealing the love letter that Eunhyuk had written her.
Eunhyuk could not hide his embarrassment as she began to reveal the contents of the letter. In the note, Eunhyuk referred to himself as ‘Yoo Ji Hyuk‘, explaining that he had taken the last name of then-famous singer Yoo Seung Jun and combined it with ’Ji’ from Eun Ji Won‘s name, and ‘Hyuk’ fromH.O.T‘s Jang Wook Hyuk, suggesting he was the combination the popular performers at the time. The guests and the MCs could not hide their laughter as Eunhyuk covered his face out of embarrassment.
“I Like You,” Eunhyuk wrote as he concluded the letter, expressing his feelings for Choi Yoon Young.
While the other guests exploded into laughs, Choi Yoon Young once again dumbfounded Eunhyuk by saying, “If he really liked me, he would have written ‘I love you’. Were you playing with my feelings?”

On the May 29th broadcast of SBS ‘Strong Heart‘, Leeteuk remarked, “Before IU reveals her weight, I will reveal my own weight.”
“My online profile says my height is 178cm (5’10″),” he added. Leeteuk then stood on the scale, and his weight leveled at 65kg (143 pounds).
However, the guests and the viewers were not able to see the accurate measurement of Leeteuk’s height for he ducked down at the critical moment in order to tie his shoelaces (when he did not have any shoes on).
When they tried to get him to remeasure, Leeteuk once again distorted the reading by suddenly coming to stand on tipped toes to maximize his height . But despite reaching up on his tipped toes to boost himself up, he measured only 1 cm taller than his profile at 179 cm, making it obvious that his profile height had been exaggerated.
While the studio was busy laughing, Leeteuk dashed off and quickly put his shoes on to avoid being remeasured while also laughing at his attempts

“The reason why I became close with Boa unni was because we both couldn’t dance when we were trainees,” she explained. “When others were practicing difficult choreographies, we only did the basic moves. But seeing unni debut in a dance group and dancing as well as the other members made me feel so proud.”
“Please don’t edit Boa unni’s part of the show today,” she requested. “I’m so moved that I am able to feature in a great SBS variety show with the unni I endured difficult times with.”

“After I was done, I showed it to the art director, who immediately said I couldn’t use the drawing because it looked a bit too racy… I was a bit upset because I worked so hard on it, so I decided to upload it on Twitter to show everyone the picture anyways.

When asked, “What is your secret to maintaining your youthful beauty?” Jang Nara replied, “I apply makeup very meticulously.”
The singer/actress continued to explain that her baby-faced appearance was in fact due to makeup ,”When I go out, there is a big difference between when I wear makeup and when I don’t. The impact of makeup is huge.”

Jang Nara then revealed her secret admitting, “Truthfully, that wasn’t a bare-faced photo. Even though I wasn’t bare-faced, people kept describing it as bare-faced so I just didn’t say anything. In that photo, I’m wearing BB cream, eyeliner, and even drew in my eye brows.”
Comedian Song Eun Ee then made the hilarious comment, “BB cream isn’t even considered makeup. Some people lose up to 3kg after they take their makeup off.”
What do you guys think? Is Jang Nara’s baby-faced beauty due to makeup or is the star just being modest?

The reasons behind Lee Seung Gi’s decision to exit lie in his jam-packed schedule. The entertainer will be preparing for his album debut in Japan, and his new mini-series, MBC’s ‘King 2 Hearts‘, will broadcast its first episode in March.
At this time, a serious search for the next MC of ‘Strong Heart’ is reported to be in process.

When the other guests pressed her for details, Jisook added, “He has double eye-lids and I dated him for about a year. Now, we’re just good friends.”
“He was a big help to me during my difficult trainee days, and I was thankful to have met him,” she remarked.

The Dal Shabet member remarked that she was on set of the MV shoot waiting for filming to begin, when she saw a bright light from one side of the room.
“There was this bright light on one side of the set, so I looked over and lo and behold, Big Bang’s Taeyang was over there,” she said. “I kicked myself for not trying harder that morning.”
And at the the second shoot that took place the same day, Subin was once again mesmerized.
“I was filming a scene where I had to seduce a man at the casino table, when I saw another bright light,” she said. “It was bigger and brighter than the one I saw earlier. When I looked in that direction, I saw G-Dragon sporting a large pair of shades,” she continued.
But despite being extremely starstruck, Subin decided to play it cool. She admits that although her heart felt like it was going to burst out of excitement, she remarked, “I was also an established model, so I pretended to be unfazed and greeted them as confidently as I could,” which caused the entire ‘Strong Heart’ set to explode into laughs.

On the episode of SBS’s Strong Heart that aired on January 31st, Siwan revealed, “I didn’t want to look shorter than everyone else around my age so I put some heel inserts inside my shoes. When we filmed inside I was forced to put the inserts inside the Traditional Korean Socks that I wore.” and brought the cast into fits of laughter.
Siwan continued, “I thought I fooled everyone on the production team. Even the director had no idea I had heel inserts on. But then one day the director decided that we should begin a shoot with a close-up of my foot. After the director said ‘CUT’ I thought everything was over and that no one figured out my secret. Then the scriptwriter called me over.” As soon as he neared the scriptwriter he immediately stated, “I wore a couple of socks today so it might look a little thick.” The scriptwriter laughingly replied, “Socks? Are you kidding me? Take the insoles out.”
Meanwhile, Siwan also drew interest from the other guests after admitting that he had never had a girlfriend before.

Mir remarked, “I feel like my sister always has me in the palm of her hand. Where ever I go, I feel like she’s keeping close watch.” Go Eun Ah who was a bit taken back by his remark came to her own defense saying, “It’s because I care about my little brother so much. I am constantly worried about his well being.”
Then she added, “I’m worried about him meeting girls, and I always look up girls that I think he may be interested in.”
Mir hilariously continued to express his frustration over his sister who is overly involved in his life.

The January 17th episode of ‘Strong Heart‘ was a ‘couple’ special, where the guests were featured in pairs. All the ‘couples’ on the program knew each other extremely well, with the exception of Seo Jun Young & Bora.
Seo Jun Young specifically went out of his way to ask the staff members to be paired up with Bora.
“We decided not to say this publicly…“, he bashfully began. ‘Uncle fan’ Boom who became jealous of Seo Jun Young remarked, “We need to find out how SISTAR’s Bora feels towards him,” but Bora boldly responded, “I like Seo Jun Young,” embarrassing Boom and causing the other guests to explode in laughter.
Seo Jun Young continued, “I began liking her after I listened to “So Cool” all summer. When I saw them perform on stage, all I saw was her.”
When asked what he liked about Bora so much, he responded, “I like everything…”, creating a romantic atmosphere on set.
Also on the episode were Goo Eun Ae, MBLAQ‘s Mir, and more.

Mir and Go Eun Ah admitted that they themselves didn’t know who was who when they first saw the photos online, and that “Even our mom didn’t know who was who.”
Also on the episode were Goo Eun Ae, Seo Jun Young, Bora, Ahn Jung Hoon, Kim Min Hee, and more.
SISTAR member Bora‘s sexy performance caused quite the stir on the set of ‘Strong Heart‘.

Seo Jun Young revealed that he had personally asked the ‘Strong Heart’ staff members to pair him with Bora, and Bora later shared, “I prepared a little something for Seo Jun Young.”
She removed her jacket and ran towards MC Lee Seung Gi to perform a sexy dance with him. She then ran towards Seo Jun Young to dance with him as well, and the actor could not stop grinning from ear to ear.
Seo Jun Young responded to her dance with “Thank You“, and Kim Young Chul remarked, “I’ve never seen Lee Seung Gi smile like that before, revealing so much of his gums,” which caused the other guests on set to explode in laughter.
Many of the guests that featured on the episode revealed that they were using stage names, including Mir. The idol admitted that his real birth name was Bang Chul Yong, and the guests grew curious as to what Go Eun Ah’s real name could be.
“My story may sound appalling, but my agency CEO really liked Go So Young and Shim Eun Ha at the time of my debut. So, we combined their names to create ‘Go Eun Ha’ for me,” she began.
“So we decided on ‘Go Eun Ha’, but a reporter mistakenly published a story on me, spelling my name ‘Go Eun Ah’, and I’ve been Go Eun Ah ever since,” she explained. She could not hide her disappointment as she continued to say, “But they said that the ‘H’ needed to be included in my name in order for me to be successful…”
Mir also said that his story was a bit appalling. “Rain sunbaenim came into our rehearsal room, pointing at me and said, “Hey, you’re Mir”, and left,” he said. “Later I looked it up, and it is a Korean word meaning ‘dragon’.”

Bora had previously teased everyone when she stated, “There is one male here who has visited our dorm before and that person is a male idol.”
She continued, “We are comfortable around each other so sometimes we walk around naked. Of course, when this person visited we were wearing clothes, but it was still awkward and embarrassing.”
It was later revealed that this man was none other than Leeteuk. Leeteuk explained, “It was when we used to film for the show that involved us raising babies.”
Male viewers could not hide their envy as they stated, “Leeteuk must have done a lot of good things in his past life”, “He must have been so happy”, and “I wish I could visit SISTAR’s dorm.”
