However, none of them were able to steal Jung Il Woo’s heart, as the actor consistently selected IU without hesitation, even going against his original statement when he admitted he preferred the lack of double eyelids.
When asked why he chose IU, Jung Il Woo explained, “While I was filming the drama ’49 Days’, I felt like I could really relate to the lyrics of her songs.”
The actor then sent a video message to the singer shyly saying, “IU, I’m enjoying your music and I’m rooting for you. Please continue to do well.”

On the May 24th episode of Mnet‘s ‘Beatles Code 2‘, MC Shindong asked Sung Eun, “Is it true that your brother is close to Big Bang’s T.O.P?”
Sung Eun answered, “He was a friend of my brother’s when we were younger. Seung Hyun (T.O.P’s birth name) oppa came over to our house a lot.”
When asked if he was chubbier back then, she answered, “He was, but he was attractive then too. He used to rap to himself everywhere he went.”
The curious MCs then asked if she had a personal crush on him, and she responded honestly by saying, “A little bit…”
The string of questions didn’t end there, as the MCs wanted to know if T.O.P still recognizes her. “He should,” she said. “I saw him once after he debuted, and he recognized me. He told me I grew up quite a bit.”

Upon hearing this, Kim Heung Kook said, “Haha is doing well but if he meets a girl he could do even better. I am going to be a couple-manager. If you have trouble call me.”
Kim Tae Won advised Haha by saying, “I personally feel that you do not meet some one that is right to start off with, but that as you continue your relationship, you compromise [and grow to be right for one another] until you die.”

On the May 28th episode of KBS2 TV‘s talk show ‘Hello‘, female solo artists Ivy, Baek Ji Young andAilee shared their concerns as well as listening to the worries of the public.
Ivy stated, “I’m more comfortable now that I’m doing a ballad instead of a dance song. When I dance, I lose my breath.” When the MCs asked her, “Why didn’t you do a dance song this time around?”, Ivy joked, “Because I am too old,” bringing laughter on set with her frank answer.
Baek Ji Young, who is older than Ivy and recently made her comeback with a dance track, remarked, “If you say that while sitting next to me, what does that make me?” Ivy tried to relieve the situation by adding, “Honestly, no good dance songs were coming in. So when I heard ‘Torn Heart’, I chose to do that song,” explaining the real reason behind her not going with a dance concept this time.
Ivy also revealed, “I’ve been stressed out because I keep gaining weight lately. Because I’m the type to gain excess fat in my belly, I don’t lost weight that well. I guess that’s what happens when you are over thirty,” which once again caused Baek Ji Young to become flustered.
Legendary idol group Shinhwa guest-featured on the May 1st broadcast of KBS 2TV‘s ‘Hello‘ to listen to the concerns of the contestants.
A man, who became an anti-Shinhwa fan due to his girlfriend’s excessive love for Shinhwa, made an appearance on the episode to share his dilemma about his girlfriend who was an avid fan of member Minwoo.
He opened up by saying, “My girlfriend doesn’t come out of her house often, ever since Shinhwa made their recent comeback.”
“Other groups break up so easily, so why is it that Shinhwa keeps making comebacks?” he asked, causing the audience members to explode into laughs.
MC Lee Young Ja then suggested he shake the hands of the Shinhwa members and formally say hello. Agreeing to this, the guest shook everyone’s hands with the exception of Minwoo.
Minwoo was his girlfriend’s favorite member, and Minwoo was able to easily spot her in the audience. He went towards her, and her boyfriend demanded that the two separate.
“This is so irritating,” he blurted, seeing his girlfriend sit side by side with Minwoo.
“My girlfriend gives me random pop quizzes on Shinhwa,” he continued. “She says she’ll give me a kiss every time I get the answers right.”
The MCs then proceeded to ask him questions about Shinhwa, including Minwoo’s birthday, and he was able to recite the date without any hesitation, thanks to the experience he gained from his girlfriend’s pop quizzes.
The guest was then handed photos of the Shinhwa members, and given permission to draw on their faces. “I’m sorry,” he said, as he joyfully drew on Minwoo’s face. When finished, he mercilessly crumbled Minwoo’s face in half.
The segment begins around the 9:00 mark below.

“I was looking at all of our shoes when I thought a specific pair with ggalchang in them were mine,” Minwoo remarked. “But the shoes actually belonged to Eric. I asked why he would even use these, when he’s over 180 cm tall.”
“I asked my stylist, what Dongwan and I were supposed to do then,” Minwoo blurted, expressing his frustrations as Eric and Jun Jin are the taller members of the group, while Minwoo and Donghwan are the shortest.
Minwoo then revealed that Eric offered an off-the-wall explanation for his insoles, saying, “These are the shoes of an actor,” causing the audience members laugh at Eric’s absurd explanation.
