Singer and actor Eric revealed his experience at a convenience store.

On December 12, Eric left a message on his Instagram, saying, "It just happened at a convenience store" along with a picture.

According to the article, Eric was trying to buy beer at a convenience store, and a part-timer asked him to show his ID. When Eric replied that he was in a situation where he didn't have an ID, the pat-timer refused to sell the beer to him.

Eric said, "I bought it here often," and emphasized, "I'm forty-three." The part-timer seemed to have noticed only then, and finished the calculation by asking, "Do you need a plastic bag?"

In the photo he uploaded, cans of beer was inside the plastic bag which proves that his purchase was successful. Eric showed his wit by posting the hashtag "No alcohol sales to minors."

Eric , who was born in February 1979 and is 43 this year, cheerfully told the story of a part-timer at a convenience store he often visits who misunderstood him as a minor and almost got his ID checked.

A netizen who read the article commented, "Didn't you search Naver and show it?", and Eric replied, "Please do a search for Eric on Naver."

As the leader of the group Shinhwa, he is the oldest among the six members, with Lee Min Woo, Kim Dong Wan, and Shin Hye Sung the same age.

Eric, who debuted in 1998 with Shinhwa's 1st album 'Resolver', and has been active as a singer and actor.

Singer Steve Yoo (Yoo Seung Jun), who has been banned from entering South Korea for over two decades, continues to express his love for the country and his desire to return.

On March 21, Yoo Seung Jun posted a video on his personal account along with a cryptic caption, saying, “When one door closes, another opens. When one door opens, another closes.”

He continued, “Just because a door has opened doesn’t mean I should leave, and just because one is closed doesn’t mean I shouldn’t try to open it. I am simply walking the path my father told me to take. Whether people acknowledge it or not no longer matters to me.”

His hashtags also caught attention, as he included “I love you,” “Bless you,” “South Korea,” “Loved ones,” “Everything will be okay,” and “Korea.” Fans couldn’t help but wonder if he was once again hinting at his hope to return.

Just a few days earlier, on March 18, Yoo Seung Jun had also posted a nostalgic message about his time in South Korea.

He wrote, “December 7, 1989—13 years old (1st year of middle school). The school I attended until the day before I immigrated to the U.S. in Songpa-gu, Oju Middle School, is still the same.”

Along with his message, he shared a video of the school's walls and playground, revealing, “One of my fans filmed my middle school, which I attended until I left for the U.S., and sent me the video.”

The clip also showed scenes of his elementary school, making fans reminisce about his past in Korea.

Yoo Seung Jun was one of the most popular artists in South Korea during the 1990s, but his career took a sharp turn in 2002 when he unexpectedly left for the U.S., renounced his Korean citizenship, and became a U.S. citizen.

This led to widespread backlash, as many saw it as an attempt to evade mandatory military service. As a result, the South Korean government banned him from entering the country.

Since then, he has repeatedly taken legal action in hopes of lifting the ban. Now, with his continued efforts and heartfelt messages about Korea, many are wondering—will he finally be allowed back after 23 years?
