SHINee's Onew opened up about the tough time he faced with anxiety and loneliness during the six months he couldn’t speak after his vocal cord surgery.

On July 27th, the Gamsung Detective channel posted a video with TWICE's Jeongyeon and SHINee's Onew

In the video, Onew explained why he joined the show, saying, "Since Jeongyeon is hosting, I thought it would be a good opportunity."

He also mentioned, "I’m currently doing solo work with a new agency and am in the middle of a fan meeting and an Asia tour."

Known to SHINee fans as the 'boring member,' Onew playfully responded to Jeongyeon's laughter, saying, "I hear I’m known for dad jokes. Why call me boring when you’re laughing?"

Onew shared a personal story about a special glove he has. He said, "This is a pitcher's glove. Around 2011, I had vocal cord surgery and couldn’t speak for about six months."

He continued, "During that time, I bought this glove and threw the ball silently. It was like a friend that helped me through my anxious and lonely days."

Onew explained, "When you first get a glove, it’s very stiff. I used a hammer to soften it." Jeongyeon responded, "Fans will really appreciate this. Thank you," showing her gratitude.

Actor Lee Min Ho recently shared an unforgettable and embarrassing moment from his early career, revealing how he became a “falling star” at his first Baeksang Arts Awards.

On the December 25th episode of You Quiz on the Block (Episode 274), Lee Min Ho made a guest appearance and reflected on his rise to fame.

The actor, known for his iconic role as Goo Jun Pyo in Boys Over Flowers, won the Best New Actor award at the Baeksang Arts Awards, but it wasn’t just his victory that grabbed attention.

Lee Min Ho recalled, "I was attending the Baeksang for the first time, and I was so excited. Since I wasn’t going as Goo Jun Pyo, but as Lee Min Ho, I styled my hair in a perm and was ready to go." However, things took an unexpected turn when he tripped and fell on the red carpet.

He sighed, recalling, "That day, I fell. I fell and created so many memes. Even now, I look back and think, 'How did I walk that quickly on the red carpet?'"

Laughing at his own clumsiness, he admitted, "I was moving at the speed of light, no composure, no focus. Honestly, more than the joy of winning the award, that day was chaotic and so embarrassing for me."

Though his win was a highlight, Lee Min Ho humorously shared that the incident of tripping overshadowed the excitement of his achievement.

It’s safe to say that while the fall became a funny meme, it also became a lesson in humility for the actor, and a moment that fans still remember to this day.
