SHINee member Onew opened up about his gratitude toward his members, who stood by him while he took a break for his health.
On the November 2nd episode of MBC's Point of Omniscient Interfere, Onew gave fans a glimpse into his daily life. Starting his day with a manager he’s known for 19 years, Onew shared, “People say I look healthier and more relaxed these days.”
After taking a break from activities in June last year, Onew returned in May, refreshed and ready. His manager shared, “Watching him struggle was hard, and everyone around him was concerned. Instead of constantly asking if he was okay, we just spent time together, enjoying meals and exercising. When Onew reached out first, I knew he was getting better. All I want is for him to be happy.”
When Jeon Hyun Moo asked if the SHINee members supported him during his recovery, Onew smiled and said, “They really did. They even marked a spot for me, saying they'd wait. It meant so much to me, and I felt truly cared for. They told me to take my time and come back when I was ready.”
Song Eun-i praised how SHINee had all matured, while Jeon Hyun Moo added, “They’re such wonderful friends.”
At Onew’s recent fan concert, flowers from his SHINee members filled the venue. Onew shared that his members often send flowers or come to cheer him on in person.
When Hong Hyun Hee asked if the other members’ parents also support him, Onew revealed, “Our parents are close and keep in touch. They even meet up sometimes, and they come to concerts to watch.”
