SHINee’s Minho opened up about his experience in the military, sharing both the struggles and the valuable lessons he learned during his time in the Marines.

On November 8, Minho appeared as a guest on KBS 2TV’s The Seasons - Lee Young Ji's Rainbow alongside other guests like Tomorrow X Together, Touched, and Yoo Byung Jae.

During the show, Lee Young Ji asked Minho if his time in the Marines was difficult, to which Minho admitted, "Honestly, I wanted to go somewhere with real training, a place where I could push myself to my limits. But from the second day, I started regretting it. I thought, 'Why did I do this to myself?' But looking back, it was a valuable experience because I worked hard."

Minho also revealed that whenever he faces challenges in his life, he finds comfort in singing military songs in his head.

He recalled a moment when he was promoting his solo album and wondered if it was okay to sing a military song.

He then passionately performed Run Like a Lion, a song he fondly associates with his time in the military.

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.
