Shinhwa’s Kim Dong Wan just revealed a blast from the past—his awkward blind date with none other than Lee Hyori!

On the February 4 episode of SBS’s "Dolsing Fourmen," Kim Dong Wan shared an unexpected story about his high school days, leaving everyone surprised!

He opened up about a blind date with Lee Hyori, saying, "When I was in high school at Whimoon High, I was in a band, and Lee Hyori was already famous for being pretty at Seomun Girls' High School." He explained, "A friend from another school said she was into music too, and thought we’d get along, so he set it up."

But things didn’t go as planned. Kim Dong Wan revealed, "We didn’t really click."

This led to a funny moment when Tak Jae-hoon joked, "You didn’t like each other, but still kept your pride." The comment had everyone laughing out loud.

Kim Dong Wan shared more details, saying, "At the time, I wore white pants because of the band, and Lee Hyori wore hip-hop pants. I wasn’t a fan of hip-hop style and preferred the Gangbuk style, so I just couldn’t appreciate her fashion."

Later, Lee Sang-min asked, "How did you both end up in Fin.K.L and Shinhwa? Did you recognize each other right away?" Kim Dong Wan replied, "Of course, I knew."

Tak Jae Hoon couldn’t resist teasing him and asked, "Did you talk about the blind date?" Kim Dong Wan replied, "No, we just said, 'Long time no see, hi,' and that was it."

He added, "Fin.K.L became super popular right away, but Shinhwa wasn’t there yet, so it was a bit awkward. By the time we did our second album, we became closer."

But Tak Jae Hoon wasn’t done and joked, "You’re just embarrassed because you got rejected!" The entire room burst into laughter, and it seems like the awkward date has become a hilarious memory for everyone involved.

Kim Soo Hyun’s recent controversy is now affecting his appearance on MBC’s Good Day, with some viewers demanding that he leave the show.

On March 12, a post titled "ㄱㅅㅎ should step down" appeared on the viewer feedback section of Good Day, sparking discussion online.

The post’s author wrote, "G-Dragon’s show is supposed to be for fun, so what’s this controversy with ㄱㅅㅎ? He should voluntarily step down," directly calling for Kim Soo Hyun’s removal from the program.

Good Day is a music project variety show led by G-Dragon, where he collaborates with well-known figures from different fields to create a song representing the year. Kim Soo Hyun, who shares the same birth year as G-Dragon, was added to the show as part of the ’88 line, winning fans over with his friendly and lighthearted image.

However, things took a turn when Kim Soo Hyun became embroiled in controversy regarding allegations of a past romantic relationship with the late Kim Sae Ron when she was still a minor. While his agency strongly denied the claims, calling them "false information," additional photos showing affectionate moments between the two—such as a cheek kiss—along with text messages sent by Kim Sae Ron, have only fueled the public’s doubts.

Although the viewer feedback post did not mention his full name, Kim Soo Hyun is the only cast member whose initials match "ㄱㅅㅎ," making it clear that the post was referring to him.

Meanwhile, Kim Soo Hyun is also set to star in Disney+’s upcoming drama Knock-Off, with the first season scheduled to be released soon. However, with his controversy continuing to spread, even Knock-Off is facing growing concerns.
