Manila Bulletin | Super Junior's Donghae member expresses desire to star in Pinoy teleserye

By Yugel Losorata
April 18, 2010 | 1:43pm

Having seen the mob that welcomed his group right at NAIA and the thousands of screaming fans who trooped to the Big Dome to watch them perform, the acknowledged most popular member of bigtime Korean act Super Junior must have found the prospect of appearing in a Philippine teleserye as a next best move.

Both the media and the boy band's supporters present during a presscon at EDSA Plaza Hotel last Saturday reacted in cheerful agreement.

“I wish to do a TV drama in the Philippines,” said Donghae who is arguably the most famous among the 13-member flagship group of the current K-pop (Korean pop) fever.

From the moment one of the boys uttered, “We’re very excited to come here for the first time,” every word that tumbled out of the light-skinned Asian stars was anticipated as it passed through the interpreter's tongue.

One of the boys amused the starstruck crowd by speaking in straight English. “We just pray to God before we go to the stage,” he said when asked what’s that one thing they do before a performance.

Super Junior delivered their “Super Show 2” concert that same night, making it extra special since the Philippines is the last leg in their 15-show “Asia Concert Tour Live.”

“Thanks for all the support and we hope to visit again,” added Donghae.

The first K-pop group to have a Gold record in the Philippines, Super Junior released the “Super Show 2 Live Album” last February. Their music video for the song “Sorry, Sorry” simultaneously topped different charts on leading music channel MYX.

The co-producer of the Super Junior concert, MYX is also airing a special titled “Asia MYX: Super Junior Special” today, April 19, Monday, at 8 p.m. The feature showcases exclusive footage from the Super Junior press conference and the group’s sold out three-hour show, along with an interview conducted by VJ Iya Villania. Repeat airings are scheduled on April 21 (9:30 a.m.), April 22 (4 p.m.), and April 25 (12 m.n. and 11 a.m.).

What is life like among the members of Girls' Generation?

SNSD visited the set of KBS 2TV ‘Win Win’ recently and exposed many secrets about their lives with each other. Many netizens have been speculating on the nine members’ relationships with each other, and now the girls are finally revealing the truth!

The girls admitted that a few people had awkward relationships while holding hands and claiming that they “are [now] close.” One relationship that had been icy at first was the connection between Hyoyeon and Taeyeon. Hyoyeon confessed that because Taeyeon was the same age as her, she felt extremely uncomfortable around her during the beginnings of their SNSD days. She admitted, “Every time I ate with Taeyeon, I felt so uncomfortable that I didn’t know whether I was eating from my mouth or my nose.” Taeyeon, who had confirmed her previously awkward relationship with Hyoyeon in a previous appearance on a radio show, agreed to this statement and said that she had once felt the same.

Tiffany then revealed that she had once felt equally as uncomfortable around Seohyun. This surprised everyone in the studio, including the other SNSD members, as this was the first time that Tiffany had ever mentioned anything about it. Tiffany went on to explain that when she had to share a room with Seohyun, she “felt pressured to set a good example to Seohyun as an older person. [I was] scared that Seohyun would turn bad due to [me], [so I] used to go into [our] room as late as possible [to avoid her.]” Tiffany was extremely nervous about her behavior due to Seohyun’s reputation as a good girl who follows all the rules.

During this episode of ‘WinWin,’ Tiffany will also be speaking of her reactions towards rumors of her being bullied in SNSD, and revealing the girls’ secrets to successful teamwork. In addition, the girls will talk about their drinking habits in regards to their occasional drinks of alcohol. Be sure not to miss this episode, which is set to be broadcast on April 20!
