New Fandom (Again)

Konnichiwa!!!
Minna genki kai?
New fandom = New spirit?? Ahahaha.... maybe ^_-
Do you guys know who are those people? Do you? Do you? If you said it's Shinhwa, then you are completely right. Those people are Shinhwa! and Shinhwa is my newest fandom. Ahahaha....
I always said that I am not into Korean, I don't know and don't want to know anything about Korea; and still like that until at this very moment I am not into it but Shinhwa!!
It was two days ago when I (again out of my boredom) suddenly bumped into this Discovery of Love dorama. I do not into Korean dorama actually but this dorama dragged not only to watch Korean dorama but also into Shinhwa. Usually, when my sister and I watched some Korean dorama I would fall asleep instantly, but this Discovery of Love dorama. Somehow, I like it so much how Eric Mun played the Kang Tae-ha character on that dorama. In my opinion, Eric played Kang Tae-ha character real good. He really a good actor. No wonder he won the best actor for the dorama. Discovery of Love was the first time I saw Eric in a dorama (I ever saw Eric in Running Man before) and I fell to him instantly (am I a girl that is so easy to fall in love? I don't think so). Now, Shinhwa become one of my obsessions. Ahahahahaa.... I am late! I know and I don't care.
Shinhwa is not a new for me actually, it was not I just new Shinhwa two days ago. Several years ago, I already knew that there's a Korean boyband named Shinhwa, but I did not pay any attention on them since I am not into Korean (especially Korean boyband and dorama). It was about two years ago, I saw Shinhwa  in Running Man show; Shinhwa was really good in that show. They beat Running Man team almost in every game in the show. Actually, that was the first time this Shinhwa group catches my attention; their move when they playing a game was synchronize one to another, it was like they really understand each other position. No wonder they beat Running Man team. However it was just end like that. I like the way they played the games in the Running Man and that's it. Nothing more. 
However, two days ago was different to Running Man show; it was Eric Mun who dragged me to find more about him. Eric Mun really an attractive person furthermore when he played a character in a dorama. His acting skill is really good.
Later I knew that Eric is the leader of Shinhwa. Not much I knew about Shinhwa and Eric Mun yet, since I am a newbie in Shinhwa fandom. Thanks to wikipedia.com which gave me enough important information about Shinhwa. Shinhwa as most of people knew consisted of six members, Eric Mun, Jun Jin, Lee Min-woo, Andy Lee, Kim Dong-wan, Shin Hye-sung. They were debuted on 24 March 1998 under SM entertainment but then they decided to quit and moved to other agency and now they are under their own company, ShinCom Entertainment. If we pay attention on this Shinhwa boyband, Kinki Kids was just one year earlier debuted then Shinhwa and the average age of the members were same with Kinki Kids. Eric was born on th 16 of February 1979 on the other hand Domoto Tsuyoshi was born on 10th of April 1979 (I wonder why I really into those 79's generation lately). 
Eric Mun is the leader and the CEO of ShinCom Entertainment with Lee Minwoo as his co-CEO. According to what I have seen about Shinhwa, Eric really a good leader for this group. I ever seen a show with Shinhwa as guest, in the show they sharing about their feeling as Shinhwa. Shinhwa is one of the most successful boyband; they won so many awards and got number one on chart. Shinhwa is the longgest live boyband in Korea with no member out; they are a legend (just like their name). This boyband is really something. Shinhwa just like any other existence in this world, they ever had a hard time also. There's a story that I love the most about Shinhwa (Eric Mun especially) that is the story of how Eric got Shinhwa members back together after the long hiatus of Shinhwa. 
The long hiatus, because of military service (around 2008), that has made the members drifted apart. They were too busy with their ownself activities after they done with the military services. Eric as the leader of the group, it's his responsibility to get his members back together again. They are one unity, as Shinhwa, not an individual; he tried his best to get his friends back together. One day when he got back home, out of his stressful mind he called his father, asking his father how his father maintain their family to still together because he felt like he was failed as a leader. Later on after he had a phone call with his father, he met each of his members personally and talked to them and the result now, they are back together again as Shinhwa. And they were just released their XII WE album last February and they have their Asian Tour also this year.  
Eric Mun really a great leader no wonder he also chosen as CEO of the company. Despite his naughtiness (love to tease the members), he is a thoughtful, capable, and responsible person. I like this Eric Mun very much. I do not know much about him yet, I want to know more about him and all of Shinhwa members. If you are the Shinhwa fans then let's be friend ne, I really want to know more about this group. This wonderful group. This Legend!
The last but not least, this is from SHINHWA OFFICIAL on youtube. Like it very much!!! Hope you enjoy it too ^^
