We are going to start with Suho from EXO who was born as Kim Joon-myun on May 22nd, 1991, in Seoul, South Korea. On February 15th, 2012, Suho was introduced as the 10th member of EXO. He is also the leader of EXO and vocalist of the group. Meanwhile, Jung Eun-ji (real name Jung Hye-rim) was born in August 1993. She was born in Haeundae, Busan, South Korea. She debuted in April 2011 as a member of Apink. In Apink, she is the main vocalist. Discussing their closeness, Suho was invited to KBS’ Cool FM’s radio program Jung Eun-ji’s Music Plaza in July 2019. Suho discussed his friendship with APink’s Eunji who is a senior but two years younger than him. Suho said that he and Eunji first met during the We Got Married program while staring by Son Na-eun who was a member of Apink and Taemin, a member of SHINee. They introduced themselves to each other and slowly got to know each other. After that, two months later, the two of them were engaged in the same project, namely borrowing voices for an animated film. And both of them talked a lot about music to get to know each other. In this article, Channel-Korea will provide you with a detailed rundown of EXO’s Leader Suho and Apink’s main vocalist Eunji’s closeness. So, stay tuned!
Eunji and Suho in Taemin-Naeun’s We Got Married Episode
One of the episodes of We Got Married was a showcase of SHINee’s Taemin and APink’s Naeun’s wedding ceremony. A special thing about the wedding ceremony was that they also invited a number of close friends of Taemin and Naeun. In the Episode, EXO’s Kai and Suho and APink’s Eunji were also present. The wedding ceremony was conducted in traditional Korean apparel. Taemin and Naeun could be seen wearing traditional Korean surrogate clothes. Kai, Suho, and Eunji welcomed the appearance of Taemin and Naeun with a joyful feeling. Because Naeun looked very nervous, Taemin tried to calm her down by praising her. “You look like a noble’s daughter that no one can reach,” Taemin said. Not forgetting, Kai congratulated the bride and groom.
Eunji and Suho in Saving Santa
In December, there were many Christmas-themed films released, one of which was Saving Santa produced by Gateway Films and Prana Animation Studios. The film was also released in Korea with a dub in Korean. Like the American animated films released in Korea before, such as Despicable Me 2, Saving Santa also had a celebrity as a dubber. This time, MC Shin Dong-yup, EXO members Suho and APink’s Eunji were lined up as dubbers. On Thursday (11/7/13), the three celebrities filled the voices of the main cast of the British film production. This is certainly a new experience, especially for Suho and Eunji. Suho voiced Bernard’s original voice dubbed by Martin Freeman, Eunji filled Shiny’s voice in the original film dubbed by Ashley Tisdale. While Shin Dong-yup voiced an evil character named Neville whose original version was filled by Tim Curry. Saving Santa was directed by Leon Joosen and Aaron Seelman.
Suho’s Appearance in KBS’ Cool FM’s Jung Eun-ji’s Music Plaza
EXO’s Suho appeared on KBS’ Cool FM radio broadcast Jung Eun-ji’s Music Plaza in July 2019. In the broadcast from July 2nd, Suho spoke of his friendship with Apink’s Jung Eun-ji, “We first met when Apink’s Son Na-eun and SHINee’s Taemin appeared on We Got Married. We introduced ourselves and then made friends, and two months later, we borrowed our voices in an animated film together. We talked a lot about music and then became close.” One listener commented, “Can you release music together,” to which Jung Eun-ji replied, “Someday we will have to release a song together.” Suho added, “Sounds good.” Jung Eun-ji then asked about EXO’s meeting with President Donald Trump at the Blue House. Previously, EXO was invited in a banquet held by President Moon Jae-in to welcome President Donald Trump at the Blue House on July 2nd, as a K-Pop representative. Suho commented, “We met with the President of the United States, Donald Trump, but not because of the power of EXO, it seems (we were invited) because of the power of K-Pop. K-Pop is loved a lot all over the world, and I’m sure (Ivanka Trump) also likes a lot (K-Pop groups), but it seems like she really likes EXO. I heard President Trump’s grandchildren are also EXO fans, and we also met with advisor Ivanka Trump at the PyeongChang Olympics, so that seems to be the reason we got this chance.” He continued, “This is a little off the topic, but it was President Trump who offered to shake hands with us. We introduced ourselves to each other, but because of his tweet that day, reporters asked him about Panmunjom. He laughed and answered, ‘I don’t know either but it seems interesting.’ He then asked us, ‘Do you understand what I’m saying?’ So we said that we knew. I am shocked. He said a word that I usually hear in movies easily at an international event, so I was very surprised.” President Donald Trump previously invited Kim Jong-un to the Korean Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) via Twitter. Suho then told me about his nickname, “SM Entertainment’s ‘Passion Group’ consisting of Yunho, Minho, and me. Although I am still lacking enthusiasm compared to the other two, I accept it.” When asked if he wanted to be called by another nickname, Suho answered that he liked being known as the “EXO leader,” but it would be more fun if he was also known as Kim Jun-myeon as an actor. https://www.instagram.com/p/BzZurS3AHwB/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link On this occasion, Suho who opened an Instagram account at the end of 2018 then revealed the reason behind his Instagram account username. The “Love Shot” singer’s account has the username @kimjuncotton. It was revealed, apparently, @kimjuncotton was not the only username chosen by Suho. The owner’s real name Kim Jun-myeon originally wanted to use his name as the lyrics, SH20 and add the date of his birth, but the username had already been taken by fans. “I thought about the name ‘EXO Guardian’ (Suho means guardian or protector in Korean) because that is the meaning of Suho but it sounds like a game character. I also had a hard time choosing between ‘kimjunnoodle’ and ‘kimjuncotton,’” he continued. Meanwhile, Suho and other EXO members were also busy with a solo concert titled “EXO PLANET #5 – The EXplOration.” The concerts were held on July 19-21 and July 26-28, 2019. That was all the information about EXO’s Leader Suho and Apink’s main vocalist Eunji’s closeness. Don’t forget to share your thoughts in the comment section below!
