Super Junior Eunhyuk’s Cute and Witty Sister Draws Attention

Super Junior Eunhyuk‘s older sister made a surprise appearance on “Barefoot Friends.”
 
On the episode of “Barefoot Friends” that aired on June 9, the cast members visited Eunhyuk and Kim Hyun Joong‘s houses before leaving on their MT with special guest Lee Hyori.
 
Previously, the cast members visited Yoon Jong Shin, Uee, and Kim Bum Soo‘s homes without any warning to the family members inside. The same went for Eunhyuk as his family was very surprised at first when the cast members arrived.
 
Eunhyuk’s beautiful sister especially garnered attention, even more so for her humor and wit. The cast members playfully suggested that she go on a date with Kim Bum Soo and her answer was, “I think dating just by phone would be good,” which made everyone explode with laughter.
When she was asked, “What kind of brother is Eunhyuk to you?” she answered, “A rich brother,” which also drew much laughter.
 
Meanwhile, during the episode, Lee Hyori discovered what looked like couple rings, which made Eunhyuk very flustered!

Why did Lee Joon spend almost $900 on teddy bears?

 
 
Apparently, Lee Joon relieves stress by 'communicating' with teddy bears.
 
The MBLAQ member shared his strange tendency on the June 10th episode of Mnet's 'Beatles Code 2' when MC Tak Jae Hoon asked Lee Joon about his reputation for being "stingy." Lee Joon responded, "I'm not anymore." When the MCs told him that stinginess usually lasts forever, he admitted, "I've gotten a lot better." They continued to tease him by asking him about his recent purchases.

Lee Joon said, "Recently, I spent about 1,000,000 KRW (approximatley 881 USD)." The MCs laughed and asked if that amount was for the entire year or a few months. He surprised everyone by saying, "In about two days. I bought a lot of teddy bears. I bought in bulk." He explained, "I used to get rid of stress by sleeping, but recently, I wasn't feeling refreshed when I got up. I saw one of the teddy bears my fans bought me, and after I put it on my bed, I slept a lot better. Ever since I got the teddy bears, I feel like they ask me if I slept well, and I feel better."

The MCs then said, "That's a little weird," and Mir added, "When Lee Joon gets home, the first thing he does is greet his teddy bears."

Lee Joon admits he and Oh Yeon Seo haven't kept in touch

 
Lee Joon admitted that he hasn't really kept in touch with his former on-screen wife Oh Yeon Seo after their 'We Got Married' days.
 
Last year, Lee Joon had been an unintended victim when the Oh Yeon Seo-Lee Jang Woo scandal broke out, since he was the 'husband' of the actress on 'We Got Married' at the time. The on-screen couple ultimately stepped down from the show due to 'schedule issues', following a mysterious message Lee Joon wrote on his fancafe that left fans wondering if he was referring to his marriage on 'We Got Married.
 
On the 10th's episode of Mnet's 'Beatles Code 2', in reference to these past issues, Shindong asked him, "Did you get over the difficult situations? ". Lee Joon seemed a little confused at first, responding, "What? The difficult..situations?". Shindong continued, "You received a lot of pain". It was Mir who understood the reference first as he burst into laughter, and Lee Joon was only seconds behind, laughing himself.

Shindong asked, "Do you contact Oh Yeon Seo?", and Lee Joon stammered, "Uh..Well.. We don't really contact each other.

Shindong explained why he brought up the topic, stating, "Weren't you affected negatively by it?". Lee Joon looked a bit confused about how he should respond, murmuring, "Well, I guess in a way, yes..."

"So after all that,you had to step down from the program," Shindong said. However, although the MCs might have thought the situation was 'difficult', Lee Joon revealed that the couple ending their run was actually good timing for him, as he stated, "But back then, I was filming my movie, so I think it ended at a good time as I was able to focus on my movie."

Seungyeon teases Jinwoon with questions about his future plans with Go Jun Hee

 
Like everyone else these days, Seungyeon couldn't help but tease Jinwoon about his 'wife' Go Jun Hee.
 
 
The pair had an interview with MBC's 'Section TV Entertainment Relay' for their dubbing gig on 'Epic'. Seungyeon used to be one of the reporters on 'Entertainment Relay', so she decided to put her previous skills to use by playing the role of the interviewer and turned to Jinwoon to ask, "What kind of person is Go Jun Hee?".
 
 
Jinwoon answered, "She's honest and easy-going, but she's also very shy". He had a huge grin on his face, so Seungyeon teased, "You're really in love. How far have you gone, and what are your plans for the future?".

Her sudden questioning about their future plans left Jinwoon a bit flustered, but he quickly recovered to wittily answer, "We currently have no plans for children", making them both burst into laughter.
