120813 TTBY 1st Press Conference

Minho: "I always thought of Sulli like a little sister because I saw her since she was just in elementary school and training at the same management company as I'm with. But with the project and shooting scenes together, we've gotten a lot closer."
"Sulli is playing a character who likes me but who I don't like but over time, my character starts to open up to her more.I wasn't sure if I could do a good job because she feels like a little sister to me but now that I'm seeing her every day, I can definitely feel some romantic feelings like the character would."
"We filmed a kiss scene recently and we had to shoot it 15 times. I didn't know how to go about it at first because I was on the giving end of it, so I needed some confidence. It was quite awkward and nerve-wracking at first but after 10 times, Sulli was really comfortable with it and didn't make a big deal about it. So I tried to follow her example." "My character is a little rash and cold so sometimes I'm like that to her in real life, which I have to apologize for. But after a month of shooting together, I think we have fun on our days on set together."

First Kiss in TTBY

  • Version 1


On August 14, upcoming SBS drama “To the Beautiful You” revealed behind the scene snapshots of Sulli and Minho‘s much anticipated kiss scene. The revealed pictures show Minho putting Sulli up against a wall and trying to kiss her without a warning. These snapshots stir much curiosity in excited fans about whether Minho has already found out Sulli is in fact a girl or not.
At the filming set, both Sulli and Minho seemed nervous and fluttered at the same time about upcoming first kiss scene. They locked lips 15 times.While Sulli focused on acting without much trouble, her lack of shyness caused Minho to be even more shy and awkward .A staff member commented “Sulli and Minho have this fantastic chemistry. They know what each other want just by looking at each other.”

  • Version 2
In the images, Sulli is shown with her back against a glass wall.Minho is seen with one hand on her shoulder, his face leaning towards hers, before he turns his head with his eyes closed, their lips merely inches apart.

The kiss scene was filmed on August 4 in Gyeonggi-do’s Gapyeong at a country club. Shooting the scene late at night at 2 in the morning, the two were said to have shown some initial nervousness before the shoot but were able to successfully complete the scene.

Producers revealed that the scene took about 15 times to perfect. Perhaps to the surprise of many, it was actually Minho that shyly turned red while Sulli showed complete focus during the scene. 

Producers stated, “Sulli and Minho are showing perfect teamwork. As they’ve both been working together every single day, I feel like they’ve gotten closer”. This drama will provide a heart fluttering romance that will make the hearts of our viewer

1208027 TTBY 2nd Press Conference 



Minho: “Kang Taejun found out in episode four that Sulli is a girl. That’s why he tries to let her go but he also wants to protect her. He grows strong when he’s with her. Even though he’s cold, I think he’ll approach her somewhat tenderly and show his charm.” He added that since he knows Sulli is a girl but Hyunwo does not, it will make for an interesting love triangle.

When the second episode including the kiss scene with Sulli aired, Minho was in Japan so he was not able to watch it. Jonghyun asked Minho in the car how the episode ended so Minho told him it was with a surprise kiss with Sulli. Jonghyun replied, “You punk, you did that to Sulli?” and got worked up, calling Minho an obscene devil. He even teased Minho by asking if he made the NGs for the kiss on purpose. Not only have the members of SHINee scolded Minho for being cold to Sulli, Minho has received several calls from the members of Super Junior scolding him and asking if the cold treatment is Minho’s true intention. 



Sulli was asked if it felt awkward to start acting romantically with Minho who is from the same company as her. The actress playing the role of Goo Jaehee answered,
“It’s not a sunbae-hoobae relationship but it’s Goo Jaehee unrequitedly liking Kang Taejun.” She continued to say, “Whenever we do that sort of acting, Minho oppa leads me well,” and, “That’s why I just feel happy.” Sulli feels nervous whenever a scene with that type of skinship comes up. Sometimes before the filming, she asks Minho how he’s going to do it. If she doesn’t ask, he figures it out so it’s comfortable. 

All the actors and staff are working hard day and night on this new production. Minho expressed that, “Since many of the actors are around the same age, our team work is important. Even though we have a lot to film and we grow tired, we laugh and have fun playing around. The atmosphere of the set is nice so we are all working hard.” Lastly, he added, “I hope this becomes a piece of work that will remain as a beautiful memory.”

LEDApple’sKwangyeon revealed, “Sulli, who is currently striving to be an actress, is my role model. Although it was nerve wracking to work with Sulli and Minho sunbaenim, it is also an honor. We would like to continue to act through a good production with our sunbaenims.”

In the picture, they both seemed very close to each other, which gave viewers hope for their future relationship in the drama. In the drama, they did not tell each other of their feelings, but in the picture they seemed close.

TTBY Bed Scene


“To the Beautiful You” Sulli and Minho were shown cuddling in the same bed.

 The photo shows the two actors asleep together and it is clear that the two of them are slowly growing even closer. Viewers are expecting that the romance will continue.

One of the photos show the two of them surprised and looking towards the same place, perhaps indicating that someone was approaching. Their faces show their incredible surprise and fear at being discovered. Viewers are itching with curiosity as to what happens after this and whether Sulli’s disguise will yet again face the risk of being blown.

 The scene was shot last week at Gwangju. The two actors initially seemed awkward as this was the first scene that involved the two of them together in a bed for a length amount of time. However, the two of them got used to it relatively quickly and finished the scene successfully. 

This was the last shot of the day and they fought off their closing eyes and sleep, which would be natural after pulling an all-nighter and continuing well into the morning. It is said that the two of them remained professional and eager to film the scene well.

The production company said, “as the two get closer, we will show the two of them being more affectionate with each other.’ However, as this happens, everything around them will try to stop them and the forces will get stronger. Please watch on as they fight for their love.”

Considerate Taejoon

“To the Beautiful You” f(x)’s Sulli and SHINee’s Minho were spotted filming a lovely two-shot.

 The lovely cleansing two-shot was filmed at a camping site on August 30. The location shoot faced unexpected rain and wind, making the shoot harder than they originally thought. However, it is rumored that Sulli and Minho were able to keep focus on the story and pull off a great scene. They seemed like a couple in real life and though they originally experienced some awkwardness around this new scene, Minho was later seen caring about Sulli’s makeup and ensuring that she felt comfortable with the scene. 

 The production company said, “The two leads are getting ready to really get into the romance. The two of them seem to be getting closer in real life and really beginning to trust and respect each other, pulling off really great teamwork.”

CPR Kiss

SBS drama “To the Beautiful You” f(x)’s Sulli and SHINee’s Minho couple will finally get a CPR kiss scene.

The pictures show the sheer shock and panic on Minho’s face which only heightens the anticipation factor as well as the romantic love lines, indicating that Minho’s heart is really indeed opening up to Sulli in a lot of different ways. This is their second lip lock since Minho’s drunken habits back in the second episode. 

However, unlike Minho, Lee Hyun Woo is unable to actually put his lips to hers for the CPR. Both Minho and Lee Hyun Woo dive in to save her at the same time but Hyun Woo moves over for Minho to actually administer the CPR because he actually couldn’t do it. As audiences begin to expect fast advances on their love stories, the Sulli-Minho-Hyun Woo love triangle is raising curiosities in viewers.

The CPR kiss scene was filmed at a pool in Suwon on the 26th for an hour. Minho and Sulli, thanks to their great relationship and teamwork, completed the scene without any bad takes. On set, Minho was spotted consoling Sulli, who can’t swim, and was definitely a reliable male partner for her. When Sulli began to get scared before going in the deep parts of the pool, he told her how to breathe and told her that if she is in trouble, he’ll save her. Thanks to his reassuring words, she was able to enter the water and finish the scene relatively easily.

Both Minho and Lee Hyun Woo showed off their masculinity and athletic side by filming the scene without the help of any equipment at a pool with depths over 5 meters. Though the risk factor was high, there were stunts on standby but the two of them, who started swimming at a young age, was able to do everything themselves.

The production company said, “Sulli and Minho are showing increasing teamwork as the days go on.” The love story will become clearer now that Minho knows Sulli’s true identity but Lee Hyun Woo will also start to really grow feelings for Sulli.”

Training date


Sulli and Minho will kick-off the official love line of the drama with their ‘training date.’

They were spotted chatting about athletic equipment and encouraging each other as they run alongside each other during training. It showed that Minho was slowly opening his heart to Sulli as well. As a result, we see a totally different side of Minho, who had never really openly approached and interacted with Sulli.

We see the transformation from a steely cold boy to the warm-hearted guardian angel that he is, which is getting the audiences excited about the love story that is to ensue.

The production company said, “The training date scene was difficult to shoot because of the constantly changing weather but thanks to the teamwork and passion on the part of the cast and crew, the scene was completed well.”

Sit-up kiss

  On tomorrow’s episode of SBS’s “To the Beautiful You,” f(x)’s Sulli and SHINee’s Minho will reenact “Secret Garden’s” iconic sit-up kiss between Ha Ji Won and Hyun Bin.

 As shown in the released stills, the two idol-actors are paired up as partners during one of their training sessions. When Minho brings himself up and makes eye contact, a wide-eyed Sulli looks surprised and flushed.

 According to a representative of the production team, ”Both Sulli and Minho are currently sacrificing sleep to keep on schedule. However, both are always bright and energetic. They’ve also proven their dedication to acting by constantly practicing and studying their script with the production team.”

Back Washing Scene


Min Ho and Sulli go down to the country to do volunteer work together. After working hard doing volunteer work, Min Ho asks Sulli to pour water on his back to wash off the sweat. Sulli helps him to cool off by pouring water on his back.

During the shooting, Min Ho showed off his perfect figure. His muscular upper body will capture the female audience. Even though he has a baby face, his manly figure impressed all the crew members on the set. The scene was taken on September 18 in a Korean folk village. Min Ho actually sweats a lot during the day shooting the series under the strong sun. However, he had to shoot the scene, in which Sulli pours ice cold water on his back, in the evening when the weather got cooler.

Sulli worried about Min Ho because he might have caught a cold. But Min Ho comforted Sulli by playing jokes and the two stars finished shooting the scene quickly. The production crew for the series said, “Even though the shooting is hard and exhausting, the actors and the crew members are always smiling. Sulli, Min Ho, Lee Hyun Woo, Seo Jun Young, and other actors always create a happy atmosphere on the set and we want to thank them for their hard work.”

Surprise Kiss

Tae Jun (Minho) kisses Jae Hee (Sulli) without a warning. 

Jae Hee, who had been worried about Tae Jun's declining performance following his father's hospitalization, took Tae Jun out for a date, where she took him to places filled with memories of their childhood.

On their way back, Tae Jun, who was having a hard time hiding his feelings for her after realizing that she was a girl, asks her if she would go back to the US if he jumps again. She responds by saying that she probably would and his expression changes.
Then, she complains about the weather and Tae Jun takes off his jacket for her. As he put it around her and heard her say thanks, he suddenly kisses Jae Hee, unable to keep himself back any longer.

 After their short kiss, Jae Hee pushes him off and says, "I think I'm a little drunk from what little alcohol was in the chocolate," making excuses. Jae Hee leaves quickly and finds her heart beating faster as she gently touches her own lips. This episode signaled an even faster advance in their romantic relationship.

Fountain Kiss

Sulli and Minho’s fountain kiss was revealed.

In the SBS drama “To the Beautiful You,” which ended today, Jae Hee (Sulli) and Tae Jun (Choi Minho) shared a kiss in front of a fountain.

The kiss scene occured when Jae Hee left school to attend a national sports day to meet Tae Jun. They have a biking date in a nearby park and kiss in front of the fountain afterwards.

This kiss scene was filmed last month in Kyungkido. The actors’ waiting period was very long because setting up the matrix cameras took a long time, but the actual filming flowed smoothly and it’s said that the actors were able to finish filming after 3 takes.

Sulli kisses Minho




Vogue Girl Interview







Sulli

V.G. After singing isn't it difficult acting again?
Sulli: Truthfully I do feel burdened since I'm starting to act again after such a long time. But the things I used to do, like playing around with the staff everyday and conversing with the director, began to surface in my memory one by one as soon as the filming started. Without even my knowing, I must have missed that atmosphere of a filming set. Because it somehow feels like I've discovered myself these days, acting feels more comfortable now.



V.G. What was it like when you received the offer for For You in Full Blossom? You must have fretted over having to cut your hair.
Sulli:  There might be a misunderstanding if I speak like this, but as soon as I saw the original I thought that I absolutely must do it. I suddenly received the sensation that "there is no one to absorb this role other than myself." I felt that I could do really, really well. I think I felt rueful for just one minute right before cutting my hair.

V.G. Is the role of Goo Jaehee similar to the Sulli whom we've known?
Sulli:  It likely won't be the 'cute and lovable Sulli.' However, there are quite a few aspects that are similar to my real image. Most people think of me as a child with a lot of cuteness, but truthfully I'm a bit gruff and I have somewhat of a masculine side. I also tend not to express myself. It's been difficult to bring out that part of me in f(x), so I think it worked out well that I can naturally show something close to my real image through this role.

V.G. Did you reference the characters played by Yoon Eunhye or Park Shinhye?
Sulli:  I referenced them in regards to outfits and hairstyles. I enjoyed watching both Coffee Prince and You are Beautiful, and truthfully even then I thought "The roles of Go Eunchan and Go Minam would suit me well." Haha.

V.G. I'm aware that you will become the main character in a love triangle. Between Kang Taejoon's brusque and manly style and Cha Eungyul's kindhearted style, which does Sulli actually like?
Sulli:  Manliness is nice, but I still think that a sentimental style who looks after you well is good. I like guys who will talk to me first. Please reference this. Haha.

V.G. Could you become reckless for love like Goo Jaehee?
Sulli: If it's someone I really like I could do reckless things to no end, but I don't know if I could turn the cogs of my brain like Jaehee. I have no confidence in something like coming up with a perfect plan. I'm not very meticulous.

V.G. If this drama becomes a hit, is there something you want to do?
Sulli:  Um, a shampoo CF! When you go to the store, there are pictures on the shampoos. But only really pretty stars are gathered there. Truthfully I was a bit jealous whenever I saw that.

V.G. If you could become another member of f(x) for just a day, who would you choose?
Sulli:  I want to become Victoria unnie and try doing a split. And then try sleeping like that. And if my eyes become big like unnie's, wouldn't I be able to see more of the world than I do now? Ack, is that a bit nonsensical?

Minho

V.G. Have you practiced the high jump a lot? Judging from your victory on Let's Go! Dream Team you did well, at the level of an actual athlete.
Minho:  I began to practice about a month and a half before we went into active filming. I thought that it was easy up until the first week or two, but it was so different from what I did on Dream Team. High jumpers do a back flip and this is very difficult. High jumping is extremely hard even compared to other athletic events, so they say that even athletes avoid it.

V.G. Kang Taejoon is a character which any woman would fall for, to what extent do you think you're in sync with the character?
Minho:  For now I'll put it at about 50%. We share many similar aspects in terms of personality, but things like our family relationships and the attitude with which we treat others are different. I watched the Japanese drama and looked for the original work too, but I can't say that we're completely similar because he's a character who is pure but still manly with outstanding looks. I'll just say that I want to express him well and emulate the character.

V.G. How will you show a different image from Oguri Shun, who took on the same role in the Japanese drama?
Minho:  The method of expression is different according to each person who acts. I'm interpreting the character with a bit of a different feel from Oguri Shun. Rather than with words, please confirm this on August 15th through the broadcast! Haha.

V.G. SHINee's Minho and actor Minho, and the Minho who partakes in photo shoots like today. Among these, which is the most difficult role?
Minho: Acting. I can just show myself when I sing and dance and take pictures, but when I act I have to naturally express someone other than myself so it's difficult. And having to create a side which the drama's viewers can empathize with is the most difficult.

V.G. If one day you can have your pick of any production, what type of movie would you like to do?
Minho:  Action or a noir movie along Quentin Tarantino's style. I want to try doing a movie that guys will like but that will probably be possible in the far future, not with my current image.

V.G. Speaking of your image, are you seeking the image of an upright young man? I once saw you at a piercing shop, and you cut short the staff members who were encouraging you to get a piercing saying "I won't."
Minho: (very surprised) Wow! I went just that once, but you saw that. Truthfully, I was curious. The members have gotten a lot of piercings too. I'm not trying to go for an upright image in particular, but for some reason I think that funky outfits and piercings won't suit me. Once my stylist got hold of magnetic earrings which didn't require pierced ears but when I looked in the mirror, as expected it looked strange. In addition, I lost them after not even an hour. So in conclusion, "upright young man" isn't of my own will but something that can't be helped. Haha.

Band commercial
You may remember SHINee‘s Minhoand f(x)‘s Sulli‘s promoting the Naver‘s mobile application ‘BAND‘, with their drama ‘To The Beautiful You‘ (‘For You in Full Blossom‘).

The two previously released a promotional video showing Minho and Sulli behind-the-scenes while filming. They acted like a real couple backstage, smiling brightly as they playfully argued. Sulli had uploaded photos of Minho behind-the-scenes onto the application ‘BAND’. When Minho saw the photo, he started to chase Sulli down, who responded, “We’re the only ones who’ll see it!“, and Minho responded, “What if someone else sees?“. Sulli laughed and said, “Don’t be so cheap“, and the two didn’t lose their laughter as they went off screen. 

The second part of the promotional video shows Sulli taking photos of Minho in secret and uploading them onto the application. After uploading, Sulli looks back up, but Minho had disappeared. In confusion, she looks around, only to have Minho appear right next to her and causing her to laugh as she runs away. Minho leisurely goes after her, smiling as he jokes, “Do you want to get yelled at?“.

ChosunIlbo visited TTBY filming site and had an interview with Minho and Sulli



Q: Why the drama has the comic type of feel?
Minho: The drama is originated from a Japanese manga, although the viewership rating is low, but the popularity of this story happened in a male high school of sports, judged from twitter and SNS, it seems like it's popular among the students.


Q: each other weakness?  

Minho: Sulli is a smiling angel~ She always smile and laugh happily even though at the hard and tiring filming site ^^ about sulli's weaknesses.This kind of thing, can only tell when sulli is not around~ haha!! 
Sulli: closed ears and ignore another people's comments, I say based on what I see, no weakness at all, really! (Minho) always say things that we like to listen to, Minho oppa is full of energy all the time, and always take care of me..hehe~


Q: Both of you are from the same company, and even passed the trainee's period together, acting as a couple, and have kiss scene, don't you two feel awkward?   

Minho: When I was in junior high school and sulli was in her primary two, we started to take care of each other. At 1st, because we are really close, we were quite worried of the love line filming part, but surprisingly both of us performed very well during the shooting~ It seems like affection increased at the same time when we always praised each other. 
Sulli: I show my own self during the filming, but it seems like Minho oppa is the opposite of me, he gave a totally new feeling. 
Minho: The kiss scene with Sulli was NG-ed 15 times, at 1st the feeling is still good, but after repeating for many times, I felt tremble slowly.. Sulli: I was opposite of him, I felt nervous at the beginning, but I was calmer after that.


Q: The hardest scene?  

Minho: The high jump scene in deagu stadium is hard. In the hot summer, was doing the running backwards practice for about one and a half month. 
Sulli: For me it's the scene of dropping from the diving platform, it's the part where Jaehee is being bullied by her classmate, and pushed down into the swimming pool from the diving platform. Because there's an incident happened when I was small, so I am quite phobia with water. To complete that scene, I used the oxygen tank and tried to practice diving in the water first. I can only stay in the water for 2 seconds at 1st, to help me reduce my phobia, Minho oppa always sang with me in the water, or play rock paper scissors with me, so that I can practice happily.


Q: Rating on own acting skill, how many marks will you give yourself out of 100 marks?

Minho: I did not move out of the 1st step as an actor that well, I will give myself 1 mark 1st; I would like to continue to act in the future, and hope to increase the makes and achievement slowly. 
Sulli: I will give myself 1 mark as well, because the practice in acting is not ended yet, now is just a beginning.


Q: What is your dream as an actor?

Minho: I would like to be an actor like Jang Dong Gun! I hope that at the same time as I am promoting in Asia as a SHINee's member, I can continue my career in acting handsomely. Sulli: Although it's a weird character which loves deeply and even willing to die for it, but I would like to try to act with this feeling one day.


Q: About chuseok, do you have anything to say?  

 Minho: The 16 episodes-drama, now only left with filming for the final 2 episodes, we might film the final episode during the chuseok holidays. I celebrated chuseok with family every year, but I can't do it this year, I feel pity of it. 
Sulli: I celebrated chuseok with friends, family and relatives at my hometown Busan previously, but I can't do it this time.


Q: Finally, anything you would like add on?  

Minho &Sulli: Because of that, we will work even harder to finish the drama shooting..The hot summer has passed, now it's the cold autumn, to all chosun readers, everyone must be careful not to fall sick. While eating delicious food with your family, have a happy chuseok too! Our drama, keep supporting it until the last episode! We will appear with a better image as singers and actors next time! Please look forward to it! 


Hanako Magazine

Minho has caught attention for playing the male lead character in “For You in Full Blossom”. “As a lead character, it is indeed really tiring to lead the entire drama. As I lack acting experience, when I look back (at the drama), I sometimes will feel “Ah~ It is such a pity (that I could have done better) in this scene!”, as expected, these words came out from the man who has a strong desire to win, Minho.

Taejoon, the charcter Minho plays fell in love with Jaehee, the female character played by Sulli from f(x) under the same management company. Talking about the hot-discussed kissing scene, “because my relationship with Sulli is not bad to begin with, so I think that the effects came out well.” Was the kiss initiated by Minho? After asking him, he (replied) “Yes” hahaha and laughed bashfully.

He not only has a perfect appearance but also good in all sports; full of manly aura but yet gentle - simply flawless.” Analyze yourself what kind of person is Minho? “Cautious, tries to avoid causing trouble for others, will always embrace a positive thinking when dealing with anything.” During the interview, being unexpectedly being teased by other members, Minho seems to be very happy too.

When we told Minho what other members replied for “Q5. What recent event have caused you to feet the closness (bonds) between members?” - ( members raised the long absence of Minho as their answer), Minho responded “Really!” and seemed extremely happy. His beautiful eyes are even more dazzling now.

 MINHO

“I’m drawn to girls who are considerate about others’ feelings”

Minho, who was active as an actor, was the main character for the Korean version of the drama “For You in Full Blossom” which was also popular in Japan. “Since it was my first time being the main character, every single day of filming was an important experience for me and it became a great memory. I went to various places like a mountain and sea for shooting. It felt like we were filming while enjoying a trip. The members are always around me but I was suddenly by myself, so sometimes I felt lonely. Still, when I feel the pressure that “I must accomplish this even on my own”, I tend to put more effort towards it.”

The filming for the drama consumed a lot of time and was quite harsh. In that situation, what was the key for him to keep his skin and body to be in the best condition? “Sleep properly. At least for 5~6 hours.The more, the better (laugh). I turn off the lights in my room to ensure a good sleep.”

What kind of girl may charm him? “Someone who would wait, who takes good care of her boyfriend. By ‘wait’, I mean that rather than expressing her feelings, she’ll try to understand her partner’s feelings. I think it is important to be able to be considerate.” 

  • Question: Minho, what was it like working with f(x)'s Sulli in the drama To The Beautiful You? We heard you know each other since elementary school. Did anything interesting happen between the two of you during filming
  • Minho: Working with her was wonderful since we're such good friends. We're so comfortable with each other; we were able to share each other’s concerns and worries about acting during filming.

High Cut Interview Jan-2013

Inside the studio flowing with chilly winter air, it seemed like a protective shield of spring was made around just these three people. Could biological siblings even be this friendly? The stars of the 94th issue are SHINee's Minho and f(x)'s Sulli and Krystal who were chosen as the "flower beauty" of idols.

The question of “Will they actually be friendly in real life?" was answered as soon as Minho arrived at the shooting site. "Is it there?" He asked where the girls' make-up room was. He strode there and opened the door without hesitation. When Minho greeted hi, friendly 5-octave voices replied. While the shooting was held, they talked whenever they could and burst into laughter even when they just met eyes.

The photographer said, "It'll be good if you look even closer" during the shoot so they immediately put their heads together and linked arms. As soon as Minho and Sulli's hands were laid on top of each other, Sulli playfully said, "Ah, our hands touched!" The 20 year olds Sulli and Krystal are known to be best friends and it seems like a happy virus surged out just because they're with each other.

Even the people around who were watching them followed suit and became happier. The fresh youth and the refreshing time we spent with them. Minho made a love line with Sulli in “For You in Full Blossom”. It seems like it'd be awkward to film close scenes with a dongsaeng you've known for a long time. I thought it would be awkward at first but we just went and filmed it and there wasn't anything too awkward. Since we are already close, there were moments when we were comfortable acting but then there were some awkward moments when we just tried it (laugh).
I've grown a lot closer to Sulli while working on this project and she has become a dongsaeng who I truly cherish.

Elle Girl Dec 2012


 
 
Last month they released an original Japanese single, wondering what kind of female appears to be the most dazzling ones to them?

Jonghyun: Someone who works hard.

Key: Someone whom I find similiar after having conversations. At that moment I would find her especially attractive, even the face would look different than just ordinary.

Onew: Someone with aura. (okay really the CN trans says so, so yeah==)

Minho: Someone whom likes me, the moment when I got attracted with her perfume (?) 

Taemin: I think female whom wants to get married asap is the prettiest… why am I the only one who thought so...
