A fan blog suggestion for MVPs and Onsoonis

I'm sure most MVPs know this tumblr 'Onew Things' run by an Onsooni.
In case some don't know, I want to share her youtube channel and tumblr with you. :D

The 2 male fans of SNSD still praise our Onew. LOL

Do you remember my post 'Onew F/A posted by 2 male fans of SNSD before Ep 3 of 'Night Star/YHS' aired in 2010. '?
The 2 male fans finished their military service and have occasionally been posting and making comments about Onew since then.
Here what I found yesterday, very recent post they made.

*Jazzhunnyang(JH) is the guy who paired up with Onew, and Yajabaksa is his friend who also filmed in YHS when SNSD members showed up to help Onew.

Onew and Lee-Joon are hanging out now~

2 girls said in Bestiz, they heard (from their friends?) that
Onew and Lee-Joon were found at night at a 'stir-fried chicken ribs' restaurant, 유가네,
and went to a cafe looking so girly(princess style LOL) in Onew's hometown, Kwangmyung. XD

(Some people say the girls said the cafe Onew and Joon went to was Ann House,
and some say it was a rumor spread due to one comment
that a fan made assuming it could be Ann House.)

Onew, Taemin, Key in Spain?


Why are they there now, only three? So curious to know what they are doing.
Their hair-designer tweeted that Onew and Taemin went out to see a soccer game, 'Barcelona' against 'AC Milan', and a Korean girl said on 'Bestiz' that she saw them filming around the beach in Barcelona. She wanted to take a picture of them, but Choi-Jin stopped her.

Wow, so they really are in Spain now~!
Some say they are there for a fashion shooting, and some say for a variety show.
Whatever they do, I just want to see pics and cams of them so bad. XD
Needless to say, I want them to rest a bit there if they can, and enjoy Spain, their first visit. ^^




One more pic at the market in Barcelona.

Onew F/A posted by 2 male fans of SNSD before Ep 3 of 'Night Star/YHS' aired in 2010.

Holy.., I started to translate this F/A, posted on SHINee Gallery by 2 male guests done laundry with Onew and 4 members of SNSD on 'Night Star/ YHS' ,since last month or earlier than that, but finished it just now. Thanks god. LOL I don't know why it took me so long to do. *Sweating*
(Onew talking with Sooyoung on Ep 3 of it.)

The guy, Onew's partner on the show, still sometimes posts that he supports Onew on SHINee Gallery and SNSD Gallery. One of his posts I remember is he said he was ok staying in the military protecting Jessica(he is originally her fan) and Onew (like defending South Korea?). LOL

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*Posted by a guest paired up with Jessica

Title: Onew is even considerate when others take their clothes off. LOL

When the guest, Onew's partner, hesitated taking his clothes off, Onew asked him "Why? Are you shy that people look at you?" with a calm smile. XD He is a beautiful man, I definitely thought.
He even kept waving his hand toward his partner with calling his name until the guest partner looked at him. hehe.

Title: Hm, to praise Onew again. XD

I paired up with Jessica. I poured detergent too much that it kept bubbling up although I continuously squezzed the laundry, so Onew and his partner came to help us. Onew worked so hard. He was so considerate telling me and the other guests about what was going on every time the camera was on and off, and asked us "Are you ok? It's hard, isn't it?" many times. XD
 
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Posted by the guest paired up with Onew. You can see he is sooooo into our bb Onew. LOL

Title: I just got home from YHS.
     
Hello~ I just became a fan of SHINee after being paired up with Onew hyung.

Title: I want to tell you more, but..,

I can't say a lot to you because it isn't aired yet.
Anyway, the thing I was impressed the most was, that when celebrities started going home, I had to have an inteview shot. The car, Onew hyung was in, stopped and he kept waving his both hands towards me, but I couldn't see him. No way. But, after a script-writer noona led me know that, I finally was able to say goodbye to him too, my both arms wide open waving up and down, "Hyung~ Take care~". He said "JH-ah, take care~" as he smiled at me.
It isn't all. He kept bye-bye-ing as he smiled and made eye contact with me in the car.
I couldn't resist getting attracted by his smile. I just had to like him.

Title: Hm.. I couldn't focus on anything when doing the laundry.

My mind was everywhere for doing what Onew-hyung wanted to do. I just totally had to be led by his power.
'The art of fighting for the laundry' we tried worked so well.
When having sikhye(sweet rice drink) and when moving to another place, he took care of me a lot, so I was able to enjoy there easily.
It was so warm-hearted that he and I kept sharing the sikhye together.
I wiped his sweat with a towel that Jessica noona gave me, oh, and I even took a towel Jessica noona used for her.
He said his fingers weren't pretty, and told me mines were prettier, so I felt good. hehe.

Title: I didn't want to say this, but...

Some of you guys especially men, keep saying I'm gay. Hur.
Please don't say that to me. You would compeltely understand if you saw Onew's face from his forhead to sharp nose to slim chin line, if you saw his cute smile and laugh, that even got along well with his muscles and couldn't be hidden, if you experienced that he dedicatedly took care of you, and if you experienced his sense of humor and cute lovely behavior. Oh, yeah, you would understand me.^^ Well, sorry, I'm not gay.

Title: What I mean by I was led by his power.   
 
I'm not joking Onew hyung is really strong, so when we wrung out the laundry, I was dragged by him all the time. I just had to give myself to him whatever he wanted to do.
I thought he must have been so tired working so hard like that.
He told me he had to work out until his musical time to be able to digest all work given to him.
I really want SHINee's next album to be released soon, and I want to go to his musical,
'Brothers were Brave', before going to the military.


This is the answer for Onew's body shape some fans asked.

To describe his body what I was questioned the most.
Actually it was the first time I had seen idol's body.
People, who work out, usually have thic muscles like health trainers, but he had thin muscles everywhere.
His arms were thinner than other parts of his body, but his muscles on them were well stood out.
His shoulders were so wide that his muscles were shown perfectly when he even moved just a bit.
His chest was well connected from his neck that it looked like sturdy.
He even had muscles, what are hard to have, in his back.
The scene, he wrung out the laundry, was edited, but you can see those muscles in the scene he carried buckets of water. So dependable back. huhu.
His legs were a lot thinner than mine, but looked so deft and sturdy.
My leg flesh go shaking when moving, but his' didn't shake because of muscles.
Oh, and............ it was Khaki color.... (He's talking about Onew's underwear color. LMAO)
I will stop talking about his lower body because of some people reporting me. XD

This is the answer for what he talked about with Onew.

First, Onew hyung's friend, who was on the show and went to the military on May 18th, and Onew hyung talked about their friends' recent news who were already in the military.

I also talked with Onew hyung about his life. I was thinking being a celebrity was really hard, it seemd there was no free and private time. He had to do all the schedule non-stop like going to the gym, performing the music, recording variety shows, having another schedule next morning straight.
But, he didn't seem tired of taking care of me at all, kept talking with me to make me relax so that I could be comfortable recording the show. It was the reason why I had no problem to speak spontaneously when the camera was on.

I think he has full of idea in his head. Most ideas were Onew hyung's, that day. hehe.
I can't stop thinking of that he took care of me a lot.    
The one who will be his bride in the future is going to be so happy for sure.

Anyway, what I want to say is that he's the person taking care of people well, is good-natured, and has a good sense that he knows what's going on.

By the way, I realized how hard broad station work was...

An Onsooni's F/A, Onew at Incheon airport today, posted at 10:06 am.

"I'm waiting to board my flight going to NY at gate 10 now.
For getting some medicine, I went to a pharmacy, the only one in the airport after passing through immigration, then I saw SHINee in Starbucks, right next to the pharmacy.
Ohmygod Lee-Jinki!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ohmygod Choi-jin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I looked at him, thinking His back is like Lee-Jinki...?, ohmygod, it was him. T.T
My heart crazily pounded, but I acted like a 'Cool City Woman' just like any other non-fangirl woman ah, SHINee..? in order not to give him my look so fangirl........, but I'm sure I had the 'obsessed fangirl look' on my face. ^_T

I thought I'd just get the medicine quickly and go back to my waiting area, but I couldn't help but go to Starbucks to order anything listed on top of the menu with a quivering voice. XD
SHINee was in front of the counter waiting for their coffees.
Kibum, Taemin, Jinki, Choi-Jin, and a woman were there.
On the way coming back from Singapore yesterday, I also saw Infinite at the airport, but it absolutely can't be compared. I'm not joking SHINee shine all over their bodies. XD

Taemin was in a black tee and sunglasses, laughing/talking over something very funny, and he was so tall. (I'm a small girl, that's why? XD)
Kibum was talking with the woman next to him. She said, I didn't know you were into Latte?, then he laughed with his facial expression like 'ㅂ'. T.T He was so skinny and wore unique leggings so pretty.
Jinki stood next to Choi-Jin, jumping like a kid waiting for Americano. T.T Toooo cute. T.T
His hair was so natural and pretty, and was in a grey hoodie and loose pants. T.T
His cropped pants showed his calves, so milky-white. T.T
I'm telling you guys, I can hardly calm down now. XD Kya~! LOL

I even filmed them secretly, so chaos and wild-excitement video by my hands trembled.
Jinki took his Ice Americano sucking it with a straw as he walked towards gate 100 area. T.T
My hands were trembling even filming his back faintly getting smaller from my sight. LOL
I'll upload the video later.

When I waited for him coming out from Starbucks, looking around and looking back, Jinki's eyes and my eyes met, but I had to turn my gaze. T.T Soooooooooooo good looking. T.T
I always thought what I'd do when meeting him for real, but I don't give a crap about it now. XD
In real life, shivering like crazy with having no words. LOL
I really wanted to get his autograph or take a picture with him, but stopped myself hopping for that because of Choi-Jin standing next to him. XD"

Random Onew in an influential blogger's post

The article is about Infinite (http://neblog.com/822), there's Onew mentioned as an example,
so I wanted to share it with you.
The power blogger is a man in his late 30s and post any field analysing very obvjectively.
Sometimes, his posts are published in portal sites and get hundreds comments.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"(...) To clear up what the public used to think of Infinite before... (...)
It can be interpreted that, in Infinite, there was no fatal attractive member, like Beast's Lee-Kikwang and Yoon-Doojoon, SNSD's Taeyeon and Yoona, f(x)'s Krystal, SHINee's Onew and MissA's Suzy. These mascot members can be a main vocal and leader. (...)"

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As you can see, he deosn't know who's the most popular member in fandom (by Beast),
just knows who are often mentioned and loved on TV.

Onew loved by his idol Sung-Shikyung hyung

1. As many MVPs know, Onew met Sung-Shikyung hyung first
through '야행성/YHS/Night Star' (Oct 10,2010).
He was all shy, pink cheeks, speaking like a shy girl in front of hyung, you remember that, eh? ^^
I was so happy seeing Onew finally singing '내게 오는 길/The Road To Me' with his idol,
You know he'd sung it so many times on Radio, TV and at fan-meeting since his debut.

We can't miss him singing '잊혀지는 것들에 대하여/About Forgotten Things'.
His voice just killed me!!! ㅇ<-<

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. In Sung-shikyung's interview, 'Idol, these days? Onew and Taeyang are commendable.'
on Oct 16, 2010, not many days after their 'Night Star' was aired.

"It's sad that there are no hoobaes who can sing songs by sunbaes like Yoon-Jongshin and Yoon-Sang these days. I want to interact with idols for music loved by lots of people long ago, that lyrics and melody were more important and that was sung with slow breathing, so that we can make people feel and recall 'Ah, there are songs like these.'"
He had sad expression on his face when saying that.

"But, I was happy that SHINee's Onew liked and was interested in old music."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. On Oct 17, 2010, Onew went to Sung-Shikyung's concert.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. On June 29, 2011, Sung-Shikyung said Onew was cute on his radio.
All Onsoonis were surprised he said that on the radio because he was famous/known for 'Cold-hearted person' rarely giving friendly and warm words to other people.- He isn't a bad person or anything, just his well-known character. XD

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Another Sung-Shikyung's song
'우린 제법 잘 어울려요/We Look Quite Good Together' covered by Onew, I like. hehe.)

Onew loved by Lee-Sooyoung and Park-Kyunglim noonas

Dialogue between DJ Park-Kyunglim and Lee-Sooyoung noonas. 
(I don't know when it was aired on ByulBam.)

PKL: Ok, let's answer the question. Oh, SHINee..
       (Maybe, 'Juliette' was suddenly playing?)
LSY: Awwww Onew-ya!! I miss you, Onew!! Onew-yaaaaaa. T.T
PKL: Juliette!
LSY: Onew, I love you~

(After Juliette finished.)

PKL: Yes~ 'Juliette' by SHINee! Every time I listen to this song, I feel like the Juliette is (LSY: Me!)
        if it were me... Ugh! -_- Well..ㅋㅋㅋ Kya~ I have no words to say now that
        you said 'Me!' right after I said that~ (LSY: Hehehe) Ok, it's you!
LSY: Noona of 'Noona neomu yeppo' is me, (PKL: Ok, it's you!) 'Juliette' is me ^^, (PKL: It's you!)
PKL: 'You(Love) like oxygen' is also (LSY: Me~ ^///^) you!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On Saebakwi / 세바퀴 (aired on Oct 30 in 2010), Park-Kyunglim phoned Onew to have a speed quiz together through the phone, but his manager hyung hung up on her right away. I guess Onew was doing musical ROA? XD
(When I find this cut, I'll upload it on my YT channel, I promise.)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm sure you have seen a lot PKL treats Onew like her nephew or son(XD).
If you haven't, these videos would help you little, just little.

"Onew took my phone number~"

PKL is letting Onew and Key touch her belly to feel her baby moving.



------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You know there are lots of audio clips of LSY having Onew-Ache, right?
I uploaded most of them on my previous channel, but all got deleted when the account was deleted.
I'm going to reupload them all tomorrow for those of you who haven't listened or want to listen all again, so stay tuned to my channel, bbs~! ^^
(I guess I never get bored of listening to female celebrities' Onew-Ache,
especially LSY ones, so much like me. LOL)

The girl, who posted about Onew's toll ticket, again on 'Nate Pan'

"Wow, my previous posting took the first place for the toll ticket story.
It must be the power of Onew.

I don't know what kind of car he drove... sorry, I have no idea about car stuff,
only remember his car was black.
The tollgate I worked is in Cheonan (one and a half hours away from Seoul).
Other men in the car weren't SHINee members, no women only men."

A posting on SHINee Gallery from a male fan of SNSD after Korean Wave Concert

Onew was awesome at Korean Wave Concert.
I was sitting in SNSD area and Shawols were next to it.
When Onew shoot an Heart towards Shawols,
I don't know why I was so happy smiling from ear to ear.
Not just only me, everyone went crazy when he did that. I can't describe this with only 'crazy' though. It was a moment of ear-splitting, Just so good as it was. ㅋㅋㅋ He was super pretty.

(You know 'pretty' in Korean can be also 'well-behaved', 'good-natured' and etc any good meaning.)

One day, her husband had seen SHINee on airplane.
He asked Onew, "Do you know 'OOO' teacher?"
Onew answered with a super bright smile, "Yes, I know her. How is she doing?"  ^▽^

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Oh! Onew used to learn Ethics from my teacher too!!!
He said Onew studied well and was gentle and quite,

"Have you gotten a toll road ticket from Onew?" posted on 'Nate Pan'.

This was posted today on 'Nate Pan' where people usually exaggerate stories to be more fun.
I just wanted to share that Onew does drive sometimes. (Kya~! I want to see him driving so bad.)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I worked in Tollgate from January to April.
One day, in the evening, a car stopped and the driver gave me 10,000 won with the toll ticket.
I looked at his face, then realized he exactly looked like Onew!!!
But I wasn't sure, so I was like o_o? as I looked at him, and o_o? as I put the toll ticket in a box, and o_o? as I looked at him again.
When I kept looking around with the question mark on my head, he said,

"Yes, right." ㅋㅋ

I didn't even say anything. ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
I was so surprised thinking, 'SHINee's Onew is here!!!!!!!!'.
Having my heart race, I stuttered almost shouting at him,
"Wo...wow!!!! Can I have your autograph?" as I gave him a pen and paper.

"Can you do that while working?" ㅋㅋ

I told him it was ok with a quivering voice when he said that as a joke.
Two people sitting in the passenger seat and back seat, seeming friends of his, laughed. ㅋㅋ

This is his autograph I got.



I always brag about this when I meet my friends, I'm the girl who has met Onew. ㅋㅋㅋ"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(I don't think he said "Yes, right." , don't you think? XD
She would probably have just wanted to make the story more fun, or not. kekeke)

Onew praised by a Korean waitress working in Tokyo.

A Korean girl working as a waitress in a Korean pancake restaurant in Tokyo said,
she saw Onew, Taemin and Jonghyun, came with 2 Japaneses, not long ago.
Onew was so pleased that she spoke Korean, and asked which food was the most delicious one there. She recommended several food and they ordered all she recommended.
She said Onew was super kind and polite that while the Japanese people who came with them were paying the bill and other members were outside, Onew cleaned up the table piling up all the dishes so that the waitress could work eaiser.
He bowed and said Bye in Japanese as he left there.

(Yes, my boy~! ^^)

If so, I like him more. It's always good to stimulate people's curiosity as a celebrity, better than showing everything at one go. <333

."Two nicest ones among celebrities I met, who made me feel good!!

 One is Onew. I met him when I went to a music station.
 I was surprised bumping into him there, so asked him Can I have your autograph?
 He answered yes~ with his smile ^▽^ just like this.
 "What's your name? ^▽^ It's too hot today, isn't it? ^▽^"

 He looks exactly like the emoticon. ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ"

"When I worked in Hyundai Department in Shinchon as a Car-boy greeting customers,

 I thought Onew was really nice and polite that he even bowed to me greeting 'Hello~!'.

 I like him, so gentle."

Korean men's reaction to 'Onew is popular among women'

  I translated some comments from postings related to Onew's popularity from BULLPEN,
  one of the biggest communities that Korean men usually talk anything casually.
  They rarely bring up male idols, but sometimes they do talk about them.

  The posting titles are usually,
  'i don't understand why Onew is loved by so many girls', 
  'The most popular member in each group I don't understand.',
  'How girls think about Onew is same as how we think about Taeyeon.' etc etc. LOL
  I'm not joking this kind of subject has been discussed in so many communities for years.

  It's a bit long, but hope you enjoy and get an idea how Korean men think about him.
  (I am sure there are some comments made by women too, but mostly by men.)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- His face isn't something unique or special, but for what many people say about him,
  he must have his own charm to be that popular.

- For women using the internet a lot, it's impossible not to know Onew.
  In Internet communities like Daum Cafes and Bestiz where are mostly for women,
  so many of them pick him as their ideal type, seriously.
  I think many people already know he is the most popular member too. ㅋㅋ
  I have lots of female friends in my university talking that they like him.
  By what I've heard, I think I'll start to like him too. ㅋㅋ

- Onew.. I think he's cute but has an ordinary face, ordinary dongsaeng image?

- Just think about why IU is popular. Onew's popularity is same as hers, cute dongsaeng image.

- Isn't he the typical 'Hun-Nam (heartwarming man)' type man?
  I absolutely understand why he is popular.
  If I were to look like him, I would uplod my picture to brag on here everyday..

- Asking 'Why Onew is popular? I don't get it.' is same as
  'Why are Taeyeon and Suzy so popular? Why do men think they are pretty?
  They just look so average.'.

- He looks cute when he especially smiles, but he isn't that good looking.

- He has a cute dongsaeng image, but I heard he's the most popular member.
  When I watched SM Concert in Paris on TV,
  it seemed he was also popular among western girls, was surprising.

- I first thought, 'Onew is an idol means anyone can be idol.',
  but he was just 'The-more-I-look-the-more-I-get-interested-in' type. Hard to get bored of him.
  He can be also loved by international fans who love typical Asian man looking.
  He sings well, behaves in an exemplary manner, and is tidy.
  Most importantly he's one of those who have the most beautiful voices.
  In a way, he also has a good sense of humor. That's why he's popular, I guess?

- It's because Onew seems very good-natured, and importantly he doesn't have double eyelid.

- It seems Onew's attractive, but a bit ordinary.

- I think I like Onew because of his attitude.

- Onew isn't the only popular idol having an oridinary face,
  but also JYJ's Junsu, Wooyoung and Yoseob.

- People think 'Hun-Nam (heartwarming man)' is only loved in the music industry,
  but it isn't true, look at those popular actors, they aren't also that good looking, just 'Hun-Nam'.

- He has a very ordinary face, but because of his image, soft, good-natured and good-mannered,
  girls love him, I think.

- Onew has 2 different charms at one go, most girls say.
  Just think about what type of woman men love.
  We love women looking pure and having a calm face. It's the same.

- In idol fandoms, the most popular members are usually
  who sing well and funny on variety shows. That's why.
  But even so, I personally don't understand why he's popular, don't women love 'a bad boy'?
  He behaves extremely nice and polite that women never get interested in,
  not a bad guy at all I thought, but I was wrong.

- Since I got interested in male idols, I've been mostly surprised at Onew, Wooyoung, Yoseob,
  who are the most popular members in their fandoms.
  It was hard to understand as a man, but I kind of get why now
  They are all cute and having familiar lookings like 'The Boy Next Door'.

- It's like, the more girls look at Onew, the more they find his endless charm.
  You know he looks good-hearted, gentle and neat having a Hun-Nam dongsaeng image.
  I personally don't like a woman or man having a boringly beautiful face,
  so I think he's good looking to me.

- It seems men usually say Onew isn't that good looking,
  but with having no double eyelid, he's handsome.

- If I were a girl, I would ask him to go out..

- As a matter of fact, it's the same case as how men look at Taeyeon and IU.
  I think Onew gives most people a good impression because of his smile and personality.

- Onew isn't average good looking guy, but girls love the kind of look.
  By the way, he's the most popular member, right?

- I heard his nickname is 'Dubu' because of his soft, gentle and kind image.
  His voice color is also unique. I feel good when looking at his smiley face.
  I definitely think he is charming to be #1 in the fandom.

- I think he's popular in public more than fandom.

- Hur.. Onew, Wooyoung and Junsu,
  the most popular member overwhelmingly in their fandoms?
  Don't you think they aren't good looking for being idols?

- Don't you think Onew is cute?
  As a man, what I think is he's cute having a baby face that girls fall in love with easily.

- Men usually love pretty and cute idols, but women usually have a wide choice of idols.
  They mostly prefer who's attractive than who looks good.

- Don't you think Onew is definitely the one that many girls feel comfortable with?
  His appearance is the general trend in the past few years.

- Many guys don't understand why Onew is that popular,
  but you know it's the same, women would react same as us
  when we tell them Taeyeon is the most popular member than Yoona and Yuri.
  I think Onew is attractive, neat and good looking.
  I don't think it's necessary to be super hansome to be popular.

- I heard Onew's fandom is the biggest one.

- Taeyeon isn't popular only for her look. Onew's case is the same.

- Having a charm is more important than look for idols.

- I think Onew is also popular among female idols by what has been said on the radio and TV.
  His appearance is something girls think very attractive, I think.

- I don't know if he's popular or not,
  but only name popping up in my head when thinking of SHINee is Onew.
  I think it's because his name is unique or what?

- Girls love Onew so much because of his soft image and voice.

- Women usually like a man looking like Tofu.
  (You know people started to use the term of 'Dubu type face' after Onew. ㅋㅋㅋ)

- I'm a man, but I agree with his soft image is very attractive..
  What I know is Song-Joongki, Park-Haeil, Onew, Park-Yunchun, etc are popular among women.

- Taeyeon VS Onew
  They sing well, popular in fandom, leaders, smile and do aegyo a lot on TV, actually shy in real life.
  I think they are alike.

- Taeyeon and Onew are '=', not 'VS'.
  I'm an active user on Bestiz and here,
  so I know how they are treated by both male and female fans.

- I'm not gay, but why I get more and more into Onew every time I listen to him singing?
  His voice is so good.

- How women think about Taeyeon is same as how men think about Onew.

- Is it only me, as a man, thinking he's cute and good at aegyo?;;

- I like Onew. ㅋㅋㅋ
  I noticed he was very popular when I saw him in SNSD's Concerts.
  First, he sings well and looks kind. ㅋㅋ

- He is the most popular member, I heard.

- I was surprised he was that popular..

- I talked with many ladies in their mid 20's few days ago
  and we suddenly brought up idols, SNSD, SHINee, 2PM and etc.
  All of them liked Onew, I was surprised..

- It's because Onew has everything, his look and voice that can make Noonas fulfil their fantazies.
  Many female friends of mine also go crazy about him.

- I like Onew because he looks very easy-going.

- Perhaps because Onew's look is like anyone can be comfortable with.
  He isn't that good looking, but his warm look never gives people dislike feeling on him, I think.
  For such reasons, no wonder why Onew and Taeyeon are popular.

- Such a nice looking boy. I think he's the nicest one among idols.

- He isn't handsome like what we usually talk about 'handsome',
  but girls might love his pure looking..

- I was so surprised at Onew is popular, but if so, there must be reasons.

- I'm a man, not gay or anything, but I like Onew the most if I have to pick one male idol. *_*

- Don't you think Onew is cute? Don't you think he's super nice and soft?
  I like him the most among male idols.

- He looks like a Junior-high student. I sort of started to like him since he sang with Jessica.

- I like Onew's voice and think his attitude is good. Who says he isn't good looking?
  He looks good, huh? I've heard he's really popular. I can absolutely understand that.

- Everyone's been saying Onew is popular and guys don't understand that,
  for years. ㅋㅋ

- In fact, Onew is the one who gets many votes as the ideal man
  from women in their teens and mid 20's overwhelmingly, but guys don't know this.
  I've been active in Soul Dresser, Bestize and here over recent years,
  so I know whom women and men like.

- I've seen him on variety shows. He has a good voice and sings well.

- I like Onew. His look doesn't wow me but his voice absolutely wow-s me.

- Onew is very likable, isn't he? I'm not gay, but it's strange if you don't like his smiley face.

- I think he has a soft voice and is tender-hearted that girls go crazy about.

- Some guys still think 2PM is the number one, but Onew is the number one for individual popularity.

- I don't know why I recently like him a lot especailly because of his unique voice?
  He seems good-natured and has a nice smile. +_+
  Oh, I like the songs he sang with Jessica and Kim-Yeonwoo.

- Isn't it like he's also popular among men as well?
  I personally like him the most among male idols... His voice is superb.

Some Onsoonis' funny stories how they unexpectedly became Onsoonis (MVPs).

- When Onew didn't show up at 'Maknae Rebellion', only his replica panel standing on,
  I started to naver him, then became an Onsooni with YHN videos. ㅋㅋㅋ

- There is a funny story of Onsooni. 
  She was watching SBS-InkiGayo, SHINee got 'Mutizen song'. 
  When they had to sing again after getting it, Jjong said "Onew hyung, are you watching us?!".
  (You know Onew wasn't there because he got swine flu. T.T)
  Then, she was thinking 'Who's Onew hyung?', she started to search his name on Naver,
  and you know she just became an Onsooni. ㅋㅋㅋ

- I'm a SM-Concert-Onsooni!! I even remeber the date, was Augst 21, 2010. ㅋㅋㅋ
  I couldn't stop thinking of him after seeing the scene he was with a delivery metal bag,
  delivering MIC to Go-Ara, just so refreshing.
  So, I had to google 'Onew' on Ipod, and then, I saw a picture of him in a pink hoodie.
  I could't resist becoming an Onsooni after. T.T

- I watched 'Flower-Boy Generation' every week because I was a fan of Park-Myunsoo.
  One day, SHINee appeared and they played a video of Onew about one minute
  because he didn't show up. I just became an Onsooni after the one minute video. ㅋㅋㅋ

- A friend of mine has just become Onsooni, her story is strange too. ㅋㅋㅋ
  There was a sunbae she had a secret crush on. She kept hearing he looked like Onew,
  'Who's that guy? I don't even know him.'
  She immediately had to search his pictures and videos.
  Her reaction was --> hur... --> hur...222... --> hur... 333... (until 5AM.)
  After, she snet me a message, 'Is Onew's real name Lee-Jinki?'.

  I was thinking, Nice~ ㅋ 'Exit-Blockade' for you too. ㅋㅋㅋ

- An unni I know, got drunk one day and downloaded 'Vanilla Love' for her phone bell by accident,
  then, 'Who is singing?!!!'. She loved his voice, so had to search Onew on Naver,
  then became an Onsooni only with the accident bell sound. ㅋㅋㅋ

Idol popularity Korean netizens think


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm sure many international fans have seen the list since a long time ago, but it's because  this newly updated list (but not much changed), what many people agree, has been spread everywhere on Korean communities thesedays, I just thought I would share it with you too.

I sort of disagree Onew is always mentioned as the most popular member mostly in fandom,
because everytime I see 'Ideal type World-Cup (Pick-One game stuff)' on K sites,
he is always high ranked (#1~4 out of 4,50 celebrities). I don't think those girls who picked him are only his fans, and since he appeared a lot on variety shows, I have seen so many good comments and postings about him. There are more reasons, but I'll blog about it later.
(Well, what I want to say is he's just popular not only in fandom but also public.)
Anyway it's always good he has many obsessed fans supporting him materially and mentally. ^^
