Why we love him: He is called tofu for a reason. He is so clumsy he trips on his own feet. You can even make slapstick show dedicated to the number of times he fell flat on his face. He injured his ankle once during a performance that it prevented him from getting up in the music video of “1 of 1.” Even with that, he can melt you into a helpless mush once he turns on his charm offensive. His aegyo on “Weekly Idol” has been the standard of aegyos for all idols for weeks.
What makes him standout: He has one of the most unique and identifiable vocals in the K-pop world. He and Jonghyun make a powerful vocal duo and they present it in the song, “Please, Don’t Go.”
Leader first: SHINee members have voted him as the person they will most likely confide in when they have problems. They said it is because he listens well and also because he tends to forget conversations making him the best person to share secrets with!
On the road: We see a lot of his personality in the show “One Fine Day.” For one, we know that left to his own devices, he will sleep all day on trips and compose silly songs. He probably will not even lift a finger to take a selca if he did not have to. Can we say #vacationbuddy
goals?
YouTube keywords: Type “Onew + mukbang.” Make sure you have a bowl of ramyeon in front of you when you watch this.
Choi Minho
Nickname: Flaming charisma
Birthday: Dec. 9,1991
Why we love him: For the uninitiated, Minho is the lure that invites you into the fandom.
