Yoseob and Onew Battles for English in 100 Points out of 100



In a recent episode of KBS2TV's ‘100 Points out of 100‘, SHINee’s Onew and Yoseob had their English skills tested by the cast members.

MC Park Myung Soo tested the two idols’ English by asking them to pronounce ‘Would you like something to drink?’ Onew said the line fluently while Yoseob stumbled over it, and the cast jeered over his ‘poor’ English skills. The cast called it the ‘English that you learn when you happen to make money quickly’.

Then they sang Eric Benet’s “The Last Time“, and Yoseob was criticized again at his poor pronunciation of ‘at all’. This time the cast made fun of him for making it sound like ‘ero’.

Dongwoon Left a Message for B2uties on their 500th Day

On February 27th, maknae Dongwoon thanked fans for their support in celebration of the group’s 500th day anniversary.

Through B2ST’s official fancafe, Dongwoon wrote, “This is Dongwoon. Today is B2ST’s 500th day. Our B2UTIES, who were more hurt than we were when people hated us more than they liked us.. Thank you for filling up our empty stage and our empty hearts. We’ll repay your unchanging love with an even bigger love. Thank you, genuinely. ^^”

Early on in B2ST’s debut, the group met with criticisms over the diverse history and experience of the members, which brought out nicknames like ‘recycled group’. Over time, the group was able to move past those criticisms, and they’re rising to become one of Korea’s top boy bands.

Fans responded, “B2ST was more hurt than us.. Thank you so much for doing well and succeeding to prove them wrong,” “You make me so happy to be a fan, nobody can’t say anything to you now, you know that right? Thank you for always working so hard,” “Fighting on your Japanese advancement. It’s already 500 days, time flies so fast,” and “Let’s not get hurt anymore. Aja aja!”

After completing their two-day encore concerts earlier this month, B2ST has now shifted focused onto their upcoming Japanese debut.

YoSeob and HyunSeung Respond to Sasaeng Fans



 After reprimanding B2ST’s sasaeng fans for their irresponsible behavior via Twitter, Yoseob took direct action by cleaning a fan’s scribble off a wall beside their neighbor's apartment.

On February 26th, B2ST’s manager tweeted, “Please don’t make our Yoseob suffer!” and uploaded a picture.

In the picture, the idol is shown wearing rubber gloves and cleaning various scribbles on the wall.

On the same day, Yoseob tweeted his sasaeng fans “Keep scribbling away“. His reaction is a result of the sasaeng fans showing too much love for the idol.

Sasaeng fans often belong to idol groups, and they follow and stalk their favorite members by using taxi as a mode of transportation. They have caused many problems such as disturbance to the idol's schedules and have even been reported in the news oftentimes.

Yoseob is taking the first step to encountering this big problem.
 


On the 26th of February, Hyunseung also left a message in his YOZM saying "Can the taxi stop following us?", which is directly pointing to the same sasaeng fans.

Dance Copier Machine YoSeob Dances to Ring Ding Dong


Yoseob showed off his dance skills once again.

On the 26th February broadcast of KBS2TV’S 100 Points Out Of 100, Yoseob once again showed off a copy of Onew from Shinee’s dance Ring Ding Dong perfectly.
Nowadays, Yoseob has the nickname ”Dance Copying Machine”. He can proudly copy dances by different artists in a very short time.

But today the Ring Ding Dong dance had very fast moves and high difficulty, so everyone was very interested to know whether Yoseob would successfully copy it.
Yoseob coolly managed to reproduce the Ring Ding Dong dance after watching Onew do it for about 30 seconds, leaving everyone speechless with surprise.

The other guests praised him by saying that ‘he really is a dance prodigy.’
