( 신동 ) Shindong ANAN Interview

Shindong “I want to do a talk show with my own name !”

Shindong, the talking prodigy who always laughs while answering for the interview no matter what question.

“If I wasn’t a Super Junior member, I would probably be a businessman, especially in direct-selling. I’ll go to each house and say, ‘Pin~pon, Hello miss would you like to try on this product ?’. Don’t you think I will sell well ? (laughs).”

The cool ‘Super Show’ must also have some funny episodes right ?

“When we went to Singapore in February, I performed a dance in a girl’s clothes. It was a performance where I showed my silhouette while changing my clothes live on stage behind the pole, but it only had the front. Since the venue had audiences sitting on both sides of the stage, my act of changing clothes was completely visible to them. And to tell the truth, the response was really good than the usual (laughs).”

Shindong who is also the DJ for radio program ‘Shinshimtapa’ is somehow interested in working behind the scenes.

“When I go overseas and couldn’t do the live broadcast for radio, I record the program and send it back to Korea. I wrote the script, do the talk, mixing and compiled them all together. I do it all by myself, and it was quite fun. And for performance, me and Eunhyuk are actually involved in the production for our Super Show. We discuss with the producer on how to make the lighting shines better, or things we had imagined and the director will reform them. It feels really nice. I also want to try and do the stage production for our hoobae someday.”

Aiming for the best TV show

“I’m now able to do blueprint. The title for my TV show will be ‘Shindong Show’. I will call a guest, and we gonna sit and talk first, and the guest will perform his/her special skills to the audiences, that kind of show. It’s my dream to do it with a large-scale in a large venue.”

Things that caught your attention lately ?

“I am naturally born as a machine maniac. I am really interested in the computer construction and programming lately. To be the next Steve Jobs and Bill Gates, I am now reading everything about their biography. Steve Shindong, coming soon !?”

If you had a week for break, what would you do ?

“Can I receive the money as well ? (laughs). I want to go to all amusement parks around the world, and dominate all the famous roller coasters. I’ve been to Universal Studio Japan in Osaka. WaterWorld was the best ! I want to challenge Fuji-kyu next time.”
