SHINee's Onyu expressed gratitude to the members who waited for him during his health-related break. On the MBC show "All Knowing Office" aired on the 2nd in Korea, Onyu's daily life was revealed. He said, "Recently, I've been told that my expression has improved a lot and I look relaxed." Onyu, who paused activities due to health reasons last June, resumed activities in April this year. His manager said, "During the tough times, my heart was very painful. Many people around me were worried. They often asked, 'Are you okay?' So we spent time together enjoying meals and exercising. When I received a message from Onyu, I felt relieved that he was getting better. I want him to always be happy." Jung Hyun-moo asked, "Wasn't it a lot of help from the members during the tough times?" Onyu replied, "I received a lot of help. The members told me they would wait for me. I am very grateful and have been doing well. They said to relax and come back whenever I want." Song Wooni remarked, "Before I knew it, SHINee has all grown up," and Jung Hyun-moo responded, "They are very cool people." Onyu's fan concert was filled with flowers sent by SHINee members. Onyu mentioned that there are fans who send flowers and come to support him directly. Hong Hyun-hee asked if the parents of the other members would come to the performance. Onyu answered, "The parents are also in contact a lot. Sometimes they gather or go to see performances together." Additionally, having become independent from SM, he said, "I have started producing," and "I sing, write lyrics, and try various things, which makes me feel a bit like a self-employed person." Onyu's manager said, "It has been 19 years since I met Onyu," adding, "I know him longer than Zico from Block B. I met him when I was 18 and he was 17, before entering SM, as we both joined the 7th class of the SM Academy together." When the cast asked, "Was the manager a trainee?" Onyu clarified, "The academy is a training school for entertainers," and explained that they regularly met with those who attended the academy together. Onyu's manager, Jang Moon-sung, previously managed Block B's Zico and has also appeared on "All Knowing Office." • SHINee Onyu will hold a birthday party with fans on December 14...
