Super Junior’s Shindong recalls nearly fighting Yesung while members watched excitedly
Shindong said he almost had a big fight with Yesung.
An SM Entertainment idol shared the story on the July 24th episode of the MBN and Channel S show Moo No Plan 4. On the episode, Jun Hyun Moo and Kwaktube visited a popular restaurant in Hapcheon with Super Junior’s Shindong, their “food buddy.”
Jun Hyun Moo asked:
“Whenever Super Junior comes up, the stories always involve members fighting. Have you ever fought with someone?”
Shindong replied:
“It wouldn’t be right if I didn’t share a fighting story. There was a time I almost had a big fight with Yesung.”
Shindong recalled:
“I was on a strict diet and trying hard to hold back at night. I went to Inkigayo and sat alone on the sofa eating an idol sandwich. I don’t remember exactly what Yesung said, but when he said, ‘You’re eating again?’ it really struck a nerve.”
“It was nothing serious, but since I was dieting and struggling at the time, hearing that made me really angry, so I teased Yesung back. Then Yesung said, ‘Hey, do you want to die?’ and I bluntly responded, ‘Aren’t you a crazy xxxxxxx?’ even though he’s a hyung.”
“Since Yesung is slim, I thought I could win. I even did judo when I was younger. The members nearby didn’t step in but gathered around with excited looks like they were waiting for a show. The manager eventually came and stopped us”
making everyone laugh.
Shindong also ranked the fighting ability among Super Junior members, saying:
“In my opinion, first place would be Siwon. He practices taekwondo and learned boxing while acting in dramas.”
“Second place is a bit ambiguous, but I think I’m either second or third. Donghae would fight well too—he’s muscular and does boxing. I really can’t beat him in boxing.”
“The rest are all about the same. Last place would definitely be Ryeowook. I think he would fight by playing with cat-like light punches, pinching, and biting”
