Jang Woo-hyuk Talks About H.O.T's Reunion on MBN's 'GabojaGO'

On December 21, singer Jang Woo-hyuk opened up about the full reunion of H.O.T during the final episode of MBN's variety show 'GabojaGO' Season 3, which left a lasting impression on viewers.

Hosts Ahn Jung-hwan and Hong Hyun-hee met with various guests, including the original star couple Lee Sang-hae and Kim Young-im, popular mukbang YouTuber Hibab, and Jang Woo-hyuk from the legendary idol group H.O.T.

The episode began with the hosts visiting the home of Lee Sang-hae and Kim Young-im, who recently moved from a standalone house to an apartment. They expressed their appreciation for the apartment's Han River view but humorously noted the downsides, such as being unable to avoid each other in the smaller space.

The couple shared a surprising anecdote about almost getting divorced, revealing they had mistakenly gone to the police station instead of the courthouse to finalize their separation.

Next, the hosts visited Hibab, who boasts 1.65 million subscribers. They explored his pantry filled with frozen foods, kimchi, drinks, and an impressive stock of 250 ramen packets. When asked about his YouTube earnings, Hibab revealed he makes around 100 to 120 million KRW monthly, with total earnings estimated between 4 to 5 billion KRW, showcasing his immense popularity.

Finally, Jang Woo-hyuk's home, resembling a mini botanical garden, was filled with numerous plants. He shared that he had accumulated around 40 to 50 plants over time. While showing off a pair of limited-edition shoes from 'Back to the Future,' he mentioned purchasing them at an auction for about 5 million KRW in 2015.

When asked about his debut as a singer, Jang Woo-hyuk explained that opportunities were limited back then, and he was scouted after participating in a dance competition. He recounted how Lee Soo-man personally came to persuade his parents to allow him to sign with SM Entertainment, leading to his dramatic entry into the music industry.

Looking ahead, Jang Woo-hyuk shared his plans for the future, stating he has been active with album releases and fan meetings since H.O.T's concert and is preparing to release his third studio album next year. He hinted at exciting developments for H.O.T, raising anticipation among long-time fans.

The final episode of 'GabojaGO' Season 3 captured the stories of various friends, showcasing the lives of celebrities and public figures across the country, fulfilling the show's mission to connect with those they have always wanted to meet.
