It had been said that Super Junior Eunhyuk had cried once in Japan because of a cookie bag.
On the SBS show "Yashimmanman 2" which was aired on July 6th, Super Junior's Leeteuk, Eunhyuk, Kangin and Yesung had been guests.
Leeteuk said "Once we had activity in Japan, we decided that we will buy ice-cream for each member, staff and manager. But then, instead of ice-cream, Eunhyuk took a cookie bag which I asked him 'What are you doing?' and then suddenly he cried". Eunhyuk responded with "This was the first time in 10 years I heard Leeteuk yell at me" and "I just think it's OK since cookies can be shared with everybody."
Leeteuk said "Eunhyuk said while crying, 'Hyung also (can) eat it' which I said 'I won't eat it.' In the end, Eunhyuk said that he would pay for the cookie bag, but when we went to the cashier, Eunhyuk put his cookie bag together with the ice-cream so I asked him 'What is it? It's yours. And he said 'But hyung! I don't have any yen,'" which made everybody burst out laughing.
