Girls’ Generation (SNSD)’s Sunny shared a story regarding SHINee’s Onew.
During the December 17 broadcast of MBC FM4U’s FM Date, Sunny brought up Onew while talking to Kim Yeon Woo, who appeared as a guest.
Sunny said, “I heard that you’ve gotten close to SHINee’s Onew these days. I heard that Onew has been receiving help from Kim Yeon Woo.”
Kim Yeon Woo said, “His voice got better after the vocal cords surgery. It had been a while since I’ve seen him.
I’ve been trying to make him quit smoking too. I told him to make a promise with me and make it through this time.”
About Onew, who received a vocal cord polyp removal and vocal fold mucosa reconstruction operation on June 3 at a hospital in Seoul,
Sunny said, “I’m a close friend of Onew. We’re the same age. I thank Kim Yeon Woo for sharing that Onew has been struggling these days on broadcast.”
Then Sunny said, “Onew worried a lot about his life as a singer after getting the vocal chords operation. He was like that even before the surgery. As he talked about it, he shared his worries about which direction he should take in the future.”About Onew, Kim Yeon Woo said, “ He was very worried but I think he will do well even
if he releases a solo album in the future. His vocal range got wide and he can make sounds comfortably too. I adore Onew so I’ve been coaching him for free. He has a very good heart too.”
Then Onew jokingly said, “He buys me drinks and gives me lessons for free. I don’t know where I can find a hyung like this,” causing a round of laughter.
