There’ve been a few articles in the past about how SECRET didn’t have cell phones. While guesting on MBC’s ‘Quiz to Change the World‘ recently, the girls revealed that they still lacked cell phones.

On October 22nd, SECRET confessed, “Many people don’t believe us, but we haven’t had cell phones for two years and we are the only ones allowed in our dorm.”

The members took to the opportunity to send a direct message towards their agency CEO. Song Ji Eun said, “We are not quadruplets. Last time, he said he would buy us bags so he picked them out, but he picked the same bag in the same color for all four of us. I remember just giving up at that point.”

Han Sunhwa also stated, “I agree. Our CEO thinks that a girl’s dorm has to be pretty. However, he’s particularly obsessed with the toilet paper holder. He is very adamant about making sure a girl’s bathroom’s toilet paper holder is pretty. I wish he would care about other things as well.”

After hearing SECRET’s complaints, comedian Song Eunee recalled, “Sunhwa is frustrated because she doesn’t have a cell phone. When I saw her today, she greeted me extra happily saying, ‘Unni, I borrowed my friend’s phone around your birthday and sent you a text.’ That was back in January.”

Comedian Kim Shin Young also added, “Once in a while, Han Sunhwa calls me with somebody else’s phone. Then she asks, ‘Unni, why don’t you answer your phone?’ So I answered, ‘How can I pick up a number I don’t know?’ to which she replied, ‘That’s me’.”

With one voice, Ji Eun and Sunhwa stated, “Next year, we would like to have cell phones.”

BONUS: Logan Lerman (~Rogan Lemon~) is a Shy Boy

During an interview with a Korean TV Program, Logan mentioned that he was shy, 
prompting the interviewer to break into song at 1:43. Logan joins him at 6:10.

Wow, I didn't know Jeon Hyunmoo (the guy interviewing Logan Lehrman) had such good English. Well, at least passably good. His accent is quite nice.

Is it even legal to stop them from buying one? Also their management seems a bit odd, I've seen plenty of rookier groups with phones.

on secret story? that was before debut, they usually take the cellphones away after debut.

& they probs use their manager's phone

No. I think it was like one of those look-through-our-bags thing. Also Sunhwa had one for Invincible Youth.

o that post it was an itouch in zinger's bag but no phones in their bags.

lmao if she had one for IY it probably is her manager's, if not Shinyoung wouldn't be complaining about her calling with an unknown number anw.

From: [identity profile] royalantares.livejournal.com
Oh okay. I was like lol are they still keeping up this facade when they blatantly showed us their phones?

What Shinyoung said could be scripted tho.

From: [identity profile] fallingstarryuu.livejournal.com
lol there were like two posts on the cell phone thing & the only comment made about them faking it was by a troll of all people.

if they really did have it would they be complaining about it so much?

Date: 2011-10-25 06:01 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] royalantares.livejournal.com
Maybe, maybe not. They complain about s.o.'s and we all know how that's going.

I've always found that whole 'no cellphones allowed' thing rather ridiculous..

That interview was quite possibly the best movie promotion interview I've ever seen, it was so much fun ^^ I've always giggled at interviews that guy has done in the past but his English was great and I love how he was just as funny in English as he is in his own language :o)

didn't we already have a similar article here ages ago, and somebody posted a video where they did have cellphones? am i imagining things?

Date: 2011-10-25 05:36 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] fallingstarryuu.livejournal.com
um that video is probs from secret story which is prior to their debut, the phones probably got confiscated when they debuted.

they have a itouch & ipad tho so idg the deal

At least the girls are allowed to have iPads/iPod Touches...It seems that if they're allowed to have those fancier gadgets, they ought to be able to have cell phones! Come on now!

Also, Logan Lerman is adorable playing along with the Shy Boy thing.

Anyone remember Isak's interview about how some female idols aren't allowed to have cell phones, and are only allowed to use the phone in the dorm to call the manager to let him know they were home?

Um these are grown ass women. Let them have cell phones and friends over, damn.

The CEO pings my creeper radar. Especially with the bathroom holder comment and paying so much attention to their room along with limiting how they can communicate with people.

that interview made my day.
especially the "you really know how to make me feel uncomfortable" bahahaha

From: [identity profile] clayray3290.livejournal.com
Just read the interviews on 10Asia where it was casually mentioned that they're essentially not allowed to leave their dorms except for work, too. So basically, their only way of communication with people outside Secret/TS is at work or through the internet.

For the most part, I heart TS, but this is ridiculous. If they want longevity for Secret (which is what they seem to be going for rather than instant popularity, considering their promotion choices) then it would make sense to allow the girls to network and build those connections. Especially since TS is such a small company and thus can't have that many connections in the first place.

I'm half tempted to suggest that the next fan present project be just to buy them phones, haha.
