On November 2, a new episode of KBS Kpop's YouTube show 'Eunchae's Star Diary', featuring SUNMI as the guest, was unveiled.
While speaking with Hong Eunchae, SUNMI discovered that Hong Eunchae was born in 2006, which is only a year before her debut as a member of disbanded girl group Wonder Girls.
SUNMI gasped in shock, then commented, "Oh, in that case, you must not know Wonder Girls' songs like 'Tell Me' (2007) or 'Nobody' (2008)."
Following that, she asked, "You know how dance challenges are a thing nowadays, right? Is it correct that Wonder Girls started it?"
Shyly, SUNMI answered, "I guess you could say that. Back in the day, people would gather in a public area for 'Tell Me' dance challenges. I remember one dance challenge being done in prison. In that video, you can see prisoners dancing to 'Tell Me' together."
She continued, "I had no time to really feel the popularity of 'Tell Me' though. When we were promoting 'Tell Me', we were always busy. My days went like... Our dorm, beauty salon, broadcasting studios and festivals. All I did besides work was sleep. It was much later when I realized how popular it was."
After thanking her, SUNMI stated, "If you've been in the industry for like 17 years, then you'll become like that as well."
She added, sounding excited, "And I'm just finding you so cute, Eunchae. You're so cute! I can't get over your cuteness!"
Their cute sunbae-hoobae moment put a smile on everyone watching the show.
