Q: What was the period in your life that you felt was a battle?
Yunho: When we debuted. And also the first time we performed on Kouhaku Utagassen! For the people that only knew about Tohoshinki’s songs, I also wanted to show that our dance performances were also great! So I put all my efforts into dancing as best as I could! I was extremely nervous but also incredibly happy. I put on a spell on myself, that now I would achieve this dream.
Changmin: For me it was standing on the stage for the SM Town live after starting Tohoshinki as two members. Ever since debuting, this was the first time I had been that nervous.
Q: Tell us how you overcame these hurdles.
Yunho: I enjoyed myself. Never ran away. Because it’s not only about me but for the happiness of the people around me.
Changmin: I surrendered to my body. If my body was able to do it, I would be able to face and stand up to any hurdle.
Q: What are you tricks with romance? (T/N: like pick up lines, etc)
Yunho: Don’t really do that kind of thing~.
Changmin: It’s more that we aren’t able to do, rather that simply not do.
Yunho: It’s not possible to do any such tricks. I’d be too much in a daze. (laugh) (T/N: as in he’d be too distracted by the girl to do anything xP)
Changmin: I wouldn’t be able to see anyone except her. In respect to romance, I’m not that type that uses his head very well.
Yunho: For both Changmin and I, we are both simple when it comes to romance. We become instinctive. That’s why if ever someone is loved by Changmin, they will definitely realise without it being said!
Changmin: I will realise it too then. (laugh)
Q: Do you have anything to help you through difficult times?
Yunho: More than an item, it’s more like I cast a spell on myself so that I believe in myself. And then I pound myself on the chest.
Changmin: He does it until it hurts!
Yunho: No no, ahh it’s more like 2 or 3 times. (laugh)
Changmin: I don’t believe in things like jinxes or anything. I’ve never thought about stuff like that up until now. I always believe in myself and as long as I’m with Yunho I’ll be fine.
Yunho: Wow!!
Changmin: I gain strength when we’re together.
Yunho: That’s cause your always teasing me!
Q: As artists, what kind of things do you want to accomplish in the future?
Yunho: I want to work hard so that people can see us and think, “Even after a long time, it’s expected from Tohoshinki right?”. There have been various incidents, and slowly, I want to show the special points that have matured in us.
Changmin: Becoming from 5 people to 2, during the photo shoot and the PV shooting, I realized that there will be more things in the future that I will have to face with just the two of us. This means we will have to evolve more, and become the “us” that people are waiting for.
Q: Who’s more competitive from the two of you?
Yunho: I’m competitive!
Changmin: I don’t think I’m very competitive. I myself am not that interested in these things so I don’t mind if I lose. My thinking is more like, “Any result is fine with me”. (laugh)
Yunho: Maybe it’s not the result that’s important. What’s more important to me is putting all my strength into the goal and working hard for it.
Q: Give us some tips in making our dreams come true.
Yunho: Believe in yourself. Even if it is a difficult road, someday you will attain the desired result. Even if you feel like turning back at times, don’t run away from it and little by little you will get closer to achieving your dream.
Changmin(applauded silently): I think for me it’s because I’m being mentored by the Star Young. It’s because Young has been with me all this time that I was able to make it this far.
Yunho: Liar!(laughs loud) Yeah, right! (T/N: a sarcastic tone. Implies that Changmin is teasing him ^_^)
Q: Speaking about the other, what are some areas that they would never lose at?
Yunho: Changmin always win a the soccer game “Winning Eleven” …(sigh)
Changmin: I wonder how many books each of us has read up till now?
Yunho: Both of us like reading books, but I’m not sure who’s read more. On another note, right now I’m reading a book called “The Secret”.
Changmin: Aren’t you just looking at it instead of reading it? (laugh)
Q: How do you follow up each other’s weaknesses?
Yunho: It’s not with words but with the atmosphere. By reading the atmosphere we help each other out. For us, specific strategies never work. (laugh) Until now we’ve been living together for a long time and living our lives together so even without telling each other explicitly we understand.
Changmin: There are never any situations where I have to help out Young! He’s the perfect leader!!
Yunho: Oh no~(laugh) (T/N: yunho said this in english) I’m not perfect~.
Q: Who has better luck from the two of you?
Yunho: I don’t believe in luck. I think you attain things through hard work. Even from the beginning with Tohoshinki started, I don’t think it was luck but the continuous hard work that we put in has changed into luck now. For example recently I was in the musical “Goong”, and we weren’t given much rehearsal hours. But after they saw me practicing continously by myself, they gave me more rehearsal time at the studio!
