Kangta, who was in a company like Shin Dong-yeop 20 years ago, said, "At that time, we were able to stand on the stage because of the recommendation of Shin Dong-Yup, who was a benefactor of Shin Dong- Kangta expressed his gratitude to Shin Dong-yeop, saying, "I am MC, so please put HOT on the stage together." Shin Dong-yeop, who was the most popular comedian at the time, took off his feet to help HOT stand on the stage once more. Shin Dong-yeop said, "When I was touring the nation at the Speed 012 concert, which was the biggest concert at that time, I was in charge of MC there." He said, "Before the event started, HOT took on the preliminary performance." Shin Dong-yeop then recalled the situation at the time, saying, "Suddenly word-of-mouth began to spread, and people from the third city gathered too much." Han Hye-jin, the model who heard the story together, responded with surprise, saying, "There was no SNS at the time." Kangta said, "I was also grateful to see a white underwear when I was dancing on stage.

So Shin Dong-yeop said, "White panties almost felt like diapers" 

HOT is about to hold a solo concert on October 13th and 14th, which is 17 years after the last concert in 2001 when the members participated together.
