The brain behind some of the most successful and most popular idol groups of Korea turned out to be an idol fanboy.


On June 13, Bada appeared on MBC’s Radio Star and talked about funny things that happened when she was performing in the first generation idol group, S.E.S., back in the late 90s.

She talked about a time when Park Jin Young came into the group’s waiting room, holding a guitar, and sang them a song.

“At the time, security was so tough that it was hard to get close with other singers,” Bada explained, “But Park Jin Young was the one singer who broke through the body guards and came into our room.”

“Park Jin Young said, ‘So you’re S.E.S. You look like dolls. Can I touch your hair ties?” Bada added, “I think he was fascinated with us.”

Then Bada talked about how Park Jin Young had come into their room with a guitar because he prepared a song for them “We were very touched by the fact that he sang a song for his juniors.” She said, expressing gratitude towards Park Jin Young.
