[NEWS] 100210 Girls' Generation’s Ideal Man: Actor Song Seunghun, Yunho semi-finalist

Girls Generation chose 33-year-old actor Song Seunghun as their ideal man. You would think that members of girl group Girls Generation would be attracted to guys that also belong to K-pop groups, or at the very least those within their age level.

Wrong.

Instead, the nine members of Girls Generation chose 33-year-old actor Song Seunghun as their ideal man.

The girls — Taeyeon, Sunny, Seohyun, Yoona, Yuri, Sooyoung, Hyoyeon, Jessica and Tiffany — were the guests on the Korean TV program “Sweet Night” last February 7, 2010.

In the program, they were asked to select their ideal man by pitting two male idols through a knockout type selection. The girls were made to choose among Super Junior’s Siwon and Heechul, 2PM’s Nichkhun and Taecyeon, SHINee’s Minho, Big Bang’s G-Dragon and TOP, TVXQ’s Yunho, SS501’s Kim Hyun Joong, Lee Seungki, Jang Geun-suk, Kim Namgil and Song Seunghun. (*Yunho semi-finalist.)

In the end, the girls chose Song.

Song starred in “Autumn Fairy Tale” and “Scent of Summer,”. He also starred in the drama series “East of Eden”, “Law Firm” and “City of God.”

His role in “East of Eden,” allowed Song to win the Daesang and Popularity Awards in the 2008 MBC Drama Awards. He was also awarded Most Popular Actor and Photogenic in the 2000 KBS Acting Awards.

On the same show, people who became part of their lives before and after they became idols also surprised the girls.

One of them was a manager from a Chinese restaurant that delivered food to Girls Generation for seven years. A fan of Yuri, the manager would always provide free dishes to all the members because of her idol.

There was also a soldier who had a crush on Hyoyeon in grade school, admitting that she was the first person to make him cry. The reason? He was so sad that he won’t be able to see Hyoyeon anymore after graduation.
Hyoyeon was able to identify him from the five soldiers who were presented in the show.
