“When you work aboard, your feelings towards your hometown gets stronger, and you feel the pressure more. The people who loves us, supports Korea with love, so it makes us want to do even better too.” Also, “Recently there are many artists that get attention from all around the world, therefore even before they go anywhere, the fans get to know Korea and has love towards Korea”.

Yoochun is currently on KBS 2TV drama “SungKyunKwan Scandal”, he said “In order to act as a Confucian Scholar I need to study “Analects” and learn how to become a truly important person,” and “It seems that in order to make Korea bigger, we need to protect the system/methods and consider the other sides feelings as well”, which caught the viewers’ eyes.
