I’ve been seeing some beanies wonder where Im Siwan comes from ㅋㅋㅋ
He comes from South Korea, clearly. From a boyband named ZE:A (same group with Park Hyungsik), specifically.
The group was underrated back then compared to Infinite/Beast/2PM but recently they went viral in South Korea because K-netz found their old performance videos funny. And just like Kwanghee, another ZE:A members said, it was sad that they got the recognition too late.
He said it’s difficult to gather all 9 members again to re-enact the viral performance. I hope we can get it in 2021…
I also saw Kim Dong Jun in this video. He played the second lead in More Than Friends.
Now I want, Kim Dong Jun, Park Hyung Shik and Im Siwan to reunite in a drama!!
Yes! And they’re good at it. I google-translated some Korean comments on the video and one of them said, “ZE:A company just randomly made a boyband out of talented actors.”
One of the reasons the video went viral is because the song is a about a breakup but ZE:A performed very cheerfully. The choreography is also funny and simple yet the members made lots of mistakes and weren’t in sync at all 😂 that’s why K-netz said they are actors who were forced to be idols.
Some have solo activities or live as normal citizens, maybe that’s why Kwanghee said it would be hard to gather all members again to perform. But I think they still have good relationships with each other, and that’s what’s important.

Poor ZE:A, what could have been. I’m relieved that some of the members have found success acting, presenting
Wonder what’s happened to the others
