Tony An recently disclosed that he secretly dated without his H.O.T. bandmates knowing.
On the October 3rd episode of SBS's variety show 'My Little Old Boy', Moon Hee-joon, Park Joon-hyung, and Jang Su-won visited Tony An's home.
The group discussed the secretive dating lives of idols at the time. Park Joon-hyung claimed, "I paved the way for male idols to date." In response, Moon Hee-joon remarked, "Dating bans became stricter after that. We were told to wait until we were 30 to date."
When asked about dating locations, Tony An recalled, "Mostly in cars or by the Han River. You'd see a lot of celebrities there." Moon Hee-joon added, "The Han River was like a waiting room for celebrities," while Jang Su-won noted, "The tinting was so dark that we'd roll down windows to greet each other."
Tony An also mentioned secret meetings at broadcasting stations, saying, "If we were on the same show, we'd meet secretly on the second-floor stairs." Moon Hee-joon expressed feeling betrayed, asking, "Were you dating while we were in the waiting room?" Tony An explained, "I needed the energy boost because it was so tough."
