Super Junior's Eunhyuk and DinDin Clash Over 'Conscientious Celebrity' Image
On the 30th, the YouTube channel 'Donghaemul and Baekdu Eunhyuk' released a video titled 'The Second Epik High Incident: DinDin Teases Super Junior All Day.' In the video, guest DinDin met with Super Junior members Eunhyuk and Donghae to catch up.
During the conversation, Donghae mentioned DinDin's appearance on the YouTube channel 'Workman,' saying, "DinDin is being talked about a lot as a conscientious celebrity these days." Eunhyuk, visibly annoyed, joked, "Are you happy about that? Are you sending all your senior and junior colleagues down while you rise as the conscientious celebrity? Is that what you wanted?"
DinDin responded, "Kyuhyun contacted me and said, 'Hey DinDin, there's trouble. Eunhyuk says he's going to kill you.' I told him, 'Eunhyuk doesn't fall into that category, so he doesn't need to be upset,'" causing laughter on set.
DinDin expressed his frustration, saying, "That wasn't my intention. It was edited to be provocative because it's a broadcast." Eunhyuk jokingly replied, "It wasn't the editing; you actually said it like that." DinDin retorted, "But why are you upset? I don't think you're that kind of celebrity. You don't need to be offended."
DinDin further explained, "I just wanted to point out how the world works. I even appeared in the news. You've known me for a long time, and if I didn't have any sense, you wouldn't have kept in touch with me."
Previously, DinDin appeared on the web variety show 'Workman' alongside former MBLAQ member Lee Joon as a one-day café worker. During the show, when Lee Joon asked a café employee, "Don't you earn 10 million won a month?" DinDin humorously countered, "This is the problem with celebrities. They have no concept of currency value," adding, "They drive supercars and use Jennie's bed, so they're out of touch," earning him the 'conscientious celebrity' image.
