Go Ara, INFINITE’s L, and Super Junior’s Kim Heechul spoke about concepts that their agencies gave them at the beginning of their debuts
During the June 9 episode, Kim Young Chul asked L, “In the past, didn’t you have a mysterious concept in INFINITE?” Soompi
Display.News.English.300x250.BTF Soompi.Mobile.English.300x250.ATF L answered, “Doesn’t every agency have something like that? [They decide] like you’re this concept and this character
” He continued, “For me, it was the mysterious concept. I wasn’t allowed to speak or laugh
If I laughed, I had to turn around and laugh. I got yelled at a lot if I did something that didn’t fit my image
” Kim Heechul said, “In the beginning when I debuted with Super Junior and grew my hair long and sang while waving a fan, we went to China
[The agency] told me not to talk a lot during the interview because I was being called a queen in China
They said that if someone asked me a question, I should hold up the fan and smile and that the other members would answer in Chinese for me
” Go Ara joined in on the conversation and shared her experience as well. The actress said, “I was like that too
I was in the same agency as you. They told me to live like a doll. They told me not to talk wherever I went like a doll
Like a doll. Always.” She asked Kim Heechul, “Wasn’t I a doll before?” and he joked, “Ah, yes
I think I remember you being the Satan’s doll.” Seo Jang Hoon commented, “Wow, idols live a really difficult life
