[TRANS] 100711 ELLEgirl August Issue - Changmin Q&A

We meet again Changmin~
Q&A on more things we want to know.


Q: This time's theme was "night date". Where would you want to take a girl during the night?
It would be an amusement park, especially one in Japan. I want the both of us to take a ride on the cable cars at night. If it's in Korea, then it's the Seoul Tower. Not only is the night view really pretty, there's a place where couples can get locks to pledge their everlasting love. It's really romantic. By the way, I haven't put up a lock with anyone yet (laughs).

Q: It's been 2 months since your last photoshoot. How's Japan after a long break?
To me, Japan is like my other home. It doesn't feel like I'm coming to a foreign country, it's feels more like I'm traveling within my country. This period of time, recently, I've only been able to stay for two days and a night, so it's a bit sad. My luggage always takes up roughly one bag only.

Q: Your drama shooting has finished, so are you still training your body?
Since the filming ended, I've been eating a lot again and I gained some weight so I have no choice but to train. Everyday, I go to the gym, jog and lift dumbbells, working out for an hour and a half or so. The parts I want to work out the most are my calves. As a man, they're too skinny.

Q: You've been on a break, so have you been going to university?
I can't go as regularly as normal students, but I do go a bit. The coffee in the school cafeteria is really nice.

Q: Where did you watch the Korean matches for the World Cup?
To be honest, I really wanted to watch it outside while drinking beer, but because I had work, I watched it at home with Yunho, who I live with, his friends and our manager, cheering and making a total ruckus. Aside from the Korean matches, I also wanted to watch the other matches in real time, so I'm very sleep deprived (bitter laugh). But because the World Cup is a festival, I didn't feel like it was difficult at all!!

Q: Living with another man, Yunho. The pros and cons?
The bad thing is I can't stand the mess, so I have to clean up the house. It's not that I hate cleaning, but seeing a dirty house makes me frustrated (laughs). Sometimes I would joke to Yunho, "Should we stop living together?" He becomes frantic and apologises immediately. About what's good, because I'm younger, so he always pays for me when we go out. Lucky~ (laughs).

Q: "Friends", "Family", "Lover", "Work", "Myself", please rank the five of these.
Right now, I think it's "Myself" first. Recently, the way I think have changed a little...... If it's something I want to do, I devote myself to it. Next is "Family". After that I think it is "Work", "Lover" and "Friends". Even so, it might change depending on my mood that day. But, if I have to say, from these five, the ones who give me strength are family and lover. Because if I have those two, I can do my best for my job.

Q: Please give a message to all your fans in Japan!
As I'm in the midst of Korean activities now, compared to before, my activities in Japan have certainly gone down. But I feel that working in Japan is really fun, and I really want to show my various sides through activities in Japan. It might take a little while more, but I would like it if you wait for me!
