Leaving the stage, concerning about their progress…
- Their pain has been carried on about a year, the two finally decided to start activities again as Tohoshinki after a long time. Yunho and Changmin restarting their activities with a new single ‘Why (Keep Your Head Down)’

YH: Although this year is considered as a painful period but at the same time it’s about our growth. Rather than looking back at the past I will concentrate right now. I constantly think about how to go on. Because of the time we left the stage, it let us experience the joy of performing on stage again. After watching LIVE from younger generations during Tohoshinki’s activity suspension period, I always think “we also want to perform on stage as soon as possible”.

- The two said “Now our hearts are often thinking about want to see our fans as soon as possible.”

YH: We performed on stage in SMTOWN last year. I saw some audiences cried, those tears deeply stabbed our hearts. Because of this, we want to stand on stage again as soon as possible and deliver the ‘smile’ to everyone.

- Yunho filmed drama “Heading to the Ground” and performed in musical “Goong”. Changmin also filmed drama “Paradise Ranch”. Both worked on acting during the past year, these experience allowed them to mature.

CM: I was able to look at each other’s work objectively through our solo activities. Yunho’s passion towards work made me think I must learn from him. Because he goes to  acting classes, to training and to practice choreography. Although I have seen his work as a partner up until now, but to look at him from outside of the group, I respect a lot of his hard work.

YH: I also went to visit Changmin during he filming the drama. Though he is the youngest but he is a very reliable person! The Changmin I saw was different than the Changmin in front of me. I faced some troubles recently and during our talks he gave me good advices, I really feel Changmin become more mature.

“We are fire and water. We express feeling differently and our personality are totally opposite.”
- With their solo activity experiences, the two had return with more charisma. “Why (Keep Your Head Down)” received explosion of charm. The high pitched voice along with powerful performance and lyrics with distressed feelings, this song kicked off as a start of Toshoshinki’s activity.

CM: I am high pitched and Yunho is the bass, the alto is missing. To be honest we felt very uneasy at the beginning, we didn’t know what to do. But now this became a great song.

- The two different charisma created a chemistry reaction that is incorporated into the album.

YH: Not only our voice but we also have many things that are completely opposite. For example, I am the type that likes the crowd,  likes to go out with friends. Changmin likes quiet and stays home. Our interest are different. My room is very simple, Changmin’s room is filled with games and many audio equipments, very fulfilling. That’s why he doesn’t go out much. Even though we live together but we don’t see each other very often. To me, I feel lonely.

CM: Though we live in different rooms now but we shared the same room in the past. We lived together for 7 years already, is good we don’t see each other occasionally (laughs). What if we continue to share the same room? I don’t want that. When Yunho is here, the room will immediately become a mess (laughs).

YH: That’s true, at that time when I was throwing out stuff Changmin is packing  for me from behind. This is also something that we are totally opposite.

- The way of love are also different

CM: Yunho express love very directly, is very manly but little slow (laughs).

YH: True. I always forget things. Sometimes I didn’t even do anything but stuff just fell by itself. The books on the table all fell down and it immediately breaks some stuff.

CM: Normal days he look like a perfect man, in fact he is absent-minded. This distinction can stimulate female’s women instinct. Girls will unintentionally think ‘I must do anything to help him’ so tricky ahh~

YH: Changmin is the type that will care for you gently and are considerate to his partner. He pays more attention to the atmosphere, he is a planner of romantic atmosphere. For the girl that he likes, he shows firm gentleness.

CM: Even if you forget other people’s birthday you need to remember the birthday of the person you like. Even if you forget your own phone number but you must remember the number of the person you like. To me, the person that I like is number one, that person exist specially in my heart.

YH: Great, this is very popular!

- About blood type, Yunho is A (a serious type), Changmin is B (a careless type) 
Yunho said, “to express emotions I feel I am B and Changmin is A.”

YH: Anyway, I really like to play with bunch of friends, go bowling and go on trips. At those time I always think about, it will be more happier if Changmin is here. But even if I invite him he won’t come.

CM: If Yunho is at that place, the place will become very lively, I have headache at those dynamic environment.

YH: Sometime ago, I called him and said “Right now I’m at the cafe”, he replied, “I haven’t go for a long time I want to go.” I was expected him to come, but later he called me and said “I couldn’t make it today.” I was disappointed. In fact, I want to tell him “I want you to hangout with me more!”

CM: ahh~ I will think about it.

- The calm Changmin and mischievous Yunho highlights two different charms.

CM: Despite that there are many things we are different but our hearts are connected. We think the same on things like the trust on people, the priority of precious things and the values of important people.

YH: That’s why Changmin and I can understand each other without words. Even if we don’t talk it out we are able to immediately understand each others mind.

- Since is only two people now, is it more important to understand each other?
They answered, “This is what it suppose to be.”

CM: In the future it will be two of us, we want Tohoshinki to advance, even if we are gone, our music can continue exist. We want more people to remember our high quality entertainment.
