SHOWNU and HYUNGWON of the group MONSTA X made fans’ hearts flutter with the reliability and confidence unique to “mature men”.

On July 3, SHOWNU and HYUNGWON of MONSTA X, who celebrate the 11th anniversary of their debut, appeared on the YouTube channel “차린건 쥐뿔도 없지만 (Nothing prepared)” (commonly called “차쥐뿔”) to share an open-hearted and humorous conversation over a drink. That day, HYUNGWON and SHOWNU particularly left an impression by creating moments of unprecedented complicity thanks to their characteristic calm aura and their thoughtful words.
Previously, during his solo appearance on the show in 2022, HYUNGWON caused a sensation with Lee Youngji with a simple and spontaneous “Sit down”. In this episode, he revealed alongside SHOWNU an even deeper adult charm.
During the show, when questioned about his vision of love, HYUNGWON first began calmly by confiding: “Basically, I don’t easily trust people and I don’t particularly appreciate them.” However, immediately looking at SHOWNU, the member with whom he shares his activities, he delivered a confession full of sincerity that tinted the set with romanticism: “If it’s about this person, I don’t mind losing to them. This is the only person for whom I can accept everything and give everything, even if I have to lose.” It was a moment that highlighted the “devoted side” unique to HYUNGWON, ready to give everything to his loved ones without making calculations.
SHOWNU also exhaled his charm that was both imposing and subtly impactful. While showing a thoughtful side by evoking anecdotes from Lee Youngji’s debut, he also revealed his nature as a “warm-hearted T” (Thinking type personality in the MBTI) by actively empathizing with the remarks of F (Feeling) profiles. It was an episode where the stable and reassuring charm of SHOWNU shone, which naturally transpired throughout the discussion without needing to do too much.
If the previous “Sit down” had been a memorable thunderbolt, the attitude displayed this time by SHOWNU and HYUNGWON embodied the very definition of an “adult kindness” that gets better with time. This episode of “Nothing prepared”, which captures their authentic charm, is already well on its way to remaining engraved as another “legendary episode” among fans.
