(Video) SUPER JUNIOR Shindong Reveals What Really Happens Behind the Scenes of Idol Dating
Dating in the K-pop industry is often a topic approached with caution, and sometimes outright avoidance. It's not uncommon for idols to be under strict no-dating policies. Furthermore, these rules are meant to help them stay focused and maintain a clean image among fans. Whether it's due to parasocial dynamics or the fear of public scrutiny, romantic relationships continue to be a taboo subject in Korean entertainment. However, during a recent YouTube interview titled 'We Asked Shindong Questions We Were Curious About,' SUPER JUNIOR (슈퍼주니어) member Shindong (신동) spoke openly about dating as an idol. His honest and unfiltered responses surprised both fans and the interviewer. During the conversation, host JM asked Shindong whether he often meets members of the opposite gender as a celebrity. In response, Shindong said dating is possible, for those who put in the effort. If he wanted to pursue someone, he explained, he could ask for numbers at broadcasting stations. Additionally, the idol also mentioned that he could approach fellow celebrities during industry meetups. However, despite having those opportunities, he emphasised that he's never acted on them. Shindong went on to point out that confidence plays a major role in how many idols find romantic partners. According to the dancer, several of his friends have successfully started relationships simply by being bold enough to make the first move. As for himself, he admits to receiving messages in his inbox but rarely feels compelled to reply, noting that online personas can differ significantly from real-life interactions. When asked about his future plans regarding marriage, Shindong shared that he once set a personal goal to tie the knot by the age of 48. However, recently, his perspective has shifted. These days, he finds himself thinking more about starting a family. He's even expressed a growing desire to have a child. Some of his friends have advised him not to wait too long. After all, starting a family can become more difficult with age, he's also taking into consideration. Although he hasn't made any firm decisions just yet, Shindong's openness provides a rare glimpse into the personal life of an idol navigating both fame and future aspirations. In an industry where romantic topics are often kept behind closed doors, his honesty brings a refreshing layer to the ongoing conversation around love, relationships, and adulthood in the K-pop world.

(Video) Demi Lovato Explains Recent 'Camp Rock' Reunion Performance With The Jonas Brothers
Earlier this week, Demi Lovato and the Jonas Brothers made headlines when they staged a surprise reunion performance, delivering a medley of songs from their hit Disney Channel film 'Camp Rock'. After wowing fans with 'This Is Me', the songstress and lead singer Joe Jonas performed their duet 'Wouldn't Change a Thing', sending a wave of nostalgia through the crowd. Since then, many have been curious about how the performance came together and who first proposed the idea for the surprise reunion. In a recent interview on the 'Chicks in the Office' podcast, the pop star shared more behind-the-scenes details about the gig, as well as updates on her upcoming music. When asked how the 'Camp Rock' reunion performance came about, Demi revealed that it was Joe Jonas who called her to propose the idea. 'He called me last week, 'Hey, what are you doing on the 10th? We would love to have you perform 'This Is Me' and 'Wouldn't Change a Thing'. You've been a huge part of our journey, and we would love to have you there.' It was so nice — and it was healing for me too,' she told the hosts before adding that she immediately accepted the invitation to do the show. She described the moment on stage as a full-circle experience, as they had first performed the songs together in the film. She added that the Jonas Brothers had visited her in her dressing room before the show, where they spent time catching up and got to know her husband, Jordan 'Jutes' Lutes. The 32-year-old shared that they thanked her profusely for agreeing to do the performance with them. 'It was just so thoughtful, and I felt very appreciated. It was really healing for us, and I loved it. Every second of it was so great,' she stated. Aside from the surprise 'Camp Rock' reunion, Demi Lovato also shared details about her upcoming album.
