SHINee’s Minho Teases Stray Kids’ Lee Know About Their Shared Name In Their First “Legendary” Interaction

The interaction was everything fans had been hoping for.

Although many idols often share the same name, which can confuse some new K-Pop fans, there are certain idols that are “impossible to mix up.” The “Minhos,” for instance, distinguish themselves with their different talents and visuals, and the help of a few stage names.

Some of “the Minhos” include SHINee‘s Minho

Lee Know: Ah, no, no.
