Super Junior’s Eunhyuk Receives Endless Praise For His Surprisingly “Modest” Car Choice
Super Junior has become one of South Korea’s most beloved and successful veteran K-Pop groups, having been in the industry for 16 years now. With their legendary success, people can’t help but assume that the members divulge in luxury, but Eunhyuk is proving the public wrong with his most recent vlog.
Eunhyuk uploaded a “Drive with me” vlog on his YouTube channel, where he chatted with his viewers about miscellaneous topics during one of his drives. Due to the nature of the car vlog, the fitting topic of the Super Junior member’s car came up. It was here that Eunhyuk revealed that he doesn’t drive a fancy luxurious car, but rather something a little more modest.
He started off the car-related segment by sharing that this is probably the first time ever that his personal car has been revealed on a broadcast.
I think this is the first time that my car is making an appearance. This is my personal car that I use.
— Eunhyuk
He then showed off his super adorable 8-year-old Kia Morning!
I have been driving this car, ‘Good Morning’ ever since 2013. The car is called the ‘Morning’ car, and I believe it’s different from all the morning cars.
— Eunhyuk
It was following his car’s introduction that Eunhyuk dove into the history of his car and the past cars that he once owned.
I used to own two cars in the beginning. I used to have a Porsche and this Morning car, but the Morning is the best.
— Eunhyuk
Eunhyuk continued by sharing the reason why he enjoyed his Kia Morning more than his Porsche.
As I drove them around, I enjoyed this car more than that car [Porsche.] I got a feeling that this car drove better than the Porsche so instead of just ‘Morning,’ I named the car ‘Good Morning.’
— Eunhyuk
The Super Junior member broke it down even more by revealing the specific reasons why he decided to keep the Kia and sell his Porsche.
So after that, I sold the Porsche and have been driving this car ever since. I used to have a lot of greed with cars in the past but as other celebrities may know, we don’t have many reasons to drive ourselves. I drive around near my place and maybe in downtown Seoul. So it’s more comfortable driving a small, compact car. I have also grown an attachment to it, which is why I have been driving it until now.
— Eunhyuk
After his car reveal, Korean netizens couldn’t help but share their praises for Eunhyuk’s “modest” car choice despite being able to afford other luxury car brands.
- “He’s so cool ㅎㅎ”
- “This is amazing. If I had as much money as him, I would want to buy an expensive car and show it off to people ㅋㅋㅋ the power of his wealth is unbelievable.”
