June 2001
Jihoon adjusted to his new role as the maknae of Shinhwa. With H.O.T now disbanded, all eyes were now on Shinhwa. Almost immediately after the shocking news fans protested outside the building. It got so bad that they threw rocks breaking the glass outside the building.
It was complete chaos and Heejun and Kangta had to lay low on the meantime. The original dorm room that Sooman rented was now Shinhwa's.
"Hey that's not bad. So you're telling you punkasses lived in comfort while we shared a shitty one room apartment? Even the wall is decorated." Eric Mun observed.
"Now this is what I call upgrade." Hyesung mused.
"It's all the essentials and more. The room smells so clean and there is plenty of space for all of us." Minwoo said with glee.
"A man can get used to this. I might turn it into my personal gym. I've been meaning to bulk up." Dongwan said.
"But you're already bulky why do you need to bulk even more?" Junjin asked.
"It's a lifestyle Junjin. You just don't understand." Dongwan replied.
"Bed do I miss you!!" Rain jumped into the soft bed for comfort.
"Careful homie you're gonna break it. Let's make this our territory." Eric declared.
They spent the week personalizing the room into the Changjo mancave. Dongwan had his gym accessories, Junjin had his sports magazines, Eric had his rap CD's, Minwoo had his parent's trot records, and Hyesung imported expensive ceramic from the States. Rain still had his Sega Dreamcast plugged in with all his fighting games.
The boys returned with another mature R&B flare. Instead of flashy clothes to criticizing social norms, Shinhwa was a group that embraced masculinity. It was the perfect group for Rain to partake in. His already athletic build has already labeled him a sex symbol. He was poised to live up to that image.
"Where's Andy hyungs?" Rain asked Eric.
"He's in America right now. He said his mom wasn't feeling all to well so he's staying abroad for now." Eric explained.
"He wasn't there when he stressed out over the news. The man practically flipped out on us." Dongwan recalled.
"I would be too if my mom had a terminal sickness!" Junjin said.
"Don't even mentioned terminal sickness guys. Jihoon is still recovering from watching over Hwansung." Minwoo explained.
The day Andy discovered his mother's condition was the day he quickly left towards America. The Shinhwa boys have been in touch with Andy ever since. It has been about.
"That was a rather stressful time for all of us. I hope Andy's mother gets all the medical attention she deserves. She was very sweet when she visited us." Hyesung recalled Andy's mother bringing in a macaroni casserole, an American staple.
"Shit has been crazy since the breakup of H.O.T, practically all of its fans rioted. At least your fans seem to be alright for now. Anyways that means Shinhwa can finally take things to overdrive. All eyes are now going to be on us so let's show them what we're all about. Shinhwa's bouta rollin." Eric said.
"~Keep Rollin Rollin Rollin Rollin Rollin." Rain hummed a Limp Bizkit song. Eric joined followed by Minwoo until Junjin and Dongwon joined in for a rock style acapella.
Shinhwa was back in effect. Rain stood out immensely as he was their main center. He danced a majority of the song and even helped Minwoo with his footworks. The Golden Maknae was back once again.
