Who misses ZE:A Series raise ur hands?.......nah....stop it, you buncha liars....lol. j/k

Wow...once you stop something...it becomes increasingly hard to continue from where you stopped. hmm, let's see...oh well....straight to the point.

This is the 2nd wrapup for ZE:A Series and if previously we talked about maknae-line, this post is dedicated to the middle/center line of ZE:A, the 89-line.

and i really don't feel like making picspam now...bcuz i'll need to pick pictures n blabla...

so let's talk and read some interview and watch videos about 89-line.

Who?

Junyoung, Taeheon, Heecheol...who are also 3/4 of ZE:A's 2nd sub-unit, ZE:A4U

ZE:A's Leader and two rappers(well, before Minwoo suddenly is a rapper too)

---

ZE:A's Leader is actually the fourth eldest out of the nine members^^.

he was known as one of the main vocals/vocal-line...before suddenly his position/parts in songs shrunk to wherever...-_-

Junyoung the (emotional) leader of ZE:A, may not be familiar to some newer casual fans, since he didn't promote with the group mostly during their promotion for Aftermath and Phoenix due to injury(though he still appeared in the MVs)...but in the early days, he's actually one of the most popular members for being a former ulzzang and his so-called resemblance to DBSK/JYJ Micky Yoochun. Junyoung's mom runs a (small?) restaurant business and Junyoung mentioned in predebut show that he's used to hard life and found things too easy in the city life...umm, ok, i think. Junyoung is best friends with Kwanghee, and they met during their school uniform modelling days back in highschool i think...Kwanghee was in Star Empire n Junyoung was in DSP. Kwanghee invited Junyoung to join him, and Junyoung actually recruited many of ZE:A members himself by watching their UCC videos to find potential candidates...like with Kevin and Minwoo...and he also recruited his school friend, Taeheon. Junyoung may not talk much in interviews or on stage now...but he knows when to step up...like when they began promotion in Japan and had their first major stages, Junyoung always made sure to talk the most/as much as possible in Japanese to interact with the fans and especially noticeable after they ended up performances, Junyoung would immediately get back to the crowd, giving time for s to recollect breath/energy even with himself not taking any rest...i really respect him for that. And you can easily see how much s love him too. Even when he was on hiatus while other members promote, he's not completely out of loop...he's always monitoring s and participate in events that doesn't require him to dance/perform. and share pictures of the members on twitter...lol...promo agent. and as mentioned, Junyoung is emotional, he's one of the crybabies in ZE:A. he also have done a lot of things whether you notice or not, MCing, acting, etc.

^ too bad i've only manage to make one vid for Junyoung's solo parts (well, initially i just planned to do for Siwan anyway...but ended up doing for 5 members so far. lol)

---

Taeheon is mostly known as that quiet member/or the one who always had shades on(back then), or idk....I'm not gonna include the mean comments shallow idiots call him. Taeheon was recruited into ZE:A by Junyoung, his school friend. Junyoung's parents died of cancer when he was younger(before ZE:A existed) n he only has his sister...his image is the tough rapper...but he's actually probably member with the most aegyo n so not tough...hah. and he's actually pretty good at singing i would say. He's fan of Chopper, Rilakkuma, and anything cute. And he's known for being too nice for his own good. One thing i wish is for Taeheon to get an opportunity to be in variety show...i think dating show would suit him the most. because he can't be in any competitive/sports/strength-related shows since he's too nice to be competitive...n i'm not sure if he can be funny by himself on other random shows...but dating show would perfectly show his charms...so please. and btw, he's another crybaby in ZE:A...i think fans adorefeel for his cries the most. n another thing you must know about him, i think nobody will disagree that Taeheon is the King of Fanservice in ZE:A. xD...oh, and also...King of Selca. xD

i really want to do live solo compilation for Taeheon..in fact, next in my to-do solo compilation list is either him or Minwoo...but...unfortunately...i'm drained. nothing harder to do than live solo compilation tbh...at least i wrote a fic for him...xD

---

Heecheol, the maknae of middle line...has the image of arrogant rapper and was the first idol from Jeju...i think. From what i heard he came from well-to-do family...but don't quote me on that. He's known as the troublemaker predebut time and continued to have grumpy-cold.misunderstood(?) image and another image of flirt n vampirish image, and as s say, he just has the style/charms that attract women. He's actually pretty funny when he's not being too mean, and out of the members i think he's the one who had showed the most interest to go into acting...and from glimpses of his cameos...I'd say he has the talent for it n i don't really get why it's taking him so long to be noticed...he's also known as the member with good variety sense next to Kwanghee(and he's in a few variety shows himself...but the shows didn't become well...successful?) he's also known for his unique laughter, unique/interesting voice and his love for uhm, Hello Kitty. he's also kinda ....philosophical?..and sometimes tweeted complicated/deep words on twitter back when he had one before he deactivated it...oh, and he's also known to love singing trot...or that's the idea i get since he's always so enthusiastic singing trot...xD (well, him n kwanghee...n both also were into girlgroup dances...maybe not so much anymore but yeah)

bonus, 89-line in action!

and another bonus: i've posted this before...but in case you missed it...

TRIPLE TALK PART 2
ZE:A’s supporting pillars!
Kindly protects (!?), center team!

Q: Your impression as Junyoung’s brother?
Heechul: Even his appearance is cool……
Taehun: He’s calm down….. He has father-like impression.
Heechul: Yeah. He’s manly.

Q: How do you feel about Junyoung usually?
Heechul: I think audiences saw that he’s very manly. He is a person that knows when he should appear and when he should not!
Taehun: Yeah. Later, when there are only us, he will have the scary father image…..
That type of father won’t show his emotion in front of his children right? Junyoung hyung is also like that type. He takes care of us a lot but he doesn’t show his feeling. (laugh)
Heechul: All of us love Junyoung hyung very much.
Taehun: Yeah. Junyoung hyung, he has natural charisma to lead the members just like a father.
Heechul: That’s right! Maybe because he has leader charisma, the 8 of us can’t despise his existence (laugh).

Q: Your impression as Taehun’s brother?
Heechul: When I first met him, I thought he’s very manly but…
Junyoung: That’s right (laugh). Taehun and I were friends since high school. I invited Taehun to work together with me.
Heechul: As I know him little by little, the atmosphere changed….he is a kind person.

Q: What kind of person Taehun is?
Junyoung: He has the most perseverance among the 9 of us, he is very patient and the way he think is deep, he has motherly character.
Heechul: Yes! He’s like mother (laugh). His appearance looks manly but different from that, his character is delicate, and he is also full of attention, he takes care of people well.
Junyoung: He works his very best no matter what, and he has perseverance, he has the ability to convey people, he’s that kind of person.
Heechul: It’s not only from our point of view as man, he has woman’s character and thinks well like a mother, I think he is such an attentive friend! I compliment him too much huh(laugh)
Taehun: (blush)

Q: Your impression as Heechul’s brother:
Junyoung: Because Heechul came from Jeju, at the beginning he used his dialect. His character is bright, and after he’s getting used with standard language he can speak very well.
Taehun: Heechul’s characters are gentle and vigorous so it won’t take time to befriend with him.
Junyoung: Yeah. I befriended him in a day. He owns that kind of friendly charm.

Q: Heechul’s gap?
Junyoung: Heechul has double personality (laugh).When his mood is good he will be very nice but when his mood isn’t good, it will be mixed up emotion. When he greets everyone with his self-introduction “I am bad guy Heechul,”he himself will turn into an arrogant type (laugh).
Taehun: If you look from his outward appearance, he looks very cold isn’t he? But the truth is he’s not like that, I really think he is warm person.
Junyoung: That’s true. Stranger might not feel Heechul’s warm heart at first. Maybe it’s because his appearance looks sharp. But once you know him, he’s cautious person, really a passionate man!
