Everyone recognizes me at the spa now. The other day, I was at the spa that is inside the complex where I live. I took a shower and was drying my hair when an older man approached me.

He was like, ‘Aren’t you Leeteuk?’ So I told him yes and said hello. He then told me that his son is a celebrity too! He introduced himself as J-Hope’s father.

J-Hope’s father was thrilled to see Leeteuk, as his son — J-Hope — was a huge fan of Super Junior. Leeteuk shared that J-Hope’s father gave him some kind words of encouragement too!
He said, ‘My son loves his Super Junior hyungs.’ He said we, as a sunbae group, should try to stay together as long as we could and really try our best so that we can inspire our hoobae groups — like his son — to do the same.

Leeteuk also mentioned that a few days later, he ended up running into J-Hope’s mother and aunt too.

A few days later, in the complex, some woman came and said hello to me. She was like, ‘Oh you must be working out, that’s amazing!’ I asked her who she was — and she said, ‘I’m Hobi’s mom!’ Another woman next to her also recognized me and greeted me. She was J-Hope’s aunt.

Since then, Leeteuk has actually gotten to know J-Hope’s parents better. In fact, J-Hope’s parents wanted to invite Leeteuk to their house for some home cooked meal. Leeteuk pointed out that he has J-Hope’s mother’s number and she has his.

J-Hope’s mom took my phone number and I have hers. I don’t have J-Hope’s, but I feel like I’ve become pretty close to his family.

Looks like J-Hope’s friendliness runs in the DNA!
