The MONSTA X unit Shownu X Hyungwon displayed a unique senior-junior chemistry by expressing deep affection and gratitude toward Girls' Generation's Hyoyeon.

Shownu X Hyungwon recently held a roundtable interview at Starship Entertainment's office in Cheongdam-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, to commemorate the release of their second mini-album 'LOVE ME'.

On this day, the two shared their impressions of appearing on Hyoyeon's YouTube content 'Hyori's Water,' which she operates, ahead of their new album release. Shownu said, "Thanks to Hyungwon having built connections last time, we were able to appear to promote our unit," adding, "Especially, I was deeply impressed by Hyoyeon unnie, who worked harder than necessary. As a person, I was truly moved. I will work hard on this promotion with her energy." He expressed his gratitude.

Hyungwon also added his excited reflections, recalling the filming day. He said, "There were so many fun moments that I wanted to run outside while filming," and added, "Thanks to that, my status as the top comedian is now firmly established. Men are Shownu hyung, women are Hyoyeon sunbaenim. It was an incredibly memorable shoot that I will remember for a long time," proving the warm and lively atmosphere on set.

The performance for the new album also fully utilized the two's strength in physicality. When asked which artists they would like to film a new song challenge with, Hyungwon immediately named singer Rain (real name Jung Ji-hoon). Hyungwon said, "I really hope senior Rain does it. I actually saw him at the gym, and his physicality was truly amazing." He added, "We also considered physicality when creating our choreography, so it would be perfect if a senior with such perfect physicality does it," sending a love call.

The highlight that raised fans' expectations to the peak was undoubtedly their plan to participate in 'Waterbomb.' The two, who promised a fiery stage, each chose a descriptor they hoped the other would earn, solidifying their resolve.

Hyungwon joked, "I'm putting everything on the line for this Waterbomb," and added, "My personal goal is for Shownu hyung to definitely take the title 'This is a beast' at Waterbomb. I think his body is really great, but I feel he hasn't yet had a title that showcases it. I hope those aspects are highlighted through this stage." He continued, "It's a body so full of pride that I wouldn't even think 'I want to be like that,' " sending endless praise toward Shownu.

Shyly smiling at Hyungwon's unrestrained praise, Shownu replied, "Then Hyungwon is the 'Waterbomb Face Prince,'" revealing the confidence of a perfect visual unit.

MONSTA X's second mini-album 'LOVE ME' will be released at 6 p.m. on the 21st via various online music sites.
