Leehan of the group BOYNEXTDOOR revealed that he is a descendant of Kim Jeong-ho, the creator of Daedongyeojido.
On the 11th, the production team of Munhwa Broadcasting Corporation (MBC)'s Where Is My Home released a video on its YouTube channel titled, "A love of feng shui with a reason. Leehan, a descendant of Kim Jeong-ho, the creator of Daedongyeojido," showing BOYNEXTDOOR members Myung Jaehyun, Taesan and Leehan joining host Joo Woo-jae on a property tour.
That day, Taesan drew attention when he pointed out that his wife, who is a painter, had personally created the paintings displayed throughout the house, along with the stylish interior design, saying, "My aunt is also a painter."
In response, Joo Woo-jae said, "It really does seem like artistic families have a certain flair," and Taesan immediately made everyone laugh by replying, "I am not related by blood to my aunt."
Caught off guard by the unexpected fact check, Joo Woo-jae laughed and said, "People are influenced by what they see and hear, after all," adding, "This is the first time someone has corrected me more accurately than I did."
Watching this, Leehan smiled proudly and said, "If you trace my family line back far enough, Kim Jeong-ho is there too. I am from the Cheongdo Kim clan."
Remembering Leehan's earlier show of enthusiasm for feng shui during the property tour, Joo Woo-jae joked, "So you must look at feng shui a lot because you have the blood of Daedongyeojido," drawing more laughter.
Meanwhile, BOYNEXTDOOR released the title track "VIRAL" from its first full-length album, HOME, on the 8th.
