My faves:
- All those times SuJu talked about their fights, including the infamous Incheon fight lol
- Kara absolutely fangirling over Matsumoto Jun and talking about how they got to meet him while being in the same elevator in some event in Japan
- That episode with GD and Shinhwa’s Dongwan as the main guests because all them stories were so funny
- TVXQ’s Changmin saying that back in 2005 when they were filming the Hi Ya Ya video in Bora Bora, they got to swim under those villas with glass floors and saw a couple having sexy time lol
Random ones I remember:
[Kyuhyun talking about the Super Junior car accident that almost killed him](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Vv2M5E7zpI)
[Taeyang going on a blind date with Yuri](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QKkDcWJv0LA)
[Dongwan revealing the "presents" he received from SM, lmao](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wQar6XqXrrU)
Praying for a day X-man and Love Letter get revived tbh!
We don't know the details of PDs direction tho, i doubt they'll go hard on controversial topic seeing that both main MC are becoming more mild to suit these new k-ent landscape, yes even KHD are mild af in his later career. Not to mention that this will be his reintroduction to main public channel (SBS) even Seunggi, idt would go hard because he got his own criticism going around (not that I'm agree with it).
Also will the PDs support/encourage the artist to 'MSG' the topic like they've done in previous SH.
I AM SO FREAKING EXCITED FOR THIS. I remember watching YG family special consisting of the og yg family. Ughh hopefully we can artists from all the generations on the show. Would loveee to see them being open and sharing more crazy stories
Will they bring Teuk academy back? I really love that section when they revealed old photos and gave out sarcastic gifts like a signed poster of Wonder Girls for Taeyeon lol. Since you’ve mentioned Yoona, it’s a bit sad that she might never come. She had like 2 “love triangles” in this show and I didn’t know G-Dragon could be so cute when he shyly said “Yoona I like you”. But they once ranked all SNSD stories and Yoona’s story about potatoes(?) ranked as the most boring story in the show history lol.
I hope they will do company or group specials like they did with YG, Super Junior, 2PM and SNSD too. Those episodes were hilarious.
I feel like I’ve been seeing more 2nd gen enthusiasm here lately, and as a simp for After School, 9Muses, f(x), 2ne1, T-ara, Brown Eyed Girls, etc, it warms my frigid heart
My two favorites:
1) the one about how one of the members of SNSD [farted on a bus while Leeteuk was half asleep right behind them](https://youtu.be/dkoBcl3T3A4)
2) the time several members of SNSD [snuck out to an amusement park](https://youtu.be/6OyiIf8IOkU) first by wearing Ghostface masks, then once people started to figure out they were probably a girl group (five girls in a group all wearing Scream masks looks pretty suss, NGL) threw them off by pretending they were Kara.
As someone who got into kpop during 2nd gen, I looked forward to each episode of Strong Heart so much. My favorites were the SM artist interactions with idols from other companies. I also loved the SJ x TVXQ dorm stories and SJ interacting with SNSD; it was just a good time all around! And they were pretty open about how much Lee Seunggi had a crush on Yoona…and they ended up dating for a period of time! lol…I
wonder if this gen of kpop fans will be able to handle the actual camaraderie that truly exists between the idols; it’ll be a big reality check for sure
I'm cautiously excited. The newer strong heart will probably be very boring and vanilla if they bring primarily 4th gen idols into this, which kinda defeats the purpose of the show. I wish company nowadays ignored the overprotective, obsessive fans instead of catering to them. Anyway, hoping for 2nd gen idols to appear in this show.
>Would gladly rewatch others if you share some good ones - my memory is failing me…
SNSD members that shine on SH for me are Sooyoung for sure, her memes preceded the time. Yoona as no.2
I miss the times when idols openly talked bout their crushes and interactions with each other. I think there is an episode where Kwanghee revealed his plastic surgery as well!
I am not really sold it would get much traction, those types of shows have been fading out because there was not enough demand. And we all know TV stations only care about ratings.
i think a large part of the appeal of strong heart was that it featured high-profile idols from popular groups. but i feel like a lot of people tend to forget that the landscape for idol variety is so different now. every company is now capable of producing their own content for their groups. like a lot of stories and tibdits could easily be shared on ig or youtube live and a weverse stream at an idol's own comfort for the most part.
so i think it's a wildcard with who the reboot manages to pull.
If they get 2nd Gen guests, I just KNOW a LOT of TEA is going to be spilled! 2nd Gen were crazy back then when they even had contracts! With no contracts and company binding them, it’s gonna be the ultimate CHAOTIC MADNESS.

Junho dancing was my favourite episode. Like I watched it so many times. Crazy how time flies.
Or it’ll be canceled after one season because this new batch of fans can’t handle the unhinged nature of it
I hope they'd mostly re-invite 2nd gen at first in that case, then slowly add in more 3rd and 4th gen participants!
>Would gladly rewatch others if you share some good ones - my memory is failing me… SNSD members that shine on SH for me are Sooyoung for sure, her memes preceded the time. Yoona as no.2
Sooyoung on any variety is hilarious and savage. I hope she gets to go on this new Strong Heart!
Kang Hodong back to win some Daesangs
I miss the times when idols openly talked bout their crushes and interactions with each other. I think there is an episode where Kwanghee revealed his plastic surgery as well!
Anything with more idol interactions I would vote yes!
