~Donghae~SJ

Name: Lee Dong Hae
D.O.B: 15.10.1986
Hometown: Mokpo
Family: Dad(passed away on 8.8.07) , Mum, Elder Brother.
Musical Instrument: Guitar, Piano.

Facts:

Joined SM Entertainment soon after he won first place on the 3rd SM Youth Best Selection Best Outward Appearance in 2001, where he was was trained in areas of singing, acting, and dancing.
After four years of training, SM Entertainment officially announced Lee Dong-hae as a member of the all-boy group Super Junior, which was to debut in November 2005. Several days before his official debut he made a brief appearance on November 2005 at SBS’s “Shin DongYeop’s There Is There Isn’t” panel.
He appeared in Boa’s Key Of Heart MV & Girls’ Generation-Kissing U.
Currently studying in MyongJi University. (Same as YunHo & Xiah from TVXQ)
He loves children and puppies & hope to be a father as soon as possible.
He had a dog named “Bada” as in “sea”.
He is cute when you see his silly side.
He loves every member of Super Junior and takes good care of them. When his hyung (older brother/male) is in an upset mood, he will cook noodles for them.
He will always remember his hyung’s birthdays. He doesn’t manage a Cyworld often, but when it’s a friend’s birthday, he would post pictures and a message on his Cyworld.
He often wears a hat or a beanie.
When he was still in the group O-Kay, EunHyuk and Junsu jokingly told him that he is officially a celebrity and his life/himself will change. Once he heard of that, he walked away quietly. They found him in the toilet crying and slamming the wall “I WILL NOT CHANGE!”
He often cried when he was on the phone with his parents. He is now trying hard to hold back his tears.
When he received his first place award for the first time, he said, “Father, I hope you’re healthy.”
Although he once said he doesn’t like to be too close (as in body contact) with someone, we can obviously see that he loves hugging.
When he is with EunHyuk, he is very playful like a puppy. They are the best of friends.
He likes it when others call him a prince.
Eunhyuk & Donghae = Eunhae. But because he is afraid that Siwon will be mad, he created Eunshihae.

He saves his money in drinking cans.
He loves to reply fan’s messages.
He hates pink because SungMin’s cupboard is just opposite his bed & full of PINKY stuff. (SungMin loves pink)
He said that he hates celebrating his birthday. Because last year, Super Junior went somewhere to perform. He was looking forward to 12 o’clock to come when all his members would give him presents but they all were busy doing their own things, making him so sad, so every time they talk about birthdays on air he would always complain.
Donghae used to reside on the 4th story of a small apartment. Everyday after school, he would press the bell of his neighbor’s house (1st story) and run away, until he got caught once.
He often forgets his hat, cell phone or similar items. He would look high and low for his hat, when he already wore it. Once he was chatting with another member on the phone and said: “I forgotten my phone, I’m going to go up and take it.”
He’s a crybaby, soft-hearted and thinks a lot
The best place he likes to keep his savings in, is the water dispenser bottle
If someone tells him he’s short, he’ll definitely go online and search for ways to grow taller and drinks only milk and soy milk.
He’ll turn into a beast if he’s on stage performing U. when he had eyes contact with the members, they’ll think that his stares is so not human.
Donghae always wears a silver bracelet on his wrist, it was given to him by his mother so he never takes it off.
Donghae used to play at the public bath house with his friends, using the bathhouse like a swimming pool, thus making all the ahjusshis there angry.
Donghae, who is quite weak in health, often loses sleep at night. Sungmin who lives with him would fall asleep easily at the count of three, leaving Donghae to roll and flip around in bed trying to fall asleep.
During the 3rd year in elementary school, the teacher wrongly accused Donghae of taking away the attendance book & punished him in the teacher’s office.
If he has a girlfriend, he’ll like to give her a tour around his hometown, Mokpo, and let her know the place he grew up in.
He loves the name Bada, he named his dog Bada and said that once he has a kid he will name his child Bada too.
Before he debuted, he was afraid of taking the airplane, so he never went to any of the 3 school trip to Jeju Island during high school.
Donghae, who is sensitive to his surroundings, will not be able to fall asleep for the whole night if he is sleeping elsewhere other than home. It’s because he felt insecure when he does not see anything familiar to him in the surrounding.
Donghae left a message titled “ELF I LOVE YOU” in the fan cafe and sungmin called him and told him he got the title wrong. he typed LOVE as LVOE and he was so embarrassed.
When Kibum first came to Korea, Donghae’s the 1st person to hug him and welcome him.
When he was small, he played games with his friend that needed them to be divided in groups. Whichever group that he is in, will always lose in the game.
He once promised his father that under any circumstances, he will not drink alcohol.
No matter how much he eats, he will not gain fat. Whenever he feels like he had gain a bit of weight, he’ll exercise. And the first place to slim down is his face.
Donghae is really afraid of Shindong’s snoring, and his loud breathing while sleeping scares him too. It’s almost impossible to sleep at night, for him.
He likes the feeling of being protected, being cared for. & because he’ll feel lonely easily, he never eats alone. He needs to have someone to eat with him.
Since he hates to eat alone, Donghae often sits in other members’ to wait for them to be done working so he can go eat with them.
Donghae dislikes pink a lot.. because opposite his bed is Sungmin’s wardrobe and it’s full of pinkish stuffs, clothes, dolls, pillow, bags and shoes are all pink.

(note: he not longer rooms with Sungmin)

He’s not really good at searching things online. He doesn’t really even know how to use ‘Naver’ to search. Thus he doesn’t like going online, not to mention shopping online too.

Donghae really admires those taxi drivers and public transport drivers. Not only because his father used to be a taxi driver, but also because he himself will feel tired and aches all over after driving for half an hour and thus find those people impressive as they can drive all day long.

Donghae is very affectionate so his methods of waking up the other members are to either pad their butts or go hug them out of bed.

He is afraid of ghosts so he sleeps with a nightlight.

Donghae had didn’t have any friends in SM for one year because he was very introverted at the time and he didn’t know anyone from Mokpo.

He later meets DBSK member Uknow Yuhno who became instantly close with because they are both from Mokpo.

Donghae wanted to become a singer because he saw Boa Kwon. who is the same age. performed on stage and thought she was inspirational. A few years later he and Boa stared in a music video together.

Donghae is very sensitive and therefore cries very easily. Once, before debut, fellow group member Eunhyuk and DBSK member Xiah Junsu sarcastically teased him about becoming an arrogant star once he debuted. Donghae became so scared/upset that he went to the bathroom and punched the wall while crying.

Donghae cares for his Donsaengs very much, when KyuHyun was in the hospital, Donghae was the one that visisted him the most.

@JuJu
You are very welcome ^^ I do not know if Donghae has a girlfriend right now or not, probably no, since he’s very busy being an idol, and ELFs would realize if Donghae actually has a girlfriend XD

i think donghae is a very adorable person. he’s so sweet. not to mention he’s 22 going on 23.. but he’s such a kiddy (in a good way). and indeed a CUTE-DORK i ever known too. he loves to drink milk, alcohol is a no-no, he’s sensitive, he always hold to friendship and such.. Donghae and i have so much in common. hm, no wonder i love him. ^.^

It’s amazed me how an idol keep his manner in a good way..that’s why i Love You..I’m inspired by you..You’re really a Husband Material..in 2009 Come To Play the member’s also stated that Donghae is the type that never watch an Adult Movie.. In 2010 Youngstreet Heechul said that Donghae also doesn’t like to play online game..and he is popular among Girls Idol too..well i think we all admitted that his personality is truly awesome..he is the member who get along with others well..even temperred Heechul said that he is the one that can control him, and he will definetely listen to Donghae, and Also donghae the one in SJ member who permitted to use Informal Words/Banmal to Heenim(since he is a Hyung). Leeteuk is also close with him ever since pre trainee (since he in junior high), and shared room with him.

When i read this trivia i laugh at this one.. “Donghae used to reside on the 4th story of a small apartment. Everyday after school, he would press the bell of his neighbor’s house (1st story) and run away, until he got caught once.”

..Because when i was a kid,i also do the same thing..Pressing the neighbor’s doorbell.. haha . LOL 😀
