The legendary first-generation idol group H.O.T. (Moon Hee-joon, Kangta, Tony An, Jang Woo-hyuk, and Lee Jae-won) reunited as a complete group for the first time in 27 years.

In a video titled "I Only Love You H.O.T. Complete Group_ Rare Footage Unleashed" on the YouTube channel 〈짠한형 신동엽〉, all five members of H.O.T. appeared together, sharing a special time filled with memories, laughter, and tears.

"My Heart Was Fluttering" – Shin Dong-yeop Also Moved by the Complete Reunion

MC Shin Dong-yeop expressed his excitement, saying, "It's been a really long time since all five of you have been in one place like this. My heart is pounding."

The members also looked at each other with excitement, saying, "It's the first time the five of us have ever had drinks together on a show."

Moon Hee-joon confessed, "Our team was like glass beads. We were so careful with each other that we couldn't easily bump into each other." Shin Dong-yeop responded warmly, "That's what made you bulletproof. That's why you've been able to stay together until now."

Tony An Confesses His True Feelings: "My Role Was Ambiguous"

Tony An spoke honestly about his role in the team in the past, saying, "Leader Hee-joon, lead vocalist Kangta, and main dancer Woo-hyuk were the center of the stories. I felt that my position in the team was a bit ambiguous."

Moon Hee-joon expressed his apologies, saying, "Tony must have had a hard time inside." Shin Dong-yeop lightened the mood by playfully asking, "Is that why your girlfriends comforted you?"

Tony An laughed and said, "That's a clean summary. I received a lot of comfort."

"Without H.O.T., There Would Be No SM" – Surprise Call with Lee Soo-man

During the video, Shin Dong-yeop said, "Lee Soo-man still talks about H.O.T. often. He said, 'Without H.O.T., there would be no SM,'" and immediately called Lee Soo-man.

Lee Soo-man, who answered the phone, said warmly, "I'm so glad to hear that you're all together. Let's definitely meet next time. I love H.O.T." The members responded with "We love you!", completing a short but touching moment.

Kangta Gets Emotional at Lee Soo-man's Voice: "That Tension from Back Then Is Still There"

When Lee Soo-man asked, "Are you still practicing singing these days?", Kangta replied briefly, "Yes," and his eyes welled up with tears.

After ending the call, he revealed, "It's been 10 years since I talked to him. I felt the tension from my trainee days again."

"A Fan Who Sneaked into the Dorm Gave Me Soap" – Stories from Their Heyday Revealed

Moon Hee-joon surprised everyone by revealing, "I was showering in the dorm and said I didn't have any soap, and suddenly someone handed me soap. It turned out that a fan was hiding in the dorm."

Tony An also shared a funny yet sad memory, saying, "I was only wearing underwear, and I felt like someone was watching me. A fan had actually snuck into the house."

"Happy to Be Together Again" – 6 Years Since Their Last Stage

H.O.T. will reunite with their fans for the first time in 6 years at the 'HANTEO MUSIC FESTIVAL in Korea' held at the Incheon Inspire Arena on November 22-23, 2025.

Moon Hee-joon said, "Even as time passes, H.O.T. is still in my heart. I'm really happy to be able to come together again."
