Fluttering India "두근두근 인도" series finishes with sweet memories

KBS2 channel has recently wrapped up the final episode of Fluttering India "두근두근 인도" which featured some K-pop idols such as Super Junior's Kyuhun, C.N Blue Jong Hyun, SHINee's Min Ho, INFINITE's Seung Gyu and EXO's Suho. Originally TVXQ's Chang Min was scheduled to join them but he was caught up with other activities so he couldn't participate in it. Eventually on end of Episode 2 Seung Gyu flew in from Seoul to India. All arrived in Mumbai- the main capital of India. The country is hot and humid. The boys were all given a mission- they are working as correspondents and to report back to the HQ on how to promote and spread the K-pop culture in India. However they were all horrified to know that the locals know very little on Korea. They were greeted with veteran reporter Kim Gil Heung who is their Cap and will be assisting them to make the reports.

The first stop was The Gateway of India- the main huge monument in Mumbai. Seunggyu also discovered what it the real meaning of Bollywood- originally Mumbai's name is Bombay. So Bo+ llywood (from Hollywood) is where the Indian movies start from. The idols were quite surprised that nobody knew them on the main streets. Even though they were asked to take photos with the locals but they were not their fans. Locals thought they were foreign celebs and it'd be a good idea to snap the pics first. Kyuhun and Jonghyun headed to Starbucks Coffee which only opened 2 years ago. They were relaxing and having a cuppa when an Indian girl fan approached Kyuhun asking if he's from SuJu. At last! They were recognized by an Indian fan who knows K-pop! The 2 were directed to Rythmn House - the largest CD store in Mumbai to find if there are any K-pop records. To their surprise there was nothing! LOL! Their music industry is different compared to Korea. 

The boys were getting desperate as they couldn't have any report to send back to Seoul. Reporter Kim informs them if their news are worth it, it could appear in the daily 9pm new slot which everyone is eager to see it. Quickly they headed to the biggest Indian film company Yash Raj Films to meet a movie PD. He is happy to see them and knew K-pop is rather huge in Asia. He pointed out he'd personally picked TVXQ's Changmin as the most potential even though he wasn't there. Ha ha! Seunggyu managed to secure his business card if they ever want to make it big in India. They were informed there is a Korean stunt coordinator, Oh Seh Young who is currently working in Mumbai at the Film City. Kyuhun immediately informed Reporter Kim that they are heading to Film City. At first they couldn't get into the set because Oh is rehearsing another scene. So the boys headed to the mall to get some Indian clothes to wear. Then they finally met Oh who immediately recognized Kyuhun as his crew directed the movie Attack of the Pin Up boys movie which some of SuJu members starred in it. Kyuhun was so embarassed with that film and asked not to be mentioned again. Oh is famous for his stunts works in big films such as King the Clown, War of Arrows and recently The Suspect starring Gong Yoo. He tells them the culture in India is rather different than in Korea. He finds the country to be colorful and people are friendly too. Their meeting was abrupted with the announcement of a Secretary of Ministry of Culture arriving at Film City. She wanted to meet the K-pop idols. Quickly the boys rushed to meet the woman in charge and she only knows PSY for his noted Gangnam Style MV. After taking photo with her, they rushed back to continue their interview with Oh and his crew. Kyuhun noted that Oh looks like Kim Jeongnam from Turbo and his other crewman looks like Kim Jongkook means they can form Turbo group! Hahaha!

The group even celebrated Kyuhun's birthday in India with a simple party but he wasn't surprised as he could see the boys were blowing balloons in the other room for him. Only Reporter Kim was caught in the act. 

It was a long day and the boys were hoping to send the news back to Seoul with the help of Reporter Kim. However their reports were not so important to feature on 9-News slot so theirs will be slotted on the 8AM news slot the next morning. Eventually Minho and Kyuhun's reports were selected as part of 4 minutes news. For 4 days filming, it was only screened 4 minutes. How devastating! Suho thinks it's all beginners' luck and it was good enough they get to see so much things in 4 days. Jonghyun wonders if he should dye his hair black again to make it big in India. Seunggyu pointed probably he doesn't have any fans because of his single eye lid. The guys knew for one thing that actor Shah Rukh Khan is the biggest celeb in India. Everyone knows and admires him. In fact they were shown home made videos of Indian K-pop fans who loved them so much. They even received fan mails from Indian fans. :) 

On a random voting of photos- Suho ranked no.#1 in apperance and he was beaming happily. Kyuhun and Jonghyun managed to secure a few votes but Minho and Seunggyu had zero votes because of some strange photos they posted. Best bit the boys even came up in promptu of random songs singing about India in their dorms. Jonghyun's inspiration of music prompted Kyuhun to sing as if he was in some musical and Suho's song ended up like a kiddie song! Funny...bet the boys enjoyed themselves while promoting Korea in India. 
For one thing the guys were at their most relaxed comfy manner without being too akward as they were mostly same age friends in the entertainment industry. The youngest in age literally would be Minho but Suho was considered the youngest since EXO debuted later than the rest.
