[TRANS] 110411 U-Kiss @ KoreanPOP Magazine Vol. 11 (Indonesian Magazine) - Interview

After holding a succesful Mini Concert in Medan-Brastagi, Indonesia last March 5th, KoreanPOP got an opportunity to interview the group, U-Kiss. After waiting under a cold weather for about 15 minutes, finally we were able to meet the 6 boys which welcomed us with a friendly atmosphere. Although they've done so many activities during that day, there was no sign of tiredness in their faces. They threw jokes at each other making the awkward atmosphere into a friendlier one making the 10mins interview feel like just 3mins. All the questions & answers were in English, thanks to Eli and Alexander (translator note: I think they forget to put Kevin's name here) for being the translators between KoreanPOP and Soohyun, Kiseop & Dongho.
