OG 'Kyuline' Members Take Photo With Maknae NCT Doyoung

On August 30, NCT Kyuhyun took to his Instagram to share a photo of one of the most popular K-pop idol cliques, "Kyuline."

In the photo, they were seen sitting beside each other: NCT Doyoung, Super Junior Kyuhyun, SHINee Minho and TVXQ Changmin, wherein the three latter are the original members of the turning 11-year group of close friends.

It was assumed that the four SM Entertainment artists met up together for an after-party of "SMTOWN Live 2022: SMCU Express@Tokyo," held in Japan's Tokyo Dome from August 27 to 29.

As soon as the post circulated in the online community, the male idols gained attention, particularly Doyoung, who is an added member of the "Kyuline."

Although he's already been a member of the clique since last year, it was the first time that a photo was shared publicly with the four of them.

As he was finally introduced as the maknae of the group, people left comments such as:

  • "Seems like they have a good relationship."
  • "Finally a photo with Doyoung. Kyuhyun has been talking about him often since last year."
  • "We need to see a collaboration of them just like 'Something.'"

Fans Wonder Why EXO Suho Is Not Included in 'Kyuline' Photo

While some were delighted by the photo with NCT Doyoung, some wondered why EXO leader Suho was not with them.

  • "Where is Suho?"
  • "Suho is missing."
  • "I miss Suho with 'Kyuline.'"

In particular, aside from the OG trio, there are other members of "Kyuline" before, such as Super Junior Ryeowook and CNBLUE Jonghyun, who already "left" the group.

EXO Suho especially became known as a member of the line after their legendary cover of Girl's Day's "Something," and showed more of their relationship through "Exciting India," which aired in 2015.

However in 2020 during tvN's "Amazing Saturday," Kyuhyun and Suho confirmed that the latter "left" "Kyuline" to form his own line.

As of present, it's mostly comprised of his non-celebrity close friends from university and actors.

Despite this, EXO Suho attested that he's still close with the current "Kyuline" members.

What is 'Kyuline'?

For those who are not familiar with "Kyuline," it's a famous clique comprised of K-pop idols who share the same interests as Kyuhyun, such as games and wine (drinking).

It was originally formed in 2011, and the name was derived from Kyuhyun's name. However, TVXQChangmin is the actual leader of the line.

Most of the time, "Kyuline" members meet up to celebrate birthdays or just casually have a drinking party. Most of them have a high tolerance level for alcohol, and occasionally, they also perform onstage together, especially in SMTOWN concerts.
