Tony An to join variety show "Hot Brothers"

Former H.O.T. member Tony An was officially confirmed as the 8th member for a variety show titled Hot Brothers. Tony An has been appearing as a guest in a slew of variety shows lately including SBS Running Man and Oh! My School after his military discharge. It seems all of that was just a warm up for the star as he joins the variety show. A Hot Brothers affiliated staff member stated, "Tony An has officially joined the team of Hot Brothers. Starting from the 7th Tony will appear in the show." Hot Brothers originally started with 8 members but because Noh Yoo Min suddenly quit the show, only 7 members were left to continue the show namely Tak Jae Hoon, Park Myung Soo, Kim Goo Ra, Han Sang Jin, Park Hwi Soon, Simon D and Lee Ki Kwang. However, because Tony will now join the cast the crew will be able to once again continue the show with 8 members. Tony An will appear as a guest initially following the next show's concept of "Meeting the Old and the New Idol" special. He will then transition from guest and become an official Hot Brother in the following episodes.
