Mighty Mouth participated in an awesome pictorial with 'bnt International'!

A group that is approaching their 10th year since debut, Mighty Mouth showed surprising sides in these photos, very different from their usual upbeat, goofy image.

During an interview that took place after the photo shoot, Sangchu and Shorry J shared their thoughts on various issues and topics. Regarding Sangchu's long break after the military scandal, the rapper stated, "After that happened, I thought that my life was over. I even thought about doing something harmful to myself; it was hard."

But things have gotten better, Sangchu explained. And one person who has helped him, besides his fellow member, Shorry J, was Kim Jong Kook. While talking about Kim Jong Kook, they shared a funny story from their travel to the United States.

Sangchu shared, "We arrived at an airport in the U.S., and because the lines were so long, the airport staff started to divide the people into which airline they flew in with. He called, 'Korean Air' for everyone except for Shorry J; the staff said with full conviction, 'Air Mexico' as he pointed to Shorry."

Shorry J added, "I was just prepared to say, yes, but then he called me Mexican, so I was so confused. That never happened to me before."

Wow, the airport staff assuming he was Mexican and telling him to get in the wrong line was extremely rude.

He wasn't rude. Shorry J looks like Mexican. If u see Mexicans people, some of them looks like Asian too.... So yeah, it was just a small mistake. If you are not native from where ur from, people will assume u are from this and that place! Especially when u are at the airport,,,, There are a lot of people from around the world,,,,

Exactly - there are a lot of people from around the world so one should not presume to know where someone is from based on how the look.

How?? He doesn't even look Mexican xD

Have you ever seen Mexicans in person? They look so different from region to region, and some really do look quite Asian/have "Asian features." Still, that doesn't excuse what the airport staff said to him. It's just ignorant.

There are a lot of Hispanics who have Asian features. I have a Salvadorean friend who gets mistaken for being Korean every time she eats at a Korean restaurant.

Yes, I've been around Mexicans.. but I guess it wasn't something I paid much attention to before. I don't think I've ever mistaken an Asian for being Hispanic, but thanks for clearing that up guys. Now that I think about it my brother's wife does have more "Asian features" and she's also happens to be Salvadoran.
