On the December 19 airing of SBS's 'Cultwo Show,' Thunder appeared and was asked by a listener whether his sister, Dara, was doing well.

He replied, "She's doing really well. She has a lot of promotions overseas." He also talked about releasing his first solo album: "I can't say there was nothing awkward [about promoting alone for the first time]. Although I debuted seven years ago and promoted in MBLAQ, there were many awkward aspects about doing it alone. It was comfortable promoting with multiple members, but I was nervous standing on stage alone. It's nice I have more parts because it's my solo song, but I do feel like I don't have the stamina for it."

i know many ppl keep saying why do they keep asking about dara, but in reality, dara used to get asked many questions about thunder as well especially after he left mblaq. this is something common with celeb-siblings in the same business. The call just wanted to know how she was doing which is pretty selfish to ask since its thunders time to shine, but even as a curious bj, im glad he updated us and shes keeping busy. PLUS he did talk about solo vs group promo-style. hes not really a variety king yet but he is v funny and witty :) thunder hwaiting~~

thats because i cant help it when i see v one-sided crazy ass haters/trollers go on a rampage when akp writes questionable (incorrect info/incorrect translated) articles giving them the opportunity to be dumbasses and go on a field day. Gotta have some sane ppl around right LOL and also im a multistanner ;)

To be honest, I don't recall a time when Dara was ever asked about Thunder after leaving MBLAQ. I don't even remember a time when Dara was asked about Thunder specifically. Unfortunately, it's always the other way around.

I may be a blackjack but why does every article about Thunder has to be related to Dara? Why doesnt the interviewer ask more question about Thunder? Its getting kinda of annoying

what is he only popular because of Dara?

kpoplolita S1C4L1CK4 • Monday, December 19, 2016

they both are but since it wa sa random call, he had to answer otherwise it would be rude. PPl cant help link both, actually many times dara was asked about thunder when she would appear on shows too. it happens with all celebsiblings

Aww I'm sure he must've felt lonely some times, but I hope he can continue to grow =]and i hope reporters and interviewers can stop asking him about his sister. I love Dara and it was okay at first for him to get some more popularity, but now it's becoming sad for him that they see him as her brother and not on his own
