something for the kpop history books

so after jonghyun posted comparisons of him and listerine

and some very witty shawol made a fake listerine ad ft. jonghyun

listerine’s marketing department sent jonghyun enough listerine to last his life

did I mention that they also sent him a cake

and that, is how you do business
