Taeyong said he used to love painting as a child and used to receive private art tutoring after school. Ten said he used to receive private tutoring on as many as six subjects, as he couldn’t concentrate well at school. Taeyong then brought up a childhood photo of Ten he had seen, which had showed Ten posing with a tiger.

“Ten is seen in multiple photos posing with various animals and I envy him for that,” Taeyong said. Ten responded, “Well that tiger was not mine. But I actually had a pet monkey at home.” He added that he and his father love animals and kept a lot of pets in their family home in Thailand.

Ten also revealed another childhood passion: Pokemon. He said he once went shopping with his grandmother and bought some 350 Pokemon dolls at once. People at the radio studio expressed surprise at Ten’s jaw-dropping childhood anecdotes.
