Jung Kyu-min, SHINee's Minho, and EXO's Chanyeol joined JTBC's Knowing Brothers on June 27 as members of the celebrity basketball team Rising Eagles.

Jung Kyu-min lists 172 cm on his profile. His family tree tells a different story.
The 환승연애 cast member showed up on JTBC's 아는 형님 on June 27 at 9 PM with SHINee's Minho, EXO's Chanyeol, and Moon Soo-in. All four play for Rising Eagles, a celebrity basketball team run by former pro Seo Jang-hoon.
Kyu-min has spent time proving himself on court. "Because my height is small, people doubted my basketball skills a lot. The director also suspected me at first." Seo came around. "Jung Kyu-min plays basketball really well," he said on air. The real kicker: both Kyu-min's grandfather and father stand over 180 cm. (The genes just skipped a generation.)
Minho had his own gripe. He feels awkward around the team because Seo bans them from doing the traditional "fighting" cheer. Seo confirmed he's disliked the ritual since his playing days.
Chanyeol brought up a post-military bulking phase. He called it something "every male idol experiences at least once." EXO's Kai and Sehun went through the same thing after discharge. Both had to manage it themselves. Fan disapproval at the time made related materials hard to find.
Moon Soo-in revealed he earned over 40 million won in basketball tournament prize money during his university years alone. Kyu-min vouched for him: "Moon Soo-in is from Incheon, but from student days he was famous for being really good at basketball."
