Niel wrapped up with a comment on Shinhwa's Andy, who helped Teen Top debut. "Andy hyung is really like a big brother, not a boss," he said. "He's a senior with more experience, but he tries to act comfortably around us and gives us a lot of advice. We look up to him and we're very thankful, so we don't want to escape the name of 'Andy's idol.'"

MBC lifted its ban on appearances by Shinhwa's Andy on its shows.

A source from MBC told OBS's 'Unique Entertainment News' on the afternoon of the 17th that "Andy's ban was lifted on the 19th last month. He can now appear on all MBC shows."

The source added, "The channel reconsiders its ban if the one in question asks for a reconsideration."

Andy had been summarily indicted in November 2013 for getting involved in illegal sports gambling, and paid a 5 million won fine. The ban on his appearances had been implemented since January 2014.

Andy is next set to appear on MBC's 'Section TV Entertainment Relay' on the 22nd to introduce the music video shoot for Shinhwa's 12th album title song 'Sniper'.

Shinhwa will be returning with title song 'Sniper' from its 12th studio album 'We' on the 26th. The group will hold its 17th anniversary concert at the Olympic Park Gymnastics Stadium on March 21st and 22nd.

"I went to my first reservist training last year, and I met a lot of showbiz seniors. I was surprised to meet senior singers like Park Hyoshin, Andy, Wheesung, and more. We went out to throw grenades when the assistant called us by team, and trained hard. Park Hyoshin sunbae was especially popular among the other reservists. It was a cool experience."

The Cultwo Show DJs asked AOA which boy group they liked the most when they were in school. AOA's Choa answered shyly, "I liked Click-B. I liked every member, but I liked the keyboardist Kim Taehyung sunbaenim the most."

Hyejeong said her favorite was god's Kim Taewoo, Seulhyun picked Yoon Kyesang, Yuna picked Shinhwa's Andy, and Jimin picked H.O.T's Jang Woohyuk. Lastly, the youngest member Chanmi answered cutely that she liked TVXQ's Max Changmin.

Teen Top's Niel drew attention by talking about Shinhwa Andy's producing style.

Teen Top attended the press event for the Mnet black drama <Entertain Us> held at the CJ E&M Center in Seoul Mapo-gu Sangam-dong on the morning of the 29th.

When asked to compare Andy and Yoon Jongshin's producing styles at the press event, Teen Top couldn't seem to bring themselves to answer the question at first. Yoon Jongshin joked, "We'll use our right to remain silent here on the topic of Andy."

Niel said in a serious tone, "Andy's strict when he produces, but he gives us a lot of advice and talks to us a lot. Yoon Jongshin in this drama, however, cares mostly for his own interests."

'Entertain Us' is a black drama that combines reality with drama. It is about how Yoon Jongshin, who dreams of becoming the biggest producer in K-Pop, starts to produce the popular idol Teen Top. It will air its first episode at 12 AM on the 31st.

Netizens commented, "That's a weird drama," "I'm looking forward to their acting," "I like Teen Top," "It was a difficult question but they gave a logical answer," "I'm going to be tuning in," and more.

It has been revealed that Shinhwa's Andy was not restricted from appearing in KBS.

A source from KBS said, "Unlike Tony An and Tak Jaehoon, Andy hasn't received any bans. Of course, that means Shinhwa's songs are also not banned."

Reports had stated that Andy had been banned from the channel with Tony An and Tak Jaehoon for getting involved in illegal gambling. Bans from the channel not only mean that the stars can't appear in its shows, but also that any songs which contain their voices can't be played.

It was soon revealed, however, that Andy hadn't received any such ban. Music by H.O.T and Country Kko Kko was banned for as long as Tony An and Tak Jaehoon's ban lasts, but as Andy doesn't fall under this category, Shinhwa's songs can still be played on KBS.

Andy was able to avoid the ban as his punishment was considerably lighter compared to Tony An and Tak Jaehoon's.

The KBS source said, "Bans usually come in place when a celebrity receives a sentence higher than probation. As Andy was only asked to pay a fine, he was able to avoid the ban set on Tony An and Tak Jaehoon."
