His contract expired on March 4th, and the packing of his bags carry two
meanings. First, he has to go back to the States on the 6th because his
Visa
is going to expire, and if Tony An is going to come back, he needs
to empty
the house that he is living in right now. The present manager
of the Seoul
Chung Dam Dong home has said that he cannot approve of a contract
renewal
(for the home) because of the flooding fans that disturb the neighborhood
peace. There has been a lot of stories having to do with H.O.T's homes as
there has been about their rising popularity. Around the time of their debut,
the sales of a small convenience store in the near vicinity of their first
home in BanPo zoomed due to the tremendous amount of fans that found H.O.T's
home. And while in HeukSukDong, they even held a birthday party in the middle
of the night with fans from a nearby middle school. The home in ChungDamDong
has been being used since 1999, but because of the expiration of their
contract, Tony An and his house-mate Jang Woo Hyuk are planning on moving
their stuff for a little while. Tony An will be leaving to the States on
the
6th, but will be returning back to Korea after his 10-day resting period.
