While filming for MBC's 'Real Men,' the two foreigners Sam Hammington and Super Junior-M's Henry discussed where they learned the Korean phrases that they often used. People speculated that Sam, who speaks in a manly and rough way, clearly learned the language from other men, but Henry was the opposite and learned from women.
Henry confirmed this, saying, "That's correct. I learned from women." When asked about specific women, he named actress Go Ara. He said, "The first woman I saw when I came to Korea was Go Ara. She was so pretty that I wanted to speak to her somehow no matter what, so I greeted her with 'Hello' as I didn't know Korean."

After falling for Go Ara, he started to learn Korean, learning from women and getting used to words that were commonly used by women. Sam responded, "What's wrong with the way I speak!" seemingly dissatisfied with how his Korean was being viewed on the show and making everybody laugh.
You can hear Henry talk about SM label mate Go Ara when the show airs on May 25!
