Recently, EVAN (formerly Heeseung) released a behind-the-scenes video for his dance challenges for “Ride or Die” on YouTube.
In particular, while filming a dance challenge with RIIZE’s Eunseok, they revealed that they were actually classmates in high school.
CRAZY THAT LEE HEESEUNG AND EUNSEOK WERE ALSO IN THE SAME CLASS AT GWANGNAM HIGH SCHOOL

Eunseok: Hi, we went to the same school.
Evan: That’s right. Gwangnam High School. We were in the same class, too.
Eunseok: We never really ran into each other.
Evan: I heard a lot about him, though. We got close after we debuted.
Eunseok: That’s right. Evan, hwaiting!
Evan: Hwaiting!
A few years ago, a fan asked Evan whether they knew each other.

친구가 궁금해해서 물어봤었는데..
라이즈 은석님이랑 희승이랑 동창인거 아냐고 했더니 그냥 건너건너 아는 사이인게 인기가요 피디님이 광남고래요 ㅋㅋㅋ 피디님이 알려주셔가지고 알았고 친해질 수도 있을것같다고 .. 광남고 친구중에서도 아는사람있고 그래서 엄청 신기했다고함!

My friend was curious, so I asked Heeseung if he knew that he went to the same school as Eunseok. He said he heard from people because the Inkigayo PD was also from the same school. He found out because of the PD who said we could probably become friends. He found it interesting that they knew the same people out of his friends from school.
It looks like they’ve gotten much closer over the years!
