Netizens who selected Kim Hyun Joong commented, “If he had the skills to make 100,000,000 Won (~$90,000 USD) by just simply working part time before he actually debuted, he will probably be able to bring in a lot of profit for his company,” and “He has strong leadership and a good sense of responsibility so he will probably be able to lead the company well.”
