Every Shawol would know that the five boys of SHINee transformed into fathers in "Hello Baby" Season 2. At the time, little Jung Yoo Geun was just a little tyke. Now, Yoo Geun is all grown up and following his fathers' footsteps to stardom.

SHINe's "Hello Baby" Season 2 premiered in Jan. 2010. The show introduced then 4-year-old toddler Yoo Geun. Following the format of the reality show Taemin, Jonghyun, Minho, Key and Onew were tasked to take care of the child-a whole-day responsibility that included feeding him, playing with him and teaching him stuff.

Seven years later, Yoo Geun is now 11 years old and making a name for himself. According to Koreaboo, the child wonder is now a CF star just like his fathers and has also starred in several drama series. Considering that Yoo Geun already has experience in the industry, fans are hoping that SM Entertainment would recruit him and train him to be an idol like SHINee.

He appeared in "Secret" and "Iron Man." More recently, he appeared on the currently airing drama series "The Legend of the Blue Seas" with Lee Min Ho and Jun Ji Hyun.

Yoo Geun still looks as cute as he did back then, with the same big deer eyes SHINee's Minho has. Interestingly, Yoo Geun was very fond of Minho during the entirety of "Hello Baby." This often led to a lot of playful jealous on the part of Jonghyun and would trigger his competitiveness.

It's uncertain whether SHINee still keeps in touch with Yoo Geun, but the members left him a time capsule in the final episode of "Hello Baby" Season 2. Yoo Geun would open this time capsule when he turns 21.

Meanwhile, SHINee had its most recent comeback in November with the 90s-inspired track "Tell Me What To Do." Billboard reports that the song is part of the group's "1 of 1" album that came out in October.
