JYP Entertainment’s ‘FAN’s Day 2012′ event ends in great success

JYP Entertainment has successfully concluded their first annual ‘FAN’s Day 2012‘ event.

Launching for the first time this year, the event began on August 3rd and ran through the 5th at the Platoon Kunsthalle located in Seoul, drawing in 4,000 fans.

The event included various events, such as exhibitions on the artists’ outfits, albums, pictures, MVs, MV making films, free caricatures and hennas, patbingsu (shaved ice dessert) time, experience wearing artists’ outfits, and various other activities that fans were able to personally partake in themselves.

JYPE artists were also able to interact with fans throughout the event.

Yenny, Lim, Suzy, Fei, and Chansung personally made and handed out coffees and snacks, Wooyoung and Junsu transformed into DJs at a booth and played fans-requested music, and Taecyeon, Yubin, Fei, Suzy, and Junho drew caricatures and hennas for fans on their arms and faces.

Sohee, JOO, JB, and Jr. greeted fans with bracelets, and Sun and San E took to the stage and put up various performances for the fans.

JYP Entertainment expressed, “Through this event, the artists were very happy to be able to spend time with fans rather than a regular stage performance or fan meetings. We would like to continue to interact with fans who have loved JYP Entertainment and we will work harder to become closer [with fans].”

Meanwhile, JYP Nation wrapped up a successful concert at the Olympic Park Gymnastics Stadium back on August 4th with 10,000 fans in attendance. The ‘JYP Nation’ tour will be moving onto Japan this coming 18th and 19th.

2PM’s Wooyoung discusses who has the best body in 2PM

Hard work doesn’t lie! 2PM may have always held title of the idol group with the best bodies, but this is because 2PM members work hard and compete against themselves to maintain their bodies.

In Korea, the best indicator of the hottest male entertainers is the cover of Men’s Health magazine: 2PM members Wooyoung, Nichkhun, Chansung, and Taecyeon have all been featured as cover models in the past. This year, Wooyoung beat out other stars like Lee Joon, Dongjun, baseball players Choo Shin Soo and Lee Seung Yeob, Taecyeon, comedian Yoon Hyung Bin, and even actor Cha Seung Won, in the 7th Men’s Health Cool Guy competition, and was featured in the July edition of the magazine.

Even with his new title, Wooyoung selected Nichkhun as the member with the best body in 2PM, as he said, “Nichkhun has experience with Muay Thai (a Thai combat sport). He has muscles that you can’t make from just working out. Chansung works the hardest for his body. Among 2PM members, Chansung exercises the most.” He also said that Junsu focuses more on being well-balanced and healthy, rather than only working out.

Wooyoung continued, “Members watch their diets carefully for about 2 weeks, before a photo shoot. If we eat the way we regularly do, it breaks the balance in our bodies and makes it harder to create a nice shape. We watch our diets for 2-3 weeks when we need to.”

This month, Wooyoung has been promoting his new solo album, ‘23, Male, Single‘ with his title song, ‘Sexy Lady‘.

2PM’s Nichkhun airs his grievances to his fellow members

2PM‘s Nichkhun has recited all of his grievances to his fellow members.

On the July 14th installment of the segment ‘Guerilla Date‘ under KBS‘s ‘Entertainment Relay‘, the members were asked to share grievances they have kept inside towards their fellow members.

When it was Nichkhun’s turn to speak, everyone was surprised as he had quite a few things to say to each of the members. He began with Taecyeon exclaiming, “Organize your hair before you leave the dorm!” Taecyeon, who’s nicknamed ‘fashion terrorist’, has recently been growing out his hair, leading him to sport unique hairstyles.

Nichkhun then faced Junsu and hilariously commented, “Let’s wake up when the alarm goes off. I always had to wake you up even during our trainee days.”

To maknae Chansung, Nichkhun said, “Take care of your things.” Chansung is known for easily forgetting things as he had once left his phone behind on an airplane.

Lastly, Nichkhun turned to Junho and remarked, “Let’s not play the drums in our rooms,” causing everyone to burst into laughter.

Wooyoung was unable to participate in the recording for this episode due to his solo schedule.
