Junho
is releasing his mini album “FEEL” after about a year. This album, which he
produced on his own, is said to be a piece of work that contains a meaning of
current “Life-sized Me”
“Although my 1st Mini Album “Kimi No Koe”, released last year, was a refreshing album with refresing atmosphere, this album became one where I dance unknowingly to myself because of the brightness and dynamism it has. I hope everyone who will listen to this album, which I enjoyed producing all the tracks with the composer hyungs, will feel the current “Junho”, a different one from the last year’s.”

Let’s ask him what his reason is in choosing “FEEL” as a title track for the album that contains various genred songs in it.
“Because it was the first song that came into mind? (Laughs)” he answered that with humour.
“This is my personal thought but there are many of recently popular song which are provocative and they give great impacts, right. But I think that the melodies that stay in one’s heart through his nostalgic feeling towards an old song, are cool. Although it’s monotonous, I thought that it would be good if there were such song that can remind one of past times suddenly. That’s why during the production of “FEEL” I thought I want to mix that both sides. A melody that contains the current popular beat and that nostalgic feeling. It would be nice if these two elements could be enjoyed at the same time.”
Is there a song that you’d like to recommend for “anan” female readers who are working?
“It should be “Always (Zutto)” This song sings about one’s crush developping in him who meets a certain someone and thinks about that someone all the times eventhough they’re not lovers yet. How that someone always appears when he’s at home, when he closes his eyes, even in his dream... The song fully contains that kind of exciting feelings. Because, I think it’s important for such an exciting moment during one’s ordinary life to exist. So I hope you’ll listen to the song on your way from work~!”
Junho who is usually doing a group activity in 2PM. We’re also curious about the other members’ response, about this album.
“I recently gave Minjun hyung and Chansung a listen.
Both of them praised me by saying “It’s good.” I also gave Wooyoung a listen
but he said “I don’t know if I only listen to it only once.” (Laughs) Referring
to my solo activities, the members really don’t say anything. Because I also
did last year, it just feels like “You’ll do well again for this time also”
from them. But they usually come to see my concert or text me with “Have
strength!” They show it more in actions rather than words. That gives me
strength. I’m thankful for it.”
