[TRANS] COSMOPOLITAN - 6 Men Coming Together as a Whole Again, 2PM

6 Men Coming Together as a Whole Again, 2PM


Making a new phrase ‘Beastly Idols’ and starting the syndrome after their debut in 2008, 2PM have become matured men even more. The warm moment when the 6 men who have been bragging each of their ability through solo, acting, album producing, etc gathered as 2PM.



It’s been a long time since we met in 2009. We asked you what you think you would be doing 10 later, do you perhaps remember your answers?

Junho Didn’t we answer that we’d be in the army? Haha.

Taecyeon I can’t remember at all...

Taecyeon answered acting, singing, radio DJ, having a coffee business. Nichkhun answered being married and having a business. Jun. K answered to keep engrossed in music, and being married! Chansung answered acting and singing, Wooyoung answered to be the world’s best musician. And Junho asnwered launching clothing brand, composing songs, producing, singing and acting...

Jun. K When did you say we answered this? Euhaha.

Taecyeon Worst of all I didn't even like coffee that much so I wonder why did I say that? All of us didn't give it more thought.

Junho Wooyoung-ah, it won’t be long until you become the world’s best musician

Taecyeon Junho’s launching a clothing brand is even more shocking!

Junho Wait a moment. We are 2PM, are you sure you didn't interview 2AM instead of us?

Wooyoung Didn't we do this jokingly?

Taecyeon Jun. K No we didn't, we did it very seriously. I remembered...

That’s right. It’s still vivid in mind how all of you answered the questionnaire as if you’re answering for college entrance exam. Though it hasn’t been 10 years, 6 years have passed since then.  At that time, all of you said that 2PM’s strongest weapon was ‘performance’ so what do you think have changed now?

Chansung We did splendid things like performaces to draw attention in our debut days but I don’t think we can keep going with that only. We’ve gone through a period of change in order to find our own style since then. I would like to say that now is the time when the result of that change is becoming clear. It’s a process of change but we did everything to always show our best.

Your comeback is in June. It is said that there will be a lot of members’ composition too this time but if you are to give a hint about the new album? Only to evoke expectation.

Junho The sure thing I can say that this album was really made by us.

Taecyeon Members’ participation in this album is higher than in the others we’ve had until now. We’re showing more and more of our colors whenever we release new albums in the future. As Chansung said before, I think this album can show you the best of our current capability.



We can’t help but to ask about love to young people at the peak of youth. Honestly, we don’t have to tell that 2PM members will do well but who is the romanticist among the members?

Junho Well, won’t everyone be romanticist when in love?

Wooyoung If not, I think one can at least be romanticist to his lover even when he’s not to other women. There are many lovers who can’t date comfortable despite being in love because they go public. I think they would have the thought of wanting to try like ‘I want to date like this too’.

Chansung I just want an ordinary date of walking on the streets while holding hands.

Junho True. Something like eating spicy rice cake together at the snack stall. That’s why I want to have a lot of quality time with my wife when I get married later. It’s because I’m unlikely to get married soon. The soonest would be when I’m 35 years old? I’d be starting my life with the woman I love so I would like to try everything I couldn’t do before as much as I wish with her.



I personally think that ‘obsession propensity’ is one of the biggest traits of men so as <Cosmo Men> cover models is there something that you’re obsessed with recently? Not obsessed in a negative way but kind of something you’ve done much.

Junho I have one! I’m rasing 2 cats at home but I’m quite obsessed with the state of their feces. The kids have some diarrhea so I have to check on them and feed them medicines by myself, covering their feces right after they defecated... I’m not sure how obsessed I am to keep being alert of those moment.

Wooyoung I think I’m obsessed with studying these days. I’m getting really curious about the world lately. That’s why I read random books.  I keep on seeing things like documentary or video feeds... I recenly read a book called < Healing The Shame That Binds You> and it’s good.

Chansung I’m really interested in photography recently. It’s not talking selca, haha. The fans gave me a camera for my birthday gift so I started by wondering whether I should try taking pictures with it and it was surprisingly fun.

Nichkhun Mine is Mickey Mouse. Haha.

All Seriously, he has to go to Disneyland to see Mickey Mouse whenever we have schedule overseas. He also draws Mickey Mouse during his time off. But, he matches with Mickey Mouse well.

Jun. K I’m recently obsessed with spacing. I’m the type to not do well when my place is uncomfortable, even it’s only a little. I only sit on places to sit even at home. I’m obsessed with seeking comfort for rooms in that way.

Taecyeon I’ve fallen for spirits (alcoholic drinks) tasting. Wine, beer and recently whiskey, they have a lot of kinds and tastes. I find it fun to taste them and fine which one fits my taste. But I’m not an alcoholic. Haha.

Last question. What time is the hottest time now on 2PM’s clock?

Junho Of course it’s still 2PM. We’re always bright and energetic, very hot.

Taecyeon If so, it’s actually the hottest at 3PM. Because of the solar radiation. Haha.

Wooyoung Then the answer is 3PM.

Jun. K If 3PM is the hottest time, then we still have a long way to go. I think we’re at 2:02 PM. If we have gone through a process toward 2:01 PM until now, I think we’ll be at 2:02 PM starting from now on. We’re always progressing.

[TRANS] CanCam October Issue - 2PM



2PM WORLD TREASURE! ~LETS TRAVEL WITH 2PM!~

Half a year since their last CanCam exclusive cover! 2PM members who fly overseas for performances or promotions.
Photographing the good unchanging relationships of them, who are 6-years-debuted in Korea.


[Style Check for the 6 people leaving on 2PM’s trip!]





2PM wrapped in spring fashion trend.

Each of the 6 people’s chosen trunk, anticipation, and romance of “Traveling” are thrown in...♥



Jun. K “A beautiful colored trunk with a striped knitted wear will make an outstanding individuality ”
Junho “Denim and shirt. A space for man through the extremely simple clothing”
Wooyoung “A lettering T-shirt with black jacket for a chic man look at the airport”
Taecyeon “A fitting jacket on a built body will show a man’s color”
Nichkhun “A fitting white pants X shirt will show natural resort style”
Chansung “Print T-shirt and damage denim will add the mood to play on a trip”   


[Individual Q&A] 

[Wooyoung]



ABOUT L.A.


Q1. Your image of L.A.? 



It feels somehow peaceful? I really like L.A.! 



Q. Have you ever gone to L.A.?



I have. When Wonder Girls held US Tour, 2PM was the opening act so we went together to 9 cities. 




ABOUT LOVE



Q1. The girl I like has no interest in me at all! How will you revert your heart?


I will directly give up. (Jun. K: Although you sincerely like her?)
Though I’m not sure whether I will try once again or not if we’ve been friends since the beginning...
For example, there is a shop assistant at a convenience store who is, let’s say, my ideal type.
In that case, I won’t try to appeal her and I will just come back after buying stuffs. I’m such a slow man... (laughs) 



Q2. Your girlfriend is spotted walking hand in hand with an unknown man! What will you do?



Eum~ (He thought for a while) If I have something urgent that moment, I won’t be able to see that place and just leave! (laughs)

If I have time then, I will run to my girlfriend and ask her “What is this?”
 

Q3. Who amongst the members that is likely to be the most envious if you have a girlfriend?



I think all of them will be similar? I will certainly be as well.




[Jun. K]

ABOUT L.A.


Q1. Your image of L.A.? 



It feels clean. And free! Since there is no particular tall building in L.A., the sky is spreaded out and I feel that ‘grand’ feeling.

Relaxed! L.A has that image of a relaxing place. 



Q2. Have you ever gone to L.A.?



Of course, I have! With all of the members. (Wooyoung: I have answered that)

Then, I want to go with Wooyoung this time♪ Since we have a similar laughing point.


ABOUT LOVE



Q1. The girl I like has no interest in me at all! How will you revert your heart?



I will try to find out about her thoroughly, like her lifestyle or hobby (laughs) Anyways, I have to get her interest in me!



Q2. Your girlfriend is spotted walking hand in hand with an unknown man! What will you do?



I won’t be able to move, from the great shock I get at the spot...!!
Then in that situation, I won’t be able to form words properly to that beloved girlfriend of mine, I won’t know who is that unknown man... I can’t say anything, and then I will ask her through phone call later.



Q3. Who amongst the members that is likely to be the most envious if you have a girlfriend?




Junho! He has the image of likely to get envious. Nobody has no enviousness anyway, right?

A fanchatting to commemorate Jun. K's Korea Digital Single release was held today at 5PM KST where Jun. K chatted with 17 people of Hottest 5th at the fancafe for about 20 mins. The fanchat doc can be downloaded here (cr Me_jjang)

Below are some of the translations (not full chat) as requested by @Gladyzkhun

Minjun: Hello. This is Minjun. Nice to meet you euhahaha. I'm always touched by everyone's big love (he literally wrote big sarang, cute!) please give me big love (big sarang) ㅋㅋㅋ

A fan said she wants to see No Love Korean version performance and Minjun replied that he also wants to do it too ^^

A fan asked minjun that has he seen Taec's ex wife on Wonderful days? and he answered ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ I dont know who it is XD

Then another fan said she thought Taec's ex wife in Wonderful Days was Minjun then he answered he was suprised too XD

They then talked about the ex wife then Minjun was like 'ex wife.. ex wife right?' then said 'anyway she's pretty right? I'm gonna be pretty too'

Minjun said he finished 2PM's song titled xxxxx xxx he's working on. Also said he already made 3 songs after getting back in kr :D

Fan asked when fans can hear that xxxxx xxx song but Minjun said he doesn't know yet he just made it and added that it's a track made in 2011 but he just made it with a new arrangement a few days ago ^^

A fan asked why minjun wears long sleeves in a such hot summer but minjun replied that's he's not wearing it tho haha. He added that he is wearing a track shirt (?). He said he wears pants now cuz he wore shorts all the time lol also wear sleeveless shirt, said that it exposed his shoulder XD

Fan asked what does he think when composing a song

Minjun: first of all, when I'm making cheerful songs, it will make my mood good somehow. I think it's crazy when I look forward to it. When making sad songs, I'll think about everything and be very sad and then I'll keep on bringing those emotions and do some efforts. If I dont have all these as reasons, then I think it wont work

Fan asked will minjun sing No Love at jypn concert and is there any plan on individual activities until the moment before the cb

Minjun answered: I dont really know. if not, it's not that urgent right, cuz the concert name itself is jyp so it can center about jypn all artists' joint performance

after that another fan asked will they sing girl group's song

minjun then called out that fan's username lol and answered they wont sing... girl group songs

A fan exited the chat room when she's supposed to ask a question so minjun's like ' (username)ㅠㅠㅠ exited.. really sadㅠㅠㅠㅠ she escaped'

A fan asked: 1. you'll be holding an Asia Tour but will there be any concert in Korea? 2. And you really like panda but... what is panda to oppa?

Minjun: 1. for asia tour, maybe we'll do it after the album comes out? We're preparing for it actually 2. rather than liking it, I came to know panda after being told that it resembles me. an interesting animal. it's fierce.be careful. there's a reason that it's not in the zoo

Fan: NO LOVE necklace was out right... (it's very pretty) you're preparing another product right? (looking forward >0<) and please tell if you have something you wish from korean fans in the future or something you're curious about

Minjun: I'm preparing for another product ㅋㅋㅋ

(then the earlier fan who left came back, Minjun said '(username) hi')

Minjun: (continued about the product) what will be good ... ah (another username) escaped... what should I design with no love (a fan answered bracelet) bracelet from silver? gold? iron? should I make silver bracelet or gold bracelet. so nobody wants iron bracelet ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ (another fan said allergy, maybe to iron?) ah right allergy I have an allergy too

There's a fan who had her bday so Minjun said eumm.. happy bday.. let's say happy bday altogether whoaaaa congratulations

A fan asked what's minjun interest recently, beside music. Minjun: beside music... I'm really blank.. what is it.. I dont know what to say. For interest, to hang a blackout curtain ㅋㅋㅋ because I sleep after wearing sleeping mask everyday ㅋㅋ I'll hang a blackout curtain ㅋㅋㅋ

A fan asked can w fans expect minjun's korea solo con and is there any plan to perform a cute performance like with you in jypn concert? (she also said that seems like minjun's worn out of emotions (?) as an artist after working so hard in the first half year)

Minjun: I cant excatly say for jypn concert but there will be extremely many of special stages. please look forward to it. worn out of emotions as an artist ㅠㅠ you really know well ㅋㅋㅋ I will live up to your expectations. I'll improve more.

Minjun: To do music and to have my first solo is really meaningful in my life. And of course although I couldn't sing all the songs in Korean, I'm sincerely touched and thankful for the many staff who gave such a good opportunitu to me, to those who wait for me, and to those who loves my music. I think I'll have to work even harder.

(Fans were asking for his selca and minjun said: I'm wearing make up for schedule tho, should I upload a selca? kkk but I'm just wearing a light make up)

and although it's not a formal solo, NO LOVE Korean ver was released and I'm thankful because everyone give lots of love to it. I'm happy, my chest hursts and it's hard when I saw the comments. But I will show myself more and return everything to everyone who believe and support me. Thank you for giving a great love. I wont hurt seeing your comments ㅎㅎ I'll just work hard.

[TRANS] Jun. K Comeback Interview with Genie




Q. Please give your comeback comment to the fans who have been waiting since 2PM 3rd full-length album~


A. Genie family, hello~ I’m 2PM’s Jun. K! I was back to see everyone with through my solo album after about a year since 2PM 3rd full-length album. I prepared a lot of things to show a different thing from the one I have shown when I’m together with the members. Please give lots of love~



Q. After 3 years since starting your solo activities by the name ‘Jun. K’ in 2011, you’ve come once again with your solo album. Please introduce the title track NO LOVE!



A. Yes, NO LOVE. It’s a name of a brand I designed on my own with X as the heart, you can say it’s a track graced with that meaning. It’s a track I worked on together with Super Changddai hyung, from our composing team 143v and Kim Eunsoo. I think the charm of this song is how various situations were shown in one music. It’s about the great despair of love put in the beginning and the end of the song, it is to tell the stories about the great reason and the wound from that despair.



Q. Your Japan first solo album ‘LOVE & HATE’ occupied the first place in Oricon and Tower Records when it was released. Your comment?



A. I felt somewhat a little different from the moment I was on the first plave with as a member of 2PM. Actually I have been working hard since December last year for this solo album, fortunately a great result came out, I felt sorry and thankful for everyone who had helped. I actually cried a bit as soon as I heard the news that I was on the first place.....^^ Once again I want to thank everyone!



Q. It became a topic that 2PM members all came to your Japan solo tour which had come to an end. The secret to the heartwearming friendship of this 6th year debuted idols?



A. The members didn’t have any schedule in Japan though, I was very thankful, and happy that they even came to Japan to support me. Even Jinyoung hyung also came to see my final concert and praised me, but I thought I will have to work even harder. Eum... By reaching our 6th year, every member has really many individual schedules but we contact each other more and monitor each other’s activities while supporting that’s why we’re like real brothers now^^



Q. Please tell us your activity plan this year.



A. Alright, first of all although I’m having a break from the busy first half year, I’m planning to work hard on composing songs in order to show a cool look of mine to everyone. Also, I’m currently preparing a lot of things with the members to show our good performance as 2PM soon, please look forward to it! The weather is really hot nowadays, please always be careful~ Thank you. ^^
