[News] 'The Woman Writes The Lyrics' 2PM Junho "Nervous" appearing with Actress Kim So Eun
The 2nd male cast for the MBC Music's entertainment reality program 'Music & Lyrics' – 2PM Member Junho, stated that "I'm nervous working with an actress"
Through an interview related to this program that was held in the afternoon of 16th March at a cafe in Yeoeuido, Junho said, "Other than 2PM members, it is hard to adapt and get along with other people. Without the members, it is also awkward."
About doing a solo activity later compared to Taecyeon, Junsu, Nickhun and other members, Junho said "Because hidden card comes out later", while also stated "Actually, I am not confident. But I will show and give out my best and naturally".
This program is a type of reality program which the male composer and woman lyricist met and collaborate on songs together. The first broadcast has met Yoon Gun and Park Shin Hye to compose a romantic love song. The next appearance is Junho. And for the partner, talent Kim So Eun was selected.
About being part of this program as a composer, Junho explained, "Collaborations are usually done between singers, but I think working with an actress can show new colors", and "In composing, all 2PM members are greedy. Although our producer Park Jin-Yeong has produces well for us, but we still think that we need our own colors and everyone is learning little by little."
About the earlier cast Yoon Gun, "Mr. Yoon Gun has done really well, so it's a burden", and "Mr. Yoon Gun even plays piano on the spot, but I can't do that", and "I'm not even working as a composer, because I need to think even on stage, so I will need a lot of time for composing", Jundo said while laughing.
He again said, "I was told Mr. Yoon Gun and Park Shin-Hye even drink rice wine together", and "The event that I wanted to do has came out earlier already. Although I still don't know what kind of event should I do with Kim So Eun, but as it fits my age, I will show/do it, even if it is as lame and lacking.
About the song that they will write together, "I gave a lot of thought about the same sweet song like 'Way Back into Love" from the movie 'Music & Lyrics'. But I will rather try to think of it in an entirely different direction" and, "I will try giving attempts on dance or several other type of song."
Junho's skill as a composer has already been recognized. His composition 'Move On' has topped at No. 1 spot on the Japanese digital music site Recochoku. 'Move On', a duet song with the group member Wooyoung, has gained hot responses when performed during the 'Hands Up Asia Tour' stages.
"I composed the song 'Move On' for the concert's special stage but the response are good, so I am really thankful", Junho said happily as a composer.
Junho and Kim So Eun duets episodes is scheduled to begin as soon as Yoon Gun – Park Shin-Hye's episodes end. Although this program was originally created for MBC Music channel, but because it has received popular responses, the program will be aired on MBC channel starting from 18th (March). (The show) has recorded 5% of viewership on 11PM slot and spreaded a hype. As it was first broadcasted on cable channel and later received good responses, so the program is exceptionally transmitted to air on the MBC main channel.

I went back after recently came for the TVC filming. This is so short period. I feel good and warm.
-How's the feeling after you've been choosing as a presenter?
I'm so glad and proud this is my frist time being a car presenter. The ECO are is easy to drive, comfortable and save energy. Help the global warming as well. I feel like I used this car can also help the global warming as well. I think it good for teenager who concern more. Not choosing the high price car but this is the good car have plenty space. The most important thing is help our environment.

Almost (laugh)
-How was the TVC filming atmosphere from the last 2 weeks?
If you see the TVC will have beach scene, playing basketball with my friends scene and went shopping. All the scenes are CGs. Since I have limited time only 1 day. Then we go to all those location and have CGs on them. It was bad that I didn't go to the real beach. This is the new experience that I never had before. The director technique is different from I used to work with. Once I saw the TVC I'm so impress that how good it be. I'm so excited.
-What is your dream car?
I have to see from the gas point. How many kilometers/liter that the car could do. When I was young the gas price only 20 baht+ per liter but now it was expensive. So I focus from this point first. I like the car that can drive more comparing via kilometers per liter. Now we have global warming crisis. I saw many news about this issue. It was sad. This car can drive 22 kilometers/liter. Now normal car can only drive 10+ kilometers/liter. So this car suite my ideal type the most. Inside the car also have all entertainment gears. It's look small but the trunk is quite big has a lot of space. At first I though I can't fit in the car but after I sit in, it was so comfortable.

Everyone has their nickname. My is Gran Pa because I'm not that strick but I like to tell them to go to bed early and wake them up. I like to go to bed early. So they said I like an old guy go to bed early and wake up early. Just like Grand Pa. I'm Haraboji (laugh) I always think like my dad. I'm kind of old fashioned guy. I always think about nutrition for the food. I don't like loud noise. When they were loud in the dorm I will tell them to lower their noise since it will bother the neighbor downstair. Things like these.
-You work so hard for Movies , presenters. How did you release your stress?
I have some rest by listening to music and watch movie. Thai fans send me Thai movie DVDs I will load them to my tablet for watching. The latest one is Diew 9(the stand up comedy) I'm not sure to practice my Thai from P Note Udom but it was really fun (laugh)
