2PM‘s Taecyeon recently revealed the story behind his first love.

On May 15, the 2PM members were guests on “Radio Star” where they talked about the song they would want their first loves to hear.

Taecyeon chose Kim Dong Ryul‘s “Finally Now” and said, “The song is about a man who realizes that he could have treated his lover better in the past and is wondering why he is regretting it now. The lyrics came to me.

He continued, “My first love was a girl who is the same age as me from the US. We went to the same school from the sixth grade to high school,” and “Each quarter of the school year, the school would have concerts where boys wear suits and girls wear dresses. It was at that time when we got attracted to each other.

The MCs then asked, “If she was your first love, why did you choose to break up and debut as a singer?” Taecyeon answered, “I had to come to Korea for JYP‘s rookie discovery program. I thought, if I didn’t try going on this path now, I would regret it later. So in the end, we broke up.

Taecyeon revealed that he still keeps in touch with his first love through social media. He added, “It’s not like we broke up while crying over each other. We both let each other go with a smile.

[News] 2PM’s Junho Broke Taecyeon’s Arm while Arm Wrestling


With a running joke that he has a bad temper and personality, 2PM’s Junho revealed that he accidentally broke Taecyeon’s arm during arm wrestling.

On May 15, 2PM appeared on MBC’s Radio Star, where the members talked about its comeback as well as issues surrounding the group.

The MCs mentioned the rumor that Junho broke Taecyeon’s arm because he has a terrible personality. When the MCs tried to confirm, the 2PM members denied it and explained what actually happened.

Taecyeon explained that he was arm wrestling with a member. “We counted 1-2-3 and I flexed my arm when all of the sudden, I heard something like a baseball bat cracking.

As Taecyeon didn’t mention who broke his arm, the MCs began to speculate, pinpointing Junho without hesitation.

Junho sheepishly admitted it was him. He added that since then, he hasn’t been able to arm wrestle due to trauma.

All the 2PM members agreed and said they will never arm wrestle with each other again.

It turned out that when Taecyeon tightened his muscles, the sudden strength in his arm was too much for the bone to handle and it broke.
