2PM OTP(!!!) Hanako Interview
2012-02-19 02:22 pm



JUNHO X JUNSU
As artists, Junsu and Junho respect each other. We started this interview with serious talk about music, but the atmosphere turned out to be cheerful in process.
--- Which part of Junsu’s or Junho’s personality has changed the most since your debut?
JS: Junho is originally an emotional person who tries his best in what he must do. By the way, he became very sophisticated these days. He makes the best facial expressions during the photo shoot. See? He looks so cool now.
JH: Hahaha. In my opinion, Junsu became very dependable since debut; he shares his thoughts as a big brother and he warms people’s heart. We share our passion for music together, share the ideas for composition and stimulate each other well. Every time I complete a song,I give Junsu a first listen. He always gives me shrewd feedbacks.
JS: Yes, I often give specific pieces of advice. Before that weused to work on our own pieces separately. However, as we stay at a hotel room together, we can work on our composition together.
--- Then, are you going to make a piece together one day?
JH: Of course!
JS: Please look forward to it.
--- That’s great to know. What about you as vocalists?
JS: Although Junho was good at both singing and dancing, he was slightly better at dancing. But he is now doing great in both.
JH: Junsu’svocals is the best in 2PM!
JS: And that’s because we are Jun- Brothers!
JH: We started calling ourselves that, right?LOL
--- Do you find any similarities in your personalities?
JH: Basically, our hobbies and interests are completely different. I like scary things, but Junsu doesn’t.
JS: Eh? I like scary things.
JH: Ah, you like horror movies. I like thrilling roller coaster and horror house, but not horror movies!
--- Then, where would you like to go together?
JH; Hmmm~ Maybe racing, such as car race or mini-bike race. I’ve loved fast things since I was little.
JS: Fast things! Scary things! You like everything~. I want Junho to try out drifting together with me. It would be fun.
--- Junsu, how do you see Junho as your younger brother?
JS: Junho is kind of a cute person, but he’s so cool when he bluntly says his opinion at the right time.
JH: That’s good~ LOL I should learn from Junsu how to make others feel relaxed. Panda aura!
JS: That’s a good point.
--- Which animal do you think Junho resembles the most?
JS: Hmm~ let me think.
JH:*Roaring*
JS: …?
JH: It’s cheetah!
JS: Eeh? Do you want to be a cheetah? Okay okay, you are right, you are flexible, strong and homely enough to protect your family...
JH: Ah that’s great. You really are a “healing panda”
JS: You know? Panda can also be dreadful sometimes. *roaring*
JH: Kkkk You should work out more and be a momjjang-panda. (E/N: mom-jjang = great body)
--- Are there any enviable body parts of Junho/ Junsu?
JS: Hips! That’s what girls envy. I like his well-balanced body.
JH: You have loooong legs. No matter how low you pull the pants down, they are never long enough. LOL
JS: AHAHAHA
--- Lastly, what do you think will become of you in 10 years’ time?
JS: I think Junho will be an authentic entertainer, and also have a car-related shop.
JH: Hmmm
JS: Oh, he doesn’t like the future image.
JH: Don’t worry, he’s just making things up. LOL I think Junsu will become a successful musician. And will go shopping with his daughter and son who would be just like him.
JS: Ahaha I will try. LOL


CHANSUNG X TAECYEON
Taecyeon and Chansung became icons of “Beastly Idols” with their beauty and perfect sculpturesque bodies. What is hidden behind their cool looks…?
--- We have this image that Taecyeon is a big brother, and Chansung is the youngest one. What is it like in real life?
CS: Taecyeon always has his strong will and leads the team at the right time….
TY: …What a cool guy.
CS: I was about to say that! LOL He also has a good sense of humor.
TY: Although Chansung is the youngest in 2PM, he is more like a friend who is reliable and gives me convincing pieces of advice. However, at the same time he has a cute side of his. He often bites people.
CS: Yes, frequently. LOL I feel like biting people when I am in a good mood.
--- Chansung, I heard that once you had 49 bananas in a day. Are there any more “legendary” stories of you two?
CS: One day when we were still trainees, a staff-member took us to a kimbab restaurant.
TY: We were always hungry back then, right?
CS: So the sad story was that... The three of us ordered 12 portions of kimbab. The staff-member had one and Taecyeon and I ate the rest.
--- Which part of Taecyeon’s or Chansung’s personality has changed the most since your debut?
CS: Taecyeon never fails to put 2PM first. That part of him hasn’t changed.
TY: The thing about Chansung that hasn’t changed is the fact that he has always been working very hard, so I think he made the biggest improvement among the members.
--- In your opinion, what kind of lady would match Taecyeon/Chansung?
CS: I think someone who has a kind heart and could accept Taecyeon as he is would match him.
TY: Right now, even if Chansung had a girlfriend, he might prioritize 2PM over her. She has to be broad-minded and understand his position.
--- If a lady just like what you’ve said appeared and you both fell in love with her…
CS: Ah, I would surrender.
TY: Oh okay, then I’d go out with her. LOL No, the most important thing is the lady’s opinion, so I’ll leave up to her to decide. So anyway, why would you give up so easily?
CS: I don’t want to have any trouble with Taecyeon, because we will be working together in the future...
TY: See? This is the reason why Chansung’s woman has to be someone very understanding.
CS: I see. I wonder if I can find such a person though… LOL
--- Lastly, what do you think will become of you in 10 years’ time?
CS: I think Taecyeon will be a model for a European top class brand. I think he’ll become a grown-up, who suits that sort of fashion.
TY: Thank you. LOL I think Chansung will be a singer who specializes in ballroom dancing.
CS: Hahahaha.What is that!?
TY: You’ll be a first person to do singing and ballroom dancing at the same time. LOL But I am sure we will continue being 2PM. I think each of us will be doing our own things, and get together as fellow members and good friends in 10 years of time.


WOOYOUNG × NICHKHUN
Nichkhun and Wooyoung think deeply and listen well to each other in an amiable atmosphere…
--- To your mind, which part of Nichkhun’s or Wooyoung’s personality have changed the most since your debut?
NK: Wooyoung has become very mature. Originally, he was such a constrained man. He used to relay his ideas and opinions to me in secret, but now he can share his ideas with everyone else. He gave up a lot of things because of the fear and anxiety he had, but he can now overcome those feelings since he had a lot of practice, I think.
WY: Exactly! I am now trying to get rid of my fears, and also trying to have various kinds of talks with the other members. You really are watching over me, Nichkhun.
NK: Yes, I think that’s because I am a bit older than you. LOL
WY: Nichkhun has always been my role model as a big brother. His warm heart and kindness never changes.
--- When did you feel Nichkhun’s kindness the most?
WY: There’ve been a lot of moments…
NK: Hahaha.
WY: Ah! This was when we were having dinner with the other members right after the first concert. As always I was anxious thinking how I am lacking in many ways in comparison to other members, because I had only 3~4 months of training before debut. So, I told them I was sorry for the lack of me abilities. Nichkhun embraced me tight and said “What are you talking about? No one thinks like that.”
NK: I can’t remember though? LOL
WY: Yeah, I was so touched I cried that day.
---Nichkhun, in what way do you find Wooyoung cute?
NK: Wooyoung is always cute. LOL He makes the members smile and relax, when they are feeling blue or irritated. Wooyoung is just too cute.
WY: Do I really do that? LOL
NK: Yeah, always~.
--- In your opinion, what kind of lady would match Nichkhun/ Wooyoung?
WY: First of all, she has to have a good character. She has to be honest, kind and understanding of Nichkhun’s job and dream.
NK: Thank you! For Wooyoung, I think someone who can amuse him would be good because he makes others laugh all the time. A girl who is honest, has her own opinion, and can carry out many kinds of conversations with him, just like a friend.
WY: *claps*
--- Lastly, if you were to give a present for Nichkhun/ Wooyoung, what would you get for him?
WY: What should I get?
NK: Hmm…I think the thing I would like to give Wooyoung is time. It would be nice if he could use the time to reflect upon himself or let his body rest for a while.
WY: I want to give Nichkhun the world’s best piano.
NK: That’s very expensive~. I should’ve worked harder on my piano lessons when I was little.
WY: But if you had worked very hard and became a pianist, you wouldn’t have become a member of 2PM. So that’s good you didn’t work hard on it!
NK: *claps*
WY: That’s the fate!

Date: 2012-02-19 11:41 am (UTC)oh yeah, if anyone is wondering, i'm talking about these tweets supposedly aimed at block b:
Nichkhun: Those, who speak about things related to flooding in Thailand without having given it a decent thought, make Thai people feel bad. And instead of coming to Thailand and acting as you please, show some courtesy to this country and please display a proper attitude.
Junho: I’m not going to disclose the names, but as a fellow Korean I am embarrassed beyond control. I would be great if a person could behave properly knowing that in one single moment one single action can disgrace not only him, but also the people around him. I’m saying this as a human being, and as a senior.
(retweeted by taec)
Chansung: Sometimes according to a situation even if you try to avoid careless actions, things might get out of hands, but when you’re thoughtless enough to disregard and hurt others, acting as if you’re the best out there, after such mistake you will be regarded as a thoughtless person… one should have a bit of shame…

Date: 2012-02-19 12:51 pm (UTC)it seems like block b fans are spamming 2pm member's twitter now...not my precious 2PM oppars ;_; khun is so gentle, as displayed in this interview. (great post op! lol)
i wasn't even going to be mad, because i still remember the slightly insensitive comment khun made about the japan tsunami...but he didn't show his ass like block b just did. it's two different situations imo.
no subject
Date: 2012-02-19 01:00 pm (UTC)i understand why khun voiced his opinion, even if he made an insensitive comment himself. it was a joke abt an issue in thailand made towards thai people in their own country. i am filipino and yet it struck a chord in me because i experienced flooding which took hundreds of lives. i am very disappointed in zico and kyung.

Date: 2012-02-19 12:24 pm (UTC)These are my translations. I am not Korean, and these can be incomplete. But for the most part this is what happened.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ODYiHXn5bS4&feature=youtu.be
They were asked if they’ve heard about the flood in Thailand. They went, “Eiii, yes yes of course we know that.” Then Jiho said that there “must have been lots of damage, to the families.” And that he “hopes donations (he actually used the words ‘monetary compensation’ but that may be an honest linguistic mistake... bec idt this situation calls for ‘compensation’?) can help them (literally 'heal their hearts'); as they (Block B) have nothing but money.”
Then Kyung interrupted him and asked him “How much do you have?”
To which he said, “7,000... won... thereabouts.” (less than US$7)
Kyung looked at the translator as if saying ~okay that’s the punchline~ puts out his hand, nods, and says, “About 7,000.”
And you can hear Kwon laugh and repeat, “About 7,000 /won/”
And you can see Taeil smiling in anticipation as to how the translator would react.
And you’ll see Kyung laughing at 13:02... idk if he’s laughing at their own joke or if he was laughing at the translator’s reaction but I was so shocked. Like seriously, how could you joke about the help efforts towards a tragedy which killed lots of people? It was mind-boggling.
EDIT: I took out my rather lengthy-comment, gonna save that for the real post. 8| Sorry.

no subject
Date: 2012-02-19 11:03 pm (UTC)And if so, what did he do?
I know Kyung made some misogynistic statements in his rapp.
