Holding two arena tours, releasing their album and the announcement of their “first” show at Tokyo Dome for 2DAYS! 2PM, who reached the top rank in reality and by name in only less than two years since their Japan debut.
Q: Your new album “LEGEND OF 2PM” reached No.1 on Oricon Daily Chart. What did you think when the album was completed?
Taecyeon: I think it has improved more than the first album “REPUBLIC OF 2PM” 2PM’s view of the world is expressed, and I hope we were able to show you our vigor and tenderness at the same time.
JUN. K: The inclusion of all the member’s solo songs is also good. We really worked hard in making them, the feelings “We really did our best!” will be certainly conveyed to everyone.
Nichkhun: I’m so glad to be able to make that satisfactory album!
Junho: Personally speaking, I’m happy to be able to record self-composed songs too.
Chansung: I like the uptempo song “This is Love” Junho made!
Junho: (shyly) Thank you so much. I actually try listening to how it sounds from an earphone, a speaker and a stereo in the car, which are three ways of listening to music people often do, and adjust the spread of the sound and the balance after making songs. “This is Love” especially turned out really well for listening to it in the car. Let’s listen to it while driving, everyone! (laughs)
Taecyeon: I like “I’ll Be OK” the most from these wonderful songs. Since I like ballad songs.
Wooyoung: Me too! It’s full of hope and it’s touching, although the lines of lyrics are sorrowful seeing as he is sending off a girlfriend who follows her dream.
Q: Actually, are you able to send off your girlfriend like that?
Wooyoung: Eh….Um…. It’s hard to do it….
Taecyeon: I can’t say even “Don’t go!”
Wooyoung: (laughs) I’ll try to send off her while cheering for her!
Q: You’re in the middle of your second arena tour, which is praised as “The best (show) ever” now, aren’t you? The time of your first Tokyo Dome show for 2DAYS is coming on April 20th and 21st.
Wooyoung: I still can’t believe that even now. I may not be able to feel the reality of that until I’ll finish the stages without any troubles. (laughs)
Nichkhun: We are really honored to able to stand on the stage where many great artists performed, right?
JUN. K: We’re grateful to fans who have supported us and also our staffs for our present success.
Chansung: Everyone always gives us strength. Some events everyone prepares for the concert touches us so deeply every time.
Taecyeon: They change the color of the lightstick and sometimes it’s filled with my imaged-color green through the hall as a surprise event. I guess preparing for that is kind of hard. My heart gets really warm by seeing everyone who is trying to support us very hard!!
Chansung: Tokyo Dome is really big. We’re having a discussion about how we should enjoy it together or something.
Junho: I still feel strange since the stage has been my dream. At any rate, I feel like standing on the stage of Tokyo Dome right now! Please look forward to it, everyone.

Name: Wooyoung
Birthdate: 30 April 1989
Blood Type: B.
Height: 178cm
With <Sexy Lady> (included in <Legend of 2PM> Limited Edition B’s CD), he debuted as a solo artist. It seems like he has started writing and composing songs. (Wooyoung said) Composing a song is very difficult when you try it and it causes me to lose my confidence. However, with perseverance there will be results and sense of satisfaction as there is improvement(able to move forward).
Q: Why is that you are always able maintain your uniqueness?
WY: I still think it is because I have the passion to perform a good stage, the desire and not wanting to lose to my own heart. Instead of saying that I want a different kind of lifestyle, I will say I prefer not to live that easily. I want to work harder and try to reach the highest that I can.
Q: How about taking care of children?
WY: I am good at it. I have a number of cousins who are younger than me. During every year and festival times, it is me who will take care of them.
Q: What is Tokyo to Wooyoung?
WY: Nice food shops and fun places of interests etc. There are a lot of places where I am familiar with and it is a place whereby I can relax like in Korea.
Q: Please tell us your goal.
WY: I want to relate my own story through music using my own words.
