2AM’s Jo Kwon has shared about his adolescence during his training at JYP.

In the episode of KBS 2’s Do Dream which aired on March 24, Jo was asked, “How did you spend your adolescence?” He answered, “I went through everything at the agency.”

He continued, “So there were ten genius boys selected including me, but nobody cared for me. I felt quite sorry for myself. I felt like an invisible person, didn’t know what I was doing and why I was there, but I stood still.”

When the emcee Song Seung Hwan stated in awe, “Park Jin Young must be a man of something too because he has kept Jo Kwon for eight years without any promise in near future,” Jo replied, “Actually, I was in an ambiguous position. I believe it was hard for Park too because it would’ve been a loss if he let me go, but at the same time, he didn’t know what to do with me.” When the star spoke about his past experience, he seemed very calm.

The episode gathered much attention as Chang Min, Jin Woon, Seul Ong, and Jo Kwon genuinely shared their personal stories as mentors of the day.
