Just at the end of last month, 2PM decided to renew his contract with JYP Entertainment except for the soldier Yuzawa Yan, and was also appointed as a director of the company. This good news that moves fans and surprises the outside world has a warmer story behind it!
Lee Joon-ho, a member who recently completed a solo concert and a trip to the TV series "Just a Relationship of Love", finally made time for a media interview. He first revealed the background of the contract renewal: "We always say that no matter who leaves the company, we must continue to be 2PM together."
"Staying in the company or not is not the point, we are together." Joon-ho said: "At that time, the company was also very supportive of us, always saying ' whether you want to renew your contract or not, I hope you can continue to be together as 2PM'.
In the past, 2PM was the first group of idols to renew their contracts in JYP Entertainment, and this time they made the rare choice of "renewing": "So we have been in the company for more than ten years, and now that we have feelings, we will really feel like we love the company." 」 Joon-ho revealed, "As a result, we have received the title of Director of External Cooperation, which also has the meaning of setting an example for other artists. This is the first time that JYP has had an artist become a director."
"I think the company also respects us and thinks about us." Joon-ho said: "I think it's really good that the company has a system that can communicate with artists freely, and I think that in the future, 2PM will be able to work harder in both individual and group activities!"
On a second renewal with JYP Entertainment, 2PM said: "Our consensus is that we hope that 2PM can be together forever. After Ze Yan took the lead in enlisting in the army last year, the members were about to become soldiers one after another; everyone agreed to finish their military service and reunite to continue their activities in a complete posture!" Although it may take several years to wait, I believe that the moment of welcoming 2PM all staff will be even more moving!
