2PM's Jun. K Reveals Frustration Over Debut Song: "I Was the Main Vocalist, But Had No Solo Lines After 4 Years of Training"

2PM's Jun. K expressed his lingering disappointment with Park Jin-young.

On the episode of SBS's "Actually, But Seriously" (hereinafter "A-Geun-Jin") that aired on July 6, 2PM visited Suzy's boarding house.

During the broadcast, Jun. K drew attention by revealing that he had been unhappy with how parts were distributed in the past. He surprised everyone by saying, "I had no solo parts in our debut song, '10 Out of 10'." Despite being the group's main vocalist, he did not have a single individual line.

In response, Boom asked, "Wait, didn't you have parts like 'Yeah'?" and Jun. K was touched, saying, "You remembered that." Jun. K only did ad-libs in the debut song. Boom added, "You did your best on that. You put your heart and soul into it."

Jun. K voiced his frustration, saying, "When we performed on broadcast, there were lyric sheets. Everyone else had lyrics, but for me, it was just 'Yeah' in parentheses. I was only half-visible on screen, too."

He continued, "Actually, I almost became a member of 2AM. I was practicing for 2AM's debut song before becoming the main vocalist for 2PM. When we were recording our debut song, the way they decided on part distribution was by having us sing through it one by one. But I was the last in line. By then, it was already over." He shared how disheartened he felt at the time.

Jun. K expressed his upset feelings, saying, "Jinyoung-hyung told me to try a 'Yeah' here, so I did it with all my might, but that ad-lib was really all I got. It was absurd. I'm only saying this now. I had been a trainee for four years, and they gave me a 'Yeah'."
