Lee Jae Wook recently shared his plans for military enlistment.
During the August 30th episode of KBS 2TV’s ‘The Seasons - Zico’s The Artist,’ Lee Jae Wook appeared as a guest.
Introducing him, Zico said, "I fell for him at first sight and personally invited him." Lee Jae Wook admitted, "I’m really nervous. Even now, I’m very anxious. I should be enjoying the music backstage, but I ended up reflecting on myself."
Zico added, "I met Jae Wook in private, and he was so tall and handsome. He was humming, and he sang well too. I cast him on the spot." Lee Jae Wook explained, "I still remember it. He ran up to me and asked if I could appear on ‘The Seasons.’ When I said I had nothing to promote, he just told me to trust him and come on."
Zico appreciated his quick decision, saying, "Usually, when someone hears that, they say, 'I’ll think about it,' but he immediately said, 'Yes, I’ll do it.' I was really happy."
Oh My Girl’s Arin, who also appeared on the show, had starred with Lee Jae Wook in the drama 'Alchemy of Souls.'
Lee Jae Wook mentioned, "I greeted Arin in the waiting room, but I couldn’t recognize her. She looked really tall. I felt like I should call her 'senior.'"
Zico then brought up, "I heard you were in a hip-hop club in high school." Lee Jae Wook laughed and responded, "Back then, 'Show Me the Money' was huge. Just listening to the music brought out the groove in me, and it made me mad, you know? I rapped about haters, even though I was a high school student and didn’t really know about anti-fans.
Our club was called MIC. Back then, I thought it was so cool, but now, talking about it is a bit embarrassing." He also shared that he had a draft song called 'Gang,' adding, "High school songs weren’t about love. It was all about gangs and hip-hop."
Finally, Lee Jae Wook revealed, "Actually, I don’t have much time left before I enlist. I’m planning to enlist next year, so I’m trying to stay as active as possible before I go."
