In a special episode of KBS 2TV's Shin Sang-chul's Pyeon Restaurant, airing on the 18th, Kim Jaejoong and Kim Junsu reflect on their past as members of the iconic group TVXQ. This marks their first joint appearance on terrestrial TV in 15 years, where they share heartfelt moments and stories from their long-lasting friendship.
In a pre-recorded segment, Kim Jaejoong welcomed Kim Junsu to his family home, where his parents were excited to see him. They spent quality time together, and Jaejoong even cooked dishes he knew his brother would love. Kim Junsu was so amazed by the food that he exclaimed, "I can't believe it!"
As they enjoyed the meal, Jaejoong shared a nostalgic memory, saying, "When we were kids, we ate like it was a battle." He added, "During our trainee days at 16, I cooked a lot because I was the only one who knew how to cook. I felt so proud when Junsu enjoyed my meals and showed up with a puffy face the next day."
The conversation naturally shifted to their debut and the heights of their group activities. Both Jaejoong and Junsu reminisced about their incredible success in South Korea and Japan, sharing funny stories about their hectic schedules. They recalled traveling back and forth between Korea and Japan in just half a day and even renting a private jet for a recording. Jaejoong expressed, "I don't want to hide my past. While there are bad memories, there are also many good and truly beautiful ones."
Having met as teenagers with the same dreams, Kim Jaejoong and Kim Junsu have shared both bright moments and tough times together. They promised to share more heartfelt stories and focus on their bond, vowing to "only be happy."
Fans are excited to see this long-awaited reunion on Pyeon Restaurant, which will air after the 4th playoff game of the 2024 KBO League postseason. If the game is rained out, the episode will still air at 8:30 PM as planned.
