2PM Nichkhun Shares Story Behind His Casting Decision "CJ or JYP"

2PM's Nichkhun reveals his decision between CJ and JYP.

On the July 11 broadcast of MBC's "Radio Star," 2PM's Nichkhun, f(x)'s Victoria, and actor Robert Holley were featured in a special episode on foreign stars in Korea.

Nichkhun began sharing about his big move during high school, as he went from the US to Korea in 2007. He said, "I was a really average student and I was actually really bad at singing and dancing. That's why initially I rejected the offer, but, I eventually went in for audition because they kept calling to persuade me to join."

It was soon revealed that JYP was not the only company interested in recruiting Nichkhun. When the MCs kept asking, Nichkhun hesitated but finally replied, "The other was CJ." In the midst of the two companies' interests, Nichkhun chose to work with JYP, which led to his debut with 2PM.
