이제는 연애가 자유로운 2AM이랑 한 차로 가🚘 ｜EP.34 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S3I7T4F5UHk)

On October 22, a new video featuring members of 2AM was shared on the “Vivo TV”YouTube channel.

During the livestream, Jo Kwon opened up about his earlier remarks concerning a no-dating policy that the group adhered to before their split, stating, “Even now, when dating rumors about idols emerge, that old clip comes back. Back when we debuted, I was heavily influenced by (Park) Jin Young and truly believed dating wasn’t an option due to the challenges we faced to launch our careers.” In response to Lim Seulong’s question, “Did you not date at all during that time?” , Jo Kwon responded, “Actually, during that period, I went through experiences of both love and heartbreak.”

Jo Kwon continued, “As I matured and Sunye got married, it wasn’t until I turned 27 that I went on my first date, which felt really late.”

When the comedian Song Eun Yi inquired, “Did the group share their relationship experiences with one another?” , Jo Kwon playfully suggested, “I suspect Jeong Jinwoon was the most discreet. He likely dated quietly.” Jeong Jinwoon, feeling misrepresented, replied, “That’s not true! My relationships were quite public. Any exposure was coincidental, but I certainly didn’t aim to hide them.” Jeong Jinwoon has been known to have public romances with Yeeun from Wonder Girls and Kyungri from Nine Muses.
