2PM's Nichkhun survives on just 3 eggs after being told he gained weight

In the episode of SBS 'Uh, But Like, Seriously!' to be broadcast on the 6th, the full 2PM group appears to share various stories ranging from their prime time to military service and individual activities.

On this day, the members continued a series of revelations regarding Ok Taec Yeon's intense stage performances in the past, summoning his nickname 'Jjit-Taecyeon' (Tear-Taecyeon). When a joke was made that broadcasting censorship standards might have been created because of Taecyeon, who repeatedly performed by tearing his clothes regardless of the stage intent, the scene turned into a sea of laughter. Taecyeon also confessed that he felt pressured during drama filming when sudden shirtless scenes were added due to his image.

In particular, Nichkhun drew attention with his honest confession regarding his appearance and weight management. He surprised everyone by revealing, "I was so shocked after hearing that I gained weight that I managed it by eating only 3 boiled eggs throughout my entire Japan concert period." He directly mentioned an experience where managing his image as an idol led to an extreme diet.

In response, the members and cast shared their own self-management experiences, exchanging empathy and jokes, and the atmosphere naturally transitioned into an 'Idol Survival Story.' In particular, as the realistic hardships of 2PM, who have maintained long-term activities, were revealed, it added a sense of bitterness alongside the laughter.

Additionally, episodes from their military service days were revealed during this broadcast. Jun.K recalled the time he visited Taecyeon during his time as a private first class, saying, "I appeared wearing a squad leader mark, to the point where I was mistaken for an officer," while Taecyeon explained, "It was because there was no time," making the scene burst into laughter once again.

Finally, during a conversation related to marriage, Taecyeon exploded the atmosphere by making a joking remark, "I don't think anyone will be able to get married." While the characteristic, close-knit 'tiki-taka' of 2PM, who have been together for a long time, remained the same, it also contained the realistic concerns and the passage of time of 18-year veteran idols.
