TWICE’s Jeongyeon Addresses Life After Hiatus

On July 20 KST, TWICE‘s Jungyeon welcomed singer Kim Jaejoong as a special guest on the inaugural episode of her YouTube show “The Inspector” titled ‘I Raided Kim Jaejoong’s Company.’ The episode was a candid exploration of their lives as seasoned idols, where they delved into their experiences, shared valuable insights, and toured the iNKODE building. The dynamic duo also enjoyed a meal of spicy food, sparking interesting conversations.

During their journey to the restaurant, Kim Jaejoong revealed his unique method of stress relief—eating spicy food. He shared anecdotes about his penchant for drinking alone, even mentioning a recent outing where he enjoyed makgeolli at a convenience store. Jeongyeon found herself resonating with the simplicity of such moments, highlighting the comfort and relaxation found in everyday pleasures.

“We can’t do those kinds of things as part of our daily routine, so doing those small things makes me happier,” Jeongyeon said. “There was a time when I had to stop my activities [as a singer]. After that, I think I’ve been trying to keep my mind more at ease,” she added.

Jaejoong then asked how she has taken care of herself after resuming group activities. “These days, I’m trying to find more hobbies. It gives me motivation. Thinking ‘After work, I can do my hobby’ gives me strength,” Jeongyeon said. Jaejoong then offered some advice as a veteran performer.  The exchange underscored a shared sense of normalcy and authenticity in their lives outside of their public personas.

The episode not only showcased their friendship but also offered a glimpse into the personal lives of two of K-pop’s most beloved artists. Jungyeon’s candid conversation with Kim Jaejoong provided fans with a deeper understanding of their journeys, struggles, and the small joys that keep them grounded. The show promises to be a refreshing take on the lives of idols, bridging the gap between their public and private selves.
