2PM, the bestly idols' first Japan tour turned out to be extremely successful.
The boys finally appeared on "PICK UP PHOTO" this time.
We had a shooting in studio in Tokyo. All the members were cheerful and the shooting went on very smoothly with their bright personalities. They talked about the tour as well.
----Tell me your impressions of your first tour in Japan.
Junho: I was very happy to visit each city in Japan. It was very new and fresh experience to me. The venues were very small so the fans and we could feel each other and enjoy the performances together.
Nichkhun: It was fun to feel the fans in such small venues. We should use this experience to make the next stages better.
Chan: Of course I enjoyed a lot visiting many cities and fans, but I am really happy that I had so many famous delicious dishes.
Taec: (In Japanese) I was so touched that many fans came to see our stage. The next tour is coming up soon. I am very excited about it.
Wooyoung: (In Japanese) I was very happy to enjoy the performance together with fans. Yes, that's all.
----Which city stands out in your memory?
Chan: (In Japanese) During this stay in Japan, Wooyoung and I went to *Onsen (*hot springs) near Tokyo. It was *Rakuraku actually. (*easy, comfortable/ In some other random interview he said it was the latest word in Japanese he's learned.)
Junho: (In Japanese) Me, Taecyeon and Nichkhun went to Disneyland. We had so much fun there.
Taec: (In Japanese) 12 people recognized us and I was so happy. I counted.
Nichkhun: Personally, I loved Sapporo. The weather was nice and the different types of food were delicious. (In Japanese) I liked Miso ramen, it was so good!!
Wooyoung: For me, because I've been to Nagoya for Dream High shooting before, I have such a good impression there.
Junsu: Although I liked all the cities, Fukuoka was the most memorable one. The hotel was just in front of the ocean and I liked the view too.
----How was your health condition?
Junho: I was OK.
Taec: (In Japanese) I'm OK now, but 3 of us got flu during the tour.
----Who did?
Chan: Taecyeon, Junsu and Nichkhun.
Nichkhun & Wooyoung: We had garlic injection.
Junho: Oh I can smell garlic...
----Many of your Japanese fans came to see you. What would you like to tell them?
Junho: At first, I am very thankful to you for coming. We started something new with Take Off, so I hope we will have other oppotunities to see you in the future.
Nichkhun: I hope that JYP Nation concert will be stunning.
Chan: (In Japanese) Thank you very much for having come. See you at the next tour.
Wooyoung: In fact, we are getting ready for the new single after Take Off. I am confident with this one, so please look forward to it.
Junsu: (In Japanese) I felt much love from the Japanese fans.
----Are there any differences between Japanese fans and Korean fans?
Junsu: Whichever country they are from, the heart they love us with is the same. We are always very thankful for it. (Members applause)
----JYP Nation...?
Taec: This coming August 17th and 18th, we will be holding events with our JYP family. A lot of JYPE artists will join in. We are preparing some performances that we cannot do with 6 members. Please look forward to it.
