Host: Is there any K-pop you are keeping an eye on these days?

Je Hoon: Oh yes, it’s Jungkook.

Host: You are going down a difficult path.

Je Hoon: Ah, he’s so cool, and every time I see him, I really want to be like him, but I just restrain myself from doing so because I feel like I’ll never be able to imitate him like that and produce a performance like him.

Fans, after seeing the interview, hoped that maybe he would dance to one of Jungkook’s songs at his next fan meeting! Previously, he has shown off his dance moves through practice videos and at fan meetings!

He’s danced to “Hype Boy” by NewJeans…

I am so excited now for next year’s fan meeting!

Looks like we will have to wait and see until next year’s fan meeting to see if he really does take up the challenge!
