Recently, 2PM member Nichkhun, who had been making headlines for appearing to have gained weight, revealed that he underwent a rigorous self-management regimen throughout his Japan concert tour.

On the 6th episode of SBS's 'Actually, It's True!', the members of 2PM are set to reunite on screen for the first time in a while and showcase their unique variety show talents.

During a recent recording session, 2PM recalled Taecyeon's days as 'Tear-Taecyeon,' revealing that he tore his clothes even on stages where there were no plans to do so, prompting everyone to try to stop him.

When suspicions arose that broadcast censorship standards might have been established because of Taecyeon, he explained that he also suffered due to his 'Tear-Taecyeon' image, such as having sudden topless scenes added to dramas, which drew laughter from the audience.

Following this, 2PM opened up about the hardships faced by idols in their 18th year of career. Nichkhun recently confessed that he was shocked by comments saying he had gained weight and managed his diet by eating only three boiled eggs throughout the Japan concert period. In response, Lee Su-ji said, "Actually, I'm glad you've gained weight; it feels like we're getting closer," which brought laughter to the set.

Previously, Nichkhun made headlines at the end of April for appearing heavier than before at Taecyeon's wedding and in a May early 2PM YouTube video. However, during the 2PM Japan 15th-anniversary commemorative concerts held on May 9th and 10th at Tokyo Dome, he regained his sharp visuals reminiscent of his prime, once again drawing attention.

Taecyeon also revealed behind-the-scenes footage from a video call fan signing event. Although Taecyeon hesitated to show affection out of embarrassment, upon hearing a fan say, "Oppa, this is a paid service," he snapped into action and performed an 'explosive display of affection,' causing the room to erupt in laughter.

Jun.K also shared an anecdote from his military days when he was shocked by Taecyeon's visit. Taecyeon had come to their unit wearing a uniform with a squad leader's insignia, leading everyone to mistake him for an officer. While Taecyeon explained that he "didn't have time to stop by home," Jun.K revealed that he arrived in an open-top car and even received salutes from the guards at the guard post, turning the scene into one of laughter.

Meanwhile, when asked who among the soloists Nichkhun, Jun.K, Wooyoung, and Junho would get married last, Taecyeon replied, "I don't think anyone will get married," bringing laughter once again. The episode airs at 10:10 PM on the 6th.
