CNBLUE's Jung Yong-hwa revealed that he was a fan of Wonder Girls and Girls' Generation during his school years.

On the 3rd, a video titled "Music Festival is Pinggyego" was released on the YouTube channel 'Tteun Tteun.' In the video, Yoo Jae-suk, Joo Woo-jae, Soran's Go Young-bae, CNBLUE's Jung Yong-hwa, and Han Roro appeared to discuss various topics.

When the conversation turned to singers they had liked in the past, Jung Yong-hwa revealed that he had been a fan of Wonder Girls during his third year of high school.

Jung Yong-hwa recalled, "I was a big fan of Wonder Girls in my senior year of high school. When they came to Busan for their 'Tell Me' promotion, I skipped night self-study to go watch them perform."

He also said he had skipped night self-study to see Girls' Generation. Jung Yong-hwa stated, "Girls' Generation was coming to a venue near our school during the promotion of 'Into The New World,' so I skipped night self-study again to go see them."

He explained that K-pop idols were incredibly popular among students at the time, with music videos being watched on repeat. Recalling the era when he used to watch music videos on his PMP, Jung Yong-hwa shared that friends would often talk about how many times they had watched a particular music video in a single day.

Later, after debuting with CNBLUE, Jung Yong-hwa found himself active during the same period as Wonder Girls and Girls' Generation, the groups he had loved enough to seek out in person during his school days.

When Yoo Jae-suk asked how it felt to meet the stars he had admired during his school years after debuting, Jung Yong-hwa replied, "Most of them are my age, and it was really amazing." He added, "It felt like 'Wow, I made it' because the celebrities I used to go see as a student were now active alongside me."

In particular, Jung Yong-hwa had previously gained popularity as the "Yong-Seo Couple" after pairing up with Girls' Generation's Seo-hyun as virtual spouses on MBC's "We Got Married" in 2010.
