2PM Nichkhun "Junho's Cousin is a Baseball Player"




On the May 14th broadcast of MBC's "We Got Married" it was revealed that 2PM member Junho's male cousin is a professional baseball player, a pitcher for the Doosan Bears named Kim Sun Woo.

For this broadcast, Nichkhun and Victoria took on a mission to do the opening pitch and bat for a baseball stadium that can accommodate 20,000 people.

Victoria has experience in pitching and was once selected first place as the "Celebrity Who is Most Skilled at Pitching," however as a beginner in baseball, Nichkhun sought the help of member Junho. Nichkhun revealed, "Junho's cousin is a professional baseball player." 2PM Junho's cousin Kim Sun Woo was once a Major League pitcher for the Boston Red Socks.

When Junho learned of their opening pitch and bat mission, he joked, "It's going to be embarrassing," and caused unease afterwards by saying, "Videos of the opening pitch and bat will be uploaded on the internet."

He continued by explaining simply, "I'll teach you some pointers. Keep your eye on the ball. Something will happen," discouraging Nichkhun and Victoria by finishing with, "There should be lots of places nearby where you can do some baseball practice."

Unexpectedly, netizens who watched the show commented, "I'm really surprised that Junho and Kim Sun Woo are cousins," "It's strange how an idol and a professional baseball player are relatives."
