Junjin made his debut in KSB2 "Dream Team" where he was extremely competitive, and he soon earned the nickname "all-around sportsman", making him famous. In "Infinity Challenge", his aggressive competitiveness is constant. Even over trivial matters, he always has an eager desire to win, and what the other members would just normally gloss over and finish easily, he accomplishs with so much enthusiasm, sometimes weakening himself in the process.
May it be breaking wooden chopsticks with his butt muscles or filming a music video in front of many people... the challenge may be funny and he may look pitiful while doing it but he does it sincerely -- he faces it head on.
Because of his immense enthisuasm, members fondly refer to him as "백만돌이/1 million guy" [contextually, this nickname is alluding to an Energizer battery ad in Korea -- a guy who is so active, who is in 1 million places at a time], "Eagle eye".
