[09.01.15][News] Infinite Challenge PD: Junjin’s role will be clear soon

As a regular member of Infinite Challenge, what kind of character is Junjin on the show?

PD Kim Tae Hoon of MBC’s Infinite Challenge has great anticipation towards the development of Junjin’s character and role on the programme.

Since his first appearance as “the guy who just rolled in” in the Money Bag challenge on 21st June 2008, Junjin has become the 7th member of the cast. With his background as an idol group member, Junjin - with his extraordinary dance prowess - has been nicknamed ‘Junstin’, ‘Janjin’ by the viewers, a sign of their acceptance of him.

However, the IC members all have very distinct characters and functions on the show, and this is what Junjin needs to show to the viewers.

In an interview with PD Kim on 13th Jan, he said, “Prior to this, the characters and roles of the members, including Haha, took about a year before they were fixed. For Junjin, his role will be clear soon.”

He added, “While filming the bobsled special in Nagano from 7th to 11th Jan, there was some degree of conflict between the members due to their characters, and Junjin came in very useful in that case. Unlike the “foolish” image that the other members tend to have, Junjin will have a more active character that constantly develops.”

On the other hand, Junjin who suffered an injury during the filming in Nagano, has returned to Seoul and continued with filming for MBC sitcom He’s Coming and the rest of his work schedule.
