[101130] Jo Kwon is indeed a "dutiful son"!, bought a house for his parents who lived in a single-room apartment with his CF paycheck. 2AM Jo Kwon bought a house for his parents, who used to live in a single-room apartment at the basement, with the money he earned from shooting a CF. This heartwarming fact was belatedly known to the public. In the new book written together by the casts of MBC TV "Sebakwi", "Sebakwi - The Family Story", Jo Kwon revealed more of such facts for the first time. In this book Jo Kwon revealed how his family had not been a well-off family and the tough life they had living in a single-room apartment located at the basement, and how after he received his earnings from a CF, he bought a house under his mother's name and moved to their new house on September 4th. Jo Kwon said, "I told my manager not to schedule anything for me at the afternoon of September 4th. After I finished my morning schedule, I rushed to Suwon and packed all our stuff." He then expressed the emotional feelings he had when they moved to the new house, "There's plenty of sunlight pouring in at the new house. And there are three rooms." Moreover Jo Kwon also talked about how he was earnestly worried about his parents who kept supporting him silently during the 8 years of his training. "Parents of other trainees would come to the office and loudly demanded, 'Why does our child take so long to make a debut?'. But my parents never even once came to the office." "There was one time when I felt that the life of a trainee was extremely hard, so I phoned home, and without saying anything I just started to cry. At that time my mother said, 'It is alright if you want to quit now, but you hang in there. Whatever you choose Mommy will wait for you.' And that gave me strength," Jo Kwon expressed his gratitude toward his parents who have been a strong support. Apart from that, in the book Jo Kwon also talked about everything that happened during the 2,567 days of his training years and the friendship he shared with Wonder Girls' Sun Ye. "Sebakwi - The Family Story" (publiser: Woo Rin) is a compilation of essays about family written by the casts of "Sebakwi", including Park Mi Sun, Im Ye Jin, Kim Ji Sun, Jo Hyung Gi, Kim Gu Ra, 2PM Jo Kwon (t/n: they did it again, for crying out loud!). The book will be on sale in bookstores starting from the December 3rd. SOURCE: NATE TRANSLATION by suzelle@IAMfor2AM - 2AM International Forum

Aww...Such a sweetheart! he really has such a nice character.
I can understand why he is so frugal, and so this makes it even more special that he was willing to buy those gifts for GaIn for her birthday and their anniversary!

I cried. I did. ㅠ.ㅠ I cried when reading what his mom said to him on the phone. He has endured a lot during his training years, but he's doing so good now that I can only feel proud of him. He is a good kid. ㅠ.ㅠ

Kwon is a beautiful child. Seriously, to be loved by so many people in the entertainment scene only testifies to his good nature. Especially the older generation like MiSun, etc, he's amusing but to them I believe they see him as someone who they would love to have as a child.
I don't spazz about this boy. Cos I don't love him. I respect him.

That reporter ! Maybe you can cut that part suzelle ah ^^
This year, Kwon worked really hard Glad that he can do sth for his parents if they hadnt supported him like that, we might not have "kkab kwon" , a talented singer, an amazing entertainer ...

wahahah! I emailed tvdaily! ... seriously... If it's foreign media and they got it wrong, I'm fine. But by mixing this up, it's almost like saying only 2PM can have such famous individuals. =.= I might be reading too much into it.. BUT STILL!!!

I was listening to 2am's song, YWAMC, kwon's part, while reading this. Makes my heartache. I will never know how much he 'suffered' during his training years. but definitely see his effort and hardwork. Glad that its paid off, glad that his parents were understanding. I respect Jo Kwon. *salutes*

That is why Kwon was so frugal and he just earns his keep. He's such a dutiful son. And for him to buy Ga-in an expensive gift was a beautiful move, it goes to show how important she is to him. His parents are lucky to have him. He's an only child that is why maybe he is close to his mother.
