In the latest episode of SBS’s Uh, But Like, Seriously, 2PM members Nichkhun, Ok Taecyeon, Jun. K, Wooyoung, and Chansung appeared as guests and looked back on some of the group’s most memorable moments.
During the episode, the members revisited the legendary shirt-ripping performance from their “Heartbeat” promotions. Ok Taecyeon explained that the moment was not exactly planned as a calculated performance. Rather, the shirt naturally tore during the stage. Nichkhun jokingly added that the performance may have led to stricter broadcasting standards.
I think that’s when the regulations started.

Then, Nichkhun addressed a photo that had recently drawn attention for making him look heavier than usual. The idol explained that he had gone home to Thailand earlier in the year when he had no scheduled activities, and he ended up eating a lot while he was there. However, after seeing comments on a YouTube video saying that he had “aged,” Nichkhun said he was shocked.

He then revealed that he went on an extremely restrictive diet afterward.
At the beginning of the year, I didn’t have any schedules, so I went to my house in Thailand and ate a lot. Then I saw a YouTube video, and when I saw people saying, ‘He’s gotten older,’ I was shocked. For three days, I only ate three eggs while dieting.
