Jang Wooyoung is a JYP executive..I'm going to regret it



2PM Jang Woo-young regretted it a lot.

On the 16th 'Random' channel, a video of '251016 mini-ping high school: Yoo Jae-seok, Jo Se-ho, Jang Woo-young, and Hwasa @RandomEditing Room' was posted.

In the video, Yoo Jae-suk said "I heard from Se-ho that Woo-young is a JYP executive" and Jang Woo-young is not an in-house JYP director, but an external cooperation director. In the name of working hard, he showed humility.




Jang Woo-young then said "There is no stake", and Yoo Jae-seok regretted "I should have bought some". Jang Woo-young is also "That's right. I should have bought it. But I'm not interested in stocks, so I don't have a stake." Upon hearing this, Hwasa said "You should give some. That's cheap." Cho Se-ho explained "It's not that he was cheap, but he didn't buy it himself when he had a chance."

Jang Woo-young said, `I had a chance, but I didn't buy it. When renewing the contract for the first time, they usually give you a choice (between equity and cash)."At that time, I didn't know what the company would be like, so Jinyoung's giving 2PM a choice itself doesn't feel like acknowledging his hard work, but it feels like he should invest in the company, so I thought about it for a few days, and he just told me to give it to him in cash, not equity."," he said, explaining the situation at the time. Yoo Jae-seok responded, "'I gave it to him with what he could see for sure. JYP said, "It's okay."

However, Jang Woo-young could not hide his regret, saying, `I did, but when I turned around, I was going crazy.' As of 2023, JYP Entertainment's market capitalization has increased 16 times. Yoo Jae-seok also went up too much. Who knew it would be like this afterwards?" he said.




When asked how long he thought he would live if he went back to the past, Woo-young Jang said, "I just live everything. I'm going to put it all in.", he replied, drawing laughter. Hwasa said "I said, "I also said I would give it to the previous company, but I didn't know, so I just said it's okay." and Cho Se-ho said "We can't help but do financial technology." Looking back, there are so many things I missed."

Yoo Jae-seok said, `Not many people have earned profits from stocks,' adding, `It's very important to keep assets, but it's not just about having money. The value of money gradually decreases according to the inflation rate. So, I need to study a little bit" he advised.
