Kim Jaejoong Recalls His Skinny Days, Confessing to “Rocker Disease” on ‘The Scout’

‘The Scout’ is officially setting sail, revealing everything from shocking eliminations to the results of the first main vote.

In the second episode of ENA’s growth-oriented music project ‘THE SCOUT: Reborn Star’ (hereafter ‘The Scout’), airing on the 15th, the final 16 Muses will be decided.

As the ‘Scout Stage’ proceeds with 17 Muses, curiosity is peaking over an unexpected elimination. The episode will showcase performances from Jo Yoonchan, a Muse with ‘webtoon male lead’ visuals, and musical actor Choi Haram. Notably, after Jo Yoonchan’s performance, Kim Jaejoong caught everyone’s attention by saying, “Rockers can be skinny. I was 59kg when I had ‘rocker disease’.”

The Masters, completely captivated by the Muses’ performances, showed their interest with a variety of questions. While Wendy gave a thumbs up, saying, “This is the best song I’ve heard among the Muses so far,” Kim Jaejoong threw a curveball by asking, “When was your first kiss?” Meanwhile, attention is also focused on the Muse Lee Seung-chul described by saying, “If you lose just 5kg more, it would be art.”

Following the Scout Stage, team matching will take place as the Masters take turns selecting Muses. Curiosity is growing as the Masters actively appealed to the contestants, using phrases like “You were my top priority” and “You’re currently number one in the draft.”
