During the Chuseok special broadcast of 'Strong Heart', BEAST's Doojoon revealed his pre-debut stories. Doojoon said, 'After getting 3rd place at JYP's first open auditions, I went to film a reality program with 2AM and 2PM. However, in the end I was eliminated.' At the time, there was a considerable distance between Doojoon and JYPE's 7 year trainee - Jo Kwon. Doojoon revealed, 'Jo Kwon really disliked me.' Even though Doojoon failed to qualify for 2AM and 2PM, he soon debuted under JYP's sister company, Cube Entertainment. Doojoon added, 'Not long ago, when we won 1st place, our friends from 2AM sincerely congratulated us. We cried a lot.' It's always so refreshing to see idol stars being close friends, especially evolving relationships like Doojoon and Jo Kwon's.
