SEE ALSO: Joo Won sighted at his final filming for '1 Night 2 Days'
In a cafe in Apgujeong, Seoul on the 15th, Joo Won revealed that it was his humble nature which led him to leave the show. He shared, "I always felt sorry to my members. I still feel regretful and sorry... Because I am not the type to easily share my feelings and concerns, I never discussed leaving the show with the members... Although my hyungs always cheered me on saying, 'Just the way you are is the best,' I think I felt like I was lacking. Whenever I read viewers' comments, such as 'Why did he join?' and 'Why is he still here?', my sorry heart felt heavier."
"I thought that I could do well if I stick with '1N2D' for one year. But I started to feel how much I was lacking much more strongly, so in the end, I decided to leave... I at least wanted to tell them the news that I was leaving personally. After hearing that the articles about it came out, I immediately called my members and told them the truth. I am thankful that my hyungs understood, and I feel sorry. I had a good time."
In response to KARA's Seungyeon confessing her love for Joo Won on the recent broadcast of '1 vs. 100', Joo Won also expressed his positive feelings for her. "I was very surprised. I once saw Seungyeon while performing a musical with SS501's Park Jung Min. I remember her being charming and pretty... Out of my past work, it seems Seungyeon likes Shi On from 'Good Doctor'. It's really an honor. I feel thankful, and it felt good to hear that."
Joo Won also revealed that he still receives an allowance, "I receive an allowance of 1 million KRW (~$936 USD)... Compared to how it used to be, it has increased a bit... Excluding my allowance, the rest of my income is managed by my mother. Because I don't even drink, I have money left over. I don't have a credit card. I haven't made a credit card in my name yet."
