I'm so glad he's finally getting somewhere, he's been working so hard for so long, and never gave up. He turned up on Peak Time as a team of one and owned that show, he has changed so much, visibly, since his B.A.P. days. He more than completed his stated aim of raising his profile.

.

Nowadays he commands any team he belongs to, he's one of the people who draw the eye and keep it, he isn't just an incredible dancer operating at the back.

I'm so happy that a lot of the Peak Time groups/ performers seem to be getting management deals or are releasing promotions after the wrap up of that show.

Someone picking up Moon Jung Up after "Peak Time" feels like the biggest no brainer of all time. Every time he was on stage, I had a hard time focusing on anyone else and he brought a relaxed and confident personality to the competition that was always so nice to see. I'm so excited to see what he does next! :)
