Epik High’s Tablo recalls being assaulted by a senior during his rookie days.
On May 29th KST, a new video titled “Mithra Finally Reveals His Hidden Favorite Spot After 10 Years (Potato Pancakes + Spicy Chicken Feet, Let’s Go)” was uploaded to Epik High’s official YouTube channel.
In the video, while talking with his fellow members about relationships and people, Tablo brought up a painful memory: “Do you remember those seniors who suddenly came in and hit us back in the day?”
To this, DJ Tukutz replied, “There’s only one XX that comes to mind.”
Tablo continued, “I’ll never forget what that senior said after hitting you guys and then calling me into a room.” He recalled the senior telling him, “I don’t like you because you don’t seem very friendly.”
Tablo responded at the time, “With all due respect, it’s hard for juniors to act warm when you treat them this way.” However, he said, “The senior kept twisting it to make me out to be the bad guy.”
Reflecting on that moment, Tablo added, “Ironically, our team never disbanded, and we’re still together after all this time. Maybe you don’t always have to act overly warm. We may not always seem affectionate—we fight all the time—but when it really matters, we’re like family.”
He went on to say, “When Tukutz went through a hard time, we were the first to show up. And when I struggled, they were the first ones there for me. That’s why I hope people won’t fear being called cold. As long as you’re warm to a few, that’s enough.”
