JYP Ranks Character As The Most Important Qualification During The Survival Show ‘SIXTEEN’

JYP received media spotlight for choosing "character" as the most important qualification during SIXTEEN.

During the 7th episode of SIXTEEN on June 16, JYP and SIXTEEN members were seen camping outside for a special lecture by JYP.

JYP explained character as the most important qualification of being a JYP artist. During his lecture, he wrote a few swear words on a whiteboard and said, "Do you think I swear or not? I used to, at private gatherings. But my views changed in 2010 and I haven't sworn ever since. A person's character is more important than his or her musical skills. Sincerity, humility, and perseverance are also important."

"You need to become a person who doesn't have to consciously watch her words. If you don't swear already, good. If you do, I want you to stop starting today," JYP added, "this isn't so you can become a celebrity. This needs to be done for you to become a good person."

After the lecture, SIXTEEN members voted Jihyo as the nicest and the most talented member of the group. Jihyo humbly commented, "Being a JYP trainee for a long time helped."

SIXTEEN is a girl group survival show that airs every Tuesday at 11 PM KST.
