To me, it seems as he was definitely affected by the whole Taiwan China thing, as Hong Kong has a similar political standing. Do you remember the protests in Hong Kong? They were somewhat about China politics inside special administrative districts. You can see this in Jackson's interactions and speech, how he doesn't ever say Taiwan (and neither does Tzuyu) and only brief mentions of Hong Kong, but they really hammer in the words China a bunch, as well as using the Mandarin language more (even though his native tongue is Cantonese).
+Ethan Chou ikr. when cho youngnam and kyungkyu said Jackson is a Chinese person, but he didn't mentioned anything about hong kong and let it be. I don't know why but I feel hurt (I'm not a hongkonger tho).
+Ethan Chou Not only that but that's mostly what Hong Kongers do (because I am one) especially when we eat, we occasionally give them a bit of the side dishes to their bowl, showing respect.
+Ethan Chou Note also that Jackson's activities have increased more in China as well, he's been on a few chinese programs, host of chinese version of take care of my refrigerator. He's being very careful, not affiliating himself with anything political. Probably the uppers at JYP have advised him to do so as well.
Jackson was being like a protective brother, awww, he took care of Tzuyu, like he tried to make her talk more, he helped her when she didn't know what to do/say, he ordered lemon tea, he put the food in her plate,... Aww i wish i have a bigger brother, especially one like Jackson (cause Jackson is basically perfect to be everyone: dad, brother, boyfriend, or just a really close friend), and I could somehow feel how he would treat me if i could be his sister since me and Tzuyu are the same age lol
I just love how Jackson takes care of Tzuyu silently. He ordered her Lemon Tea bc she's basically underage for drinking any alchohol etc, and he even opened the soda for her on (27:40) uwu and not to mention, he even put food on Tzuyu's plate
I am Korean. That is a misunderstanding. If you knew what kind of people they were, you would have understood their behavior. The very old guy Jo Young Nam is a very modern and immature guy for his age. He is a great artist, but he has been judged for his immature behavior many times. He is not a bad guy though. He lived in America when he was young, and he doesn't know much about Korean traditional things. That is why the younger man Lee Kyung Kyu did most of the guide. Lee Kyung Kyu was so happy to be with Jackson and Tzuyu. At the end of the show, he said the joy Jackson and Tzuyu gave him was so high that it was over the Great Wall. He was worried that Jackson and Tzuyu would have been bored so he tried to make it fun. And he was a bit shy to reveal his feeling.
Lol tzuyu 😂😍 no wonder she is the savage maknae 😂.still its sweet how jackson treats tzuyu like a little sister. They look adorable like brother and sister from another mother
haha i love it when tzuyu get to variety shows... if she is on the show where there are lots of actions then she will be good at it... but like these kind of show requires talking and she is the quiet type and no external character, i think maybe she is not used to it... maybe she will be ok in few years later... bte i love to see the 20-90s talk... is so interesting^^
+Arriss3 I was talking about other shows. This is the 3rd time he's been scrubbed on a tv program that I know of. First by Seho on Roommates, then by Kim Heung Kook on Taste of Others, and now here by Kyungkyu
+anisha Poudel He would be to wild for me as a bf this man is to much to handle ;-) but he is really humble and kind and deserves what he earned himself , he is working hard and I can only respect him for that
I think it's cause she is just meeting them for the first time so she is a bit shy but after awhile she opens up and is just as silly and crazy like her members
Tyuzu’s mis-statement is so freaking hilarious how the situation matched her mistake so perfectly. But I must say it’s quite sad and noticeable how Tzuyu clearly isn’t able to eat as much as she wants and is only eating a bite of each little thing because she needs to maintain her idol body :/ but still her mixing up boring for fun was so damn funny
Omg Jackson is life!!! He is hilarious in whatever he does!! Love to see Tzuyu, Nayeon and Jongmin here too! Tzuyu saying it was boring was hilarious!! Sooo cute!! I feel like Jackson is closer with Tzuyu than with Nayeon. They're teasing each other more and Jackson is like an older brother to her :) Love seeing the elders too! Love hearing their stories :) I know Jackson and Heungook are close and I wish they were sitting together! Love those 2!
Being a mid 20s female, I really learnt a lot from the older generation. What stopped me the most is the phrase " we have time but we have nothing to do" by the 80s representative. Wow! We now have a lot to do but we dont have enough time, and later we might be like them, with a lot of time but nothing to do. That made me feel that I have to take care of my body in order to live long and to move slow in my life. No one wants to reach 80s of 90s and have nothing to do.
They talk about Jackson relationship.. Then suddenly KARA show up in their conversation! The first thing show up in my mind is JACKJI! OMG.. I miss them so much!!!
Jackson is a pure gem man.. Even after so much disrespect from them he treated everyone with kindness and care. Also took really good care of tzuyu .. 😊❤
Jackson made my day, so when I watched him on the show and then I laugh laugh laugh. . . . . always, some day I had a serious working so his gags help me feeling fresh and happy.
Based on the comments stated here, I think the creators of the show should have changed the title of the show, just for this episode, to A Look at Got7's Jackson... haha. But I'll admit, I'm happy that both Jackson and Park Joon Hyung agreed to be on the show together. I enjoyed watching their friendship on the show, Roommate.
Im from hong kong myself and honestly most of my friends back home all consider themselves Chinese and are proud of being Chinese. Of course there are also people with different beliefs and values in hk, but Jackson def does not feel forced into saying that he's Chinese. In fact, not only on this program but also everywhere else (instagram, radio shows, chinese and korean reality shows, predebut stuff, etc etc - for example, he posted on instagram long ago, long before tzuyu's thing happened, saying "Proud to be a Chinese") he has always proudly presented himself as a Chinese no matter what (both before and after tzuyu's taiwan thing he never changed) - which is really precious especially in Korea bc honestly he could just say he's from hong kong and nobody in China would blame him for it. He has only just been being himself. Hong kong and taiwan are no doubt different so I'm not going to comment on tzuyu's political attitude, but it really can't be clearer that jackson rly loves his country so I dont think anyone should feel hurt from him being called Chinese when Jackson himself obviously agrees with it.
jackson is so charming even able to be close n respect elders n that is why a lot of girls r falling head over heels for him. the fact that he is funny is also a bonus for him despite the fact that he is His own charm self.
same here ever since I saw the clip of tzuyu when she said it was boring which was a cute mistake I had to watch her episode and I am going to watch nayeon episode too
As a chinese, why do i felt like these two old folks are extremely rude to our language. I watched the other episodes and they always exaggarates the pronounciation and its making tzuyu and jackson very awkward.
Which i feel too, which give me a feeling Tzuyu saying"it was boring" is kind of a revenge for that and Jackson genuine reaction to it altought it meant to be funny
Came back here again for Nayeon and Tzuyu. ❤❤❤❤ My heart skipped a beat when Nayeon entered the door and appear like a goddess. Her smile is so pretty I can't get sick of it.
I love Nayeon, because Twice is my ultimate bias group but she is not the leader. Instead her position is the oldest unnie that brightens things up. Get it together KBS!
Coming back here and seeing how jackson taking care of tzuyu. So caring and gentlemen. While onces wishing jackson and got7 to disband and sending death threats. Gosh, onces really. Ahgases are nice bcz we follow our idol so pls dont do things that makes your idol look bad!
The two old men are selfish as heck. You brought Jackson and Tzuyu to Chinatown but didn't bother ordering real Chinese food... =_=" Jackson looked pissed there and then lol
30:25 kinda made me mad because he interrupted Jackson lol... I know how much Jackson really loves his parents (especially after watching roommate) Usually he is always smiling and joking around but when it comes to his parents he instantly gets serious and you see another side of him
Coz it's a variety show I guess the MC thought it would be funny. But i agree, it was a bit extreme not only to cut him off, but slap his shoulder (which he did a lot this episode).
