Boy band 2AM member Jo Kwon apparently was at American R&B artist Ne-Yo's concert in Korea last night and got to squeeze in a visit backstage as well.

Photographs posted on Jo Kwon's Twitter account late yesterday showed the idol singer standing next to several people with a comment below saying, "With Ne-Yo's dancers... They have amazing showmanship."

Ne-Yo was back in Korea on Wednesday for the first time in two years, holding his third concert in the country which was attended by some 10,000 fans.

Jo Kwon, 21, is the leader of his ballad quartet which has been one of the most successful idol groups in the country since their debut in 2008.

He himself has extended his popularity through various variety programs with his witty sense of humor and dancing skills.
