[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Park Hee-eun] GOD leader Park Jun-hyung opened up about the 'age controversy' after revealing on MBC's 'Oppa Saeng-gak,' which he appeared on in the past, that he lied about his age when he debuted.


He candidly stated on the recent broadcast, "I lied about my age at the beginning of my debut, saying I was born in 1975," adding, "There were times when the younger members spoke to me informally."


Then, when MC Lee Sang-min said, "I spoke informally to Park Jun-hyung because he said he was two years younger than me," Park Jun-hyung retorted, "(Lee Sang-min) was completely ssa-gal-seu ba-gal-seu (rude). He always came wearing a mink coat. He looked like a bear," humorously lightening the atmosphere on set.


Park Jun-hyung also mentioned the controversy about not being of Korean nationality, saying, "I looked so strange that people couldn't guess my age. That's why I could keep it a secret."



His actual birth year is 1969, making him 52 years old this year.
