[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Park Hee-eun] Jo Kwon showcased his variety show skills that made his two-year hiatus seem meaningless.

On the 4th, JTBC's 'Knowing Bros' featured Jo Kwon, Jang Woo-young, Song Min-ho, and P.O as transfer students.

From the moment he appeared, Jo Kwon ran up to Kang Ho-dong saying, "Hey guys, hello. How long has it been?" He then introduced himself as "the original variety idol who fulfilled his military duty and the 'eternal Kkap Kwon'."

Regarding why he chose 'Knowing Bros' as his first broadcast after discharge, he mentioned that he watched it a lot while in the military. Jo Kwon claimed to be a devoted viewer of 'Knowing Bros,' even when male guests appeared.

When asked if there were any juniors who could succeed him, he firmly said no, eliciting laughter.

Additionally, Jo Kwon expressed affection for his nickname 'Kkap Kwon,' saying even elders ask if he is Kkap Kwon when they see him. He explained, "It's truly a nickname given by the public," adding, "I received all kinds of criticism back then, but as time passed, it became my signature."

Jo Kwon cited his 'pelvis' as his strength. He added, "My pelvis has established many things. It built my family and my honor. Many people know that I'm good at shaking my pelvis."

Notably, Jo Kwon performed the 'Animal' stage, which became a hot topic for wearing 19 cm heels, on the broadcast.

Jo Kwon expressed his joy about returning to variety shows by saying, "After shaking my pelvis for a long time, I feel refreshed."
