The idol has been known to have developed his athleticism and was recognized early on for being a fencing pro athlete. When MC Jung Hyung Don threw a sly question Jackson's way, asking him, "Why didn't you just keep doing fencing?" the idol answered, "I thought I'd be a totally awesome singer. I came to Korea to become a great singer because I like music. That's it," abruptly ending his speech. �
