Jung Joon Young talks about picking boogers, eating red ants, clogging up toilets, and farting on 'Radio Star'

Halloween maybe a day away but rising male solo artistJung Joon Youngtalked about some horrifying stuff on the October 30 installment ofMBC's 'Radio Star,' which focused on dirty habits.  On this day, he addressed the misunderstanding that he was rejected by his first love because he ate his booger and he also talked about eating red ants.



Jung Joon Young said, "When I was around nine years old, I ate red ants.  I ate it because I thought doing so in front of my peers would make me appear dignified."


In response, the MCs asked if that desire to show off was the reason for eating his booger.  Jung Joon Young said he thought so, but further explained, "It's not that I was rejected for eating a booger, but while talking about my first love, I once wondered aloud, 'Was I rejected for eating my booger?'"


He then went into detail about how even when he picked his nose now, sometimes he thought he threw the booger aside, but it had actually flung itself over his finger without his knowing so that, at a later time, if he put his fingers by his mouth, he would accidentally taste it.


He explained, "I think of it like this.  Any person would have once wiped his or her booger on a car at least once . . . or under a table or next to the bed."


In addition, according to Jung Joon Young's staff, "Whenever Jung Joon Young goes to the bathroom, the toilet gets clogged."  Kim Gu Rasaid it was probably from using a lot of toilet paper, but Jung Joon Young replied, "I only use two sheets of toilet paper.


He then related a "fart story" from 'Super Star K.'  He really had to fart so he first asked, "Is it okay if I farted?"  He said he was going to do it anyway, but thought it was polite to at least ask.  Afterwards, everyone left the entire room because of the foul smell, which Jung Joon Young claimed was one of his "Best 3 smells."
