Kim Jaehwan had a successful career at Wanna One. On that he describes the overall experience as feeling like a joke of destiny, because of all the intimate memories they have together. Kim Jaehwan also notes that unforgettable as those experiences may have been he doesn't want to start thinking of concerts as being too much like work.

He describes an anecdote from a fan meeting on White Day about calling the company Sweet Entertainment rather than Swing Entertainment, and the nickname stuck for awhile.

Though known for his great sense of personal effort Kim Jaehwan also notes the importance of people in his interview. He likens his own experience to just being a job, like that of any normal person.
